Grooved oak terrace boards

The boards for finishing the floor on the terrace are most often made of oak wood. Those who have wooden parquets in the apartment appreciate its strength and attractive appearance, so they are happy to choose a similar solution for outdoor surfaces. Grooved oak terrace boards have a nice structure and colour, which turns into a patina after years of treatment.

Grooved oak terrace boards and their properties

Grooved oak terrace boards are grooved only on one side or on both sides. On the visible side there are grooves due to the outflow of water and creates an anti-slip effect, while on the non-visible side these grooves serve for the shape stabilization of the boards. This prevents them from twisting due to moisture.

The terrace board used for the construction of the terrace should have a thickness between 19 mm and 26 mm – the thicker the board, the greater its strength. It is important that when choosing thicker terrace boards, we can rely on certain savings associated with the need to use a smaller number of beams. Grooved oak terrace boards are from 2 to 5.5 m in length and from 9 to 15 cm in width. Terrace boards most often have a rectangular cross-section, but to reduce the visibility of the screws, the cross-section of the boards is profiled accordingly.

The most commonly used material for building a terrace is local wood, which not only looks good, but is also affordable. Grooved oak terrace boards have a pleasant appearance and are very resistant to attack by wood-destroying insects. Impregnation of boards significantly improves its strength properties and increases its lifespan by 12-15 years. Terrace boards have profiles with an angle at the ends of 90 degrees without chamfering, as is common with facade boards. Profiles for the so-called T-clip are also produced.
