Elevate Your Outdoors: Premium Yellow Balau Hardwood Decking
If you’re looking for a deck that works as hard as it looks, Yellow Balau is the overachiever of the hardwood world.
Known for its incredible density and natural resistance to the elements, this 145mm x 28mm profile offers a luxurious, high-end finish that’s built to last for decades.
One of the best features of this particular timber is its dual-profile versatility. One side features a sleek, Smooth finish for a contemporary look, while the other boasts a Castle profile for a more traditional aesthetic and added texture.
Rated as a Class 1 durability timber, it naturally resists rot, fungal decay, and insect attacks without the need for nasty chemical treatments.
Structural Strength: At 28mm thick, this is a heavy-duty board. It feels rock-solid underfoot and is far less prone to warping or flexing than thinner alternatives.
Stunning Aesthetics: When fresh, it glows with warm golden-brown and reddish hues. If left untreated, it matures gracefully into a sophisticated silvery-grey "driftwood" tone.
Fine Texture: It has a tight, interlocking grain that provides a smooth, premium feel, making it perfect for barefoot summer evenings.
Pro Tip: Hardwoods like Yellow Balau are incredibly dense. We strongly recommend pre-drilling your holes and using high-quality stainless steel screws to prevent snapping and avoid any unsightly tannin staining.
To maintain that rich golden glow, apply a high-quality UV-rated decking oil shortly after installation. If you prefer a low-maintenance lifestyle, simply let it weather naturally; it’ll still remain structurally sound for 20+ years.
Make sure to read our comprehensive care guide to ensure your hardwood decking remains in prime condition.
Quick and Easy Sampling - You can now order a sample, and we will strive to deliver it to you overnight for your convenience.
Important Note: To preserve the quality of your Balau decking, please keep it dry and sheltered from moisture until installation. As a natural product, timber can undergo movement due to atmospheric conditions, which may result in splits, shakes, or warping. These occurrences are normal and not classified as defects. We recommend allowing for a small percentage of waste when placing your order.
This is a brand new board profile and is not a match to anything eDecks have sold before, if you are trying to match to an existing profile, please contact us for advice before placing your order.

Why Choose Balau Decking?
We proudly refer to Balau hardwood decking as the "Rolls Royce" of decking materials for several compelling reasons:
Designed for Durability: Perfectly suited to the UK's climate, Balau decking is hard-wearing, knot-free, and aesthetically pleasing, showcasing a blend of rich orangey-brown hues.
Safety First: The anti-slip properties make it an ideal choice, particularly in areas prone to moisture. Originally used for marine applications, its design effectively combats slipping hazards.
Natural Resistance: With built-in resistance to fungal decay and insect damage, Balau is a tropical hardwood known for its tight grain, ensuring longevity and robustness.
At eDecks, we are committed to providing only the finest products. Beware of competitors selling substandard Balau; your investment deserves the best.
To maintain the stunning appearance of your hardwood decking, we strongly recommend using Ronseal Decking Oil. Applying this treatment will accentuate the wood's beautiful colours and is an affordable choice for upkeep.
Also the price on this batch has been reduced to clear due to it being last years stock so maybe slightly dusty.

Whether you're looking to create a stunning garden landscape, extend your living areas, or replace traditional stone patios, our timber decking offers countless possibilities.
To minimize splitting, we recommend using Spax woodscrews.
Please Note: Because timber is a natural material, there may be slight colour variations between samples and your final decking boards. Each piece of timber has its own unique grain and tone.
Please note: This product is supplied dual-sided, with a castle profile on top and smooth or ribbed on the reverse. We only guarantee the castle profile side when purchasing this product.
