Our sorting criteria
Every decking board is checked by us for errors. However, not every irregularity is sorted out. You can find out in detail what you can expect from our manual sorting in our sorting criteria.

What our selected decking wood has in common: ✓ high durability ✓ very good technical properties ✓ sustainable origin. Here is an overview of the special features:
Cumaru
✓ best durability
✓ particularly robust and scratch-resistant
✗ partly rough surface
✗ high power development
Tip: Floorboards should be sanded after weathering.
garapa
✓ smooth surface
✓ homogeneous, light color
✗ Ferrous substances lead to discolouration
✗ unbolted tendency to warp
Tip: Terrace cleaning removes discoloration and professional interim storage avoids warping.
jatoba

Tip: Lay decking boards together.
Substructure: wood instead of aluminium
For this decking board, we recommend a substructure made of hardwood with very good resistance (at least class 1-2). We advise against an aluminum substructure, since the risk of the screws tearing off is too great here due to the rigidity of the material.
hardwood substructureAccessories for wooden terraces
Only work with accessories that have been tested and approved for use with this particularly resistant type of wood. Ask the manufacturer about suitability or choose products from our range that have already been tested for the specific application. You will find an overview of the accessories required for your terrace construction on this page grocery list. You will receive an individual and free calculation if you use our terrace planner use.

Since our move, we have now had our second terrace built with wood and planning from Betterwood. The wood is simply of the very best quality, the service and advice, the planning, right through to delivery simply couldn't be better. No matter how often I called, how often I wanted to ask questions, how often I needed tips - Philip was always available straight away and there to help us... even when the delivery couldn't actually arrive on time because our carpenter only had one week, the impossible was made possible, the wood was sent on its way "personally" so that everything went according to plan.
I can also highly recommend the oil, we have already tried various ones, for our Cumaru terraces the BioMaderas terrace oil in light is the very best, great color that freshens up the Cumaru and water just beads off without being slippery!
For me the most important point, "The good wood" is really, the good wood, sustainable & fair:
Wood from more responsible
Forestry. And you can follow this very well on the site, ask questions and even Galileo accompanied Betterwood on a trip, so you can also convince yourself with this program (if you still have any doubts).
Many, many thanks to the patient “planning hero” Philip and the whole team!

You don't have to and can't say much about it, just top quality.
You can already see that the boards will last forever.

Betterwood is a reliable, professional, friendly company.
When building my terrace, I received great and helpful support from Mr. Jürgens. It was always a friendly and professional conversation. The delivery came exactly to the minute and the material calculated by Mr. Jürgens was right down to the last screw. I would like to say a big thank you again for the effort and support, especially Mr. Jürgens.
I can highly recommend Betterwood.

Very friendly and competent advice! Timely delivery, just as promised. Super decking boards (Cumaru) and substructure. The floorboards were very straight and exactly 120 mm wide. The substructure and floorboards were always a bit longer (UK, for example, 5 cm) than indicated.
All in all I am completely satisfied. Highly recommended !!
Bärbel Schoenrade (via Google) -
In short, we are delighted. Very clear recommendation. Very friendly advice and unproblematic purchase process.
Our terrace was planned with the help of the terrace planner and we received a comprehensive offer very quickly. An extremely good calculation down to the last screw. Very nice decking boards (Cumaru)

Very clear recommendation. Great wood quality, friendly advice, great knowledge, practical tips, unproblematic purchase. What more do you want!? Would like to share another photo, but somehow it doesn't work.
Thank you very much

The length was probably appreciated and the packaging was completely inappropriate for the weight. It was enough for my project, but that is certainly not always the case with every customer. The wood is very nice, each slat is different but looks great if you like that. When sanding, the wood can split badly along the grain. I wouldn't do that to my floor.

Very good advice; individual appointment coordination and on time, goods (terrace wood) really good and everything as expected. Gladly again!

Thanks to the really easy terrace planner, the very friendly advice and the good feeling of not having harmed the environment, an absolute A+ with asterisks. Since I bought Cumaru and the terrace will be fun for 1 years, the price is more than justified. Also for amateur builders, how strongly recommended….

First the positives: the goods were available very quickly and the planking was almost perfect: we didn't have to sort out a single board. Unfortunately, that didn't apply to the UK, where two beams were so bent that we had to dismantle again. (We could have noticed beforehand) What really annoyed me personally, however, was the delivery itself: 220 euros is no small matter, especially considering that you have to unload yourself. But I would have gladly paid for it if the delivery had been as sustainable as the wood... But the opposite was the case: the driver, who only spoke Russian/Polish (a very nice guy by the way) came from POLAND at approx 40 km away from us to load the goods and bring them to us (and then drive back to Poland) There was nothing on the truck except our goods. This is by no means ecological and therefore the price for the delivery was exorbitant in my opinion. I'd be happy to pay a higher price, but not when such ecological madness is being pursued. Nevertheless: the wood Cumaru) is great.

Very good value for money

Beautiful wood, who appreciates it. Best quality !!!
Michael Seidl (via Google) -
I was excited. Only ordered a small amount of wood. The quality is good.
The delivery was very quick!
Unfortunately, DPD delivered the two packages separately, one day apart.
I would definitely order some wood there again.

I highly recommend this blade and this company. Mr. Jaeger was a very good advisor to us and patiently answered all of our questions. All agreements were kept. We are not very good craftsmen and despite the great help from Mr. Jaeger we got a very nice terrace. Thank you Mr Jaeger

I can only recommend Betterwood! We built our terrace (approx. 70 sqm) three years ago and have spent many pleasant hours on it since then. I look after it every year and am always pleased with the friendly and reliable contact. I get all the care products from Betterwood. Mr. Jaeger gives very good advice and his colleagues are also competent contacts. There were delays in the construction of our terrace at the beginning because the concealed brackets were not supplied by the manufacturer. After consulting Mr. Jaeger, an alternative was found immediately, discussed with me and a courier was even sent out on the same day so that we could start laying the boards that same day. I was also convinced that it was certified wood, so we could work with it with a clear conscience! We had previously searched for around 5 years and thought about how we could build our terrace and are glad that we made this decision.
Such a dream came true for us.
By the way, this is not a fake review !!!

After the great advice from Mr. Jaeger, I dared to lay my balcony with Cumaru wood without any prior knowledge. After I had precisely measured the substructure and then followed the installation plan, it was done in eight hours thanks to the quality of the tools that had been ordered. We have a fantastically beautiful balcony. The only thing that didn't work was the delivery with DPD.
Many thanks to the entire Betterwood team.
