Looking for quality decking boards near you? Houthandel Jan Sok supplies hardwood, Douglas and pressure-treated timber decking and delivers across the Netherlands - order online and we bring it to your door or job site. This guide explains the main decking types so you can choose the right boards for your terrace, balcony or covered garden.

Hardwood decking

Tropical hardwood decking (bangkirai, ipe-style species) is extremely hard-wearing and dimensionally stable, lasting 25+ years with minimal maintenance. It's the premium choice for pool surrounds, high-traffic terraces and commercial projects. Browse our hardwood decking range.

Douglas decking

Douglas fir offers a warm, natural look at a lower price than hardwood. Left untreated it weathers to silver-grey; oiled, it keeps its colour. A great fit for private terraces with normal use.

Pressure-treated timber decking

Searching for pressure-treated timber near you? Kiln-dried, pressure-treated (impregnated) softwood decking is the most budget-friendly option and resists rot in damp conditions - ideal for ground-level decks and garden structures.

Composite decking

Composite boards are virtually maintenance-free: no oiling, no splinters. Allow for thermal expansion gaps. A solid choice if you want a low-maintenance deck.

Decking for a covered garden

Pairing your deck with a covered garden canopy or veranda? We also supply Douglas and hardwood for pergolas, overhead structures and garden canopies, so your decking and cover match in material and tone.
