They can incorporate water features or spas. It is up to you to decide what you want to accomplish with your garden decking project.
Decks can be made from a variety of materials. Treated lumber is an industry standard. It is readily available and can be painted or stained a variety of finishes to match your home. However, it does age and have to be refinished and repaired over time. One of the new composite materials offers the look of wood with and almost maintenance free life. Other than periodic cleaning the composite does not fade and decompose.
If you still wish the beauty of real wood you have a lot of options. Teak is expensive but has an elegance that is timeless and goes with most any decorating theme. It does not require special treatments to protect it. Teak ages well and blends into its outdoor surroundings.
