Composite Decking For Your Restaurant, Pub & Cafe

Running a restaurant, cafe or pub is hard enough work in itself. Worrying about maintenance requirements of your weathering decking doesn’t need to be an additional stress! The importance of specifying a cafe, restaurant or pub decking material that is going to cause less hassle and look after itself is therefore high on the agenda for many!

Not only this, but you will no doubt be intensely aware of the short window available to you to maximise revenue during the warmer months. Adding a composite decking area to a balcony, veranda or terrace can dramatically multiply the number of covers you are able to cater.

NeoTimber® composite decking for pubs, restaurants and cafes offers a contemporary feel to your outdoor dining experience whilst retaining the beautiful aesthetics of traditional timber decking, without the upkeep. Choose a flooring solution which works hard, delivers a quality performance and is resilient, like you. We outline below why we have been the chosen product for many specifiers who are seeking a decking solution for their business operating in the leisure industry.

In a busy hospitality venue, waiters and bartenders will be scurrying hurriedly back and forth to deliver food and drink to tables. It’s important therefore that they are safe. Accidents happen, especially with young and inexperienced staff. However, one way to prevent slips, trips and falls of staff and customers is to install a safe slip-resistant decking solution.

NeoTimber® have designed slip-resistant composite decking for the ultimate safety of you and your customers. Unlike some other timber alternatives, like plastic, all of our products come supplied with a matte-effect finish. This, combined with a grooved or embossed woodgrain decking pattern means that it is easier for shoes to grip, even in wet conditions.

Many cafes and restaurants are run by a single person and all their time is spent ordering supplies, maintaining stocks and undertaking routine repairs. NeoTimber® composite decking never needs any maintenance, save for a seasonal decking clean down.

This means you’re not spending your rare and precious downtime repairing warped, cracked or broken timbers or fearing a lawsuit claim against damage through a board which has caused a customer to have injury. Composite decking is strong, durable and never requires sealing, painting sanding or varnishing. Installing composite decking can unlock time and finances for your cafe, restaurant or pub.

In the competitive realm of hospitality, staying afloat can be a challenge, especially when costs begin to exceed income. Minimising cost by investing in a durable solution means your company can continue to trade. This may sound extreme, but if it suddenly became necessary to replace your deck halfway through your busy period, how many covers would you lose and at what cost?

NeoTimber® is supplied with a 10-year commercial warranty, and even despite the constant use and exposure to the elements, our composite decking boards are designed to far exceed their warranty, giving you peace of mind for years to come.

It may be that you already have a timber deck installed around your pub, cafe or restaurant. Installing may have seemed like a good idea at the time, but the truth is that once you’ve stained or painted it, keeping it looking good is going be a constant uphill struggle. Whether you’re stripping yourself or you get a contractor, it’s going to cost, time or money it will still be a cost to you and to your business.

NeoTimber® offers a modern timber alternative which performs better than wood. Replacing timber with timber just delays the inevitable. The joists will still eventually rot and the boards will need replacing again. Composite decking with complementary composite joists is a no-rot solution which keeps you trading whatever happens.
