When repair is no longer an option, Liverpool Decking provides a complete decking replacement service across Liverpool and Merseyside. We carefully remove your old, worn-out decking and replace it with a beautiful new deck built to the highest standards. Whether you're upgrading from timber to composite or simply replacing a deck that's reached the end of its life, our experienced team handles the entire process from start to finish.
When Is It Time to Replace Your Decking?
There are several signs that your decking may need replacing rather than repairing:
• Widespread rot or decay affecting more than a third of your boards
• Structural issues with joists, bearers, or support posts
• The deck feels bouncy, unstable, or unsafe underfoot
• Multiple boards are warped, cracked, or splintering badly
• The deck is more than 15-20 years old and showing its age
• You want to upgrade to a better material (e.g., timber to composite)
If you're unsure whether your deck needs repairing or replacing, we provide free assessments. We'll give you honest advice based on what we find.

Upgrade to Composite Decking
Many of our Liverpool customers choose to upgrade from timber to composite decking when it's time for a replacement. Composite offers significant advantages over timber, including minimal maintenance, superior longevity, and resistance to rot, mould, and fading.
While the upfront cost is slightly higher, the virtually zero maintenance costs over a 25+ year lifespan make composite decking excellent value for money. We'll help you understand the cost differences and long-term benefits so you can make an informed decision.
