Composite is supposed to be hardy and requires little care. But it's plastic...
Pressure treated softwood might do as long as it wasn't made up on a Friday - and it will be relatively cheap to replace when it finally rots. Make sure the joists and footings are hardy - you don't want to be replacing that.
i want to build a deck in the back garden and also some fencing. What sort of material should I be looking at - I want something that looks alright but won't need constant painting or maintenance. I live in Glasgow so it'll need to be very weather proof.
