How Does the Decking Calculator Work?

We've been supplying decking for nearly 40 years, so it’s second nature to us when putting together a list you need for building your decking.



Use this diagram to work out the width, length, deck height and joist size then fill in the calculator below and let us do the heavy lifting.



There are a few handy custom options in there to choose to make the design unique to you.

What Size Joists Should I Use For My Decking?

The right joist size is vital for a deck’s structural integrity and safety. The choice between 100mm x 47mm and 150mm x 47mm joists depends on factors like span length, joist spacing, and the load from furniture, people, and environmental factors like snow.



The decking material type and thickness are also key considerations, as heavier materials may require larger joists or closer spacing. Additionally, it may be worth checking with the local building control for some advice.
