Pea Gravel
A great affordable decking option is always pea gravel. Pea gravel consists of small, smooth, rounded stones used to create aggregate concrete surfaces. Round gravel about the size of peas, often used for paths, decks or driveways.

Pavers
The use of concrete pavers, often referred to as paving stones, is growing rapidly on both commercial and residential construction projects. Pavers interlock together to form a patterned surface which can be put into service immediately. Pavers are manufactured in various textures and colors. A big benefit of pavers is that they can be removed and re-installed, which reduces future service interruptions.

Wood
The most popular choice of deck materials in the US, primarily because it is long-lasting and the most economical. About 80% of pressure treated wood is Southern yellow pine, although other plentiful local species are used in some areas. Grain patterns are prominent; its initial greenish color becomes a honey brown before fading to gray.

Flagstone
Flagstone decks have become increasingly popular as more homeowners want their backyards to have the feel of nature. A flagstone deck consists of hundreds of pieces, fitting together like a jigsaw puzzle. The natural flagstone design gives the deck a good "Natural" look
