    Guys,
    Someone suggested I used Red Deal for our deck but I am lost as to what this is and whether it is a hard wearing wood. Is it a glorified pine?

    Is there a pic of it on this site?

    Red deal usually comes from the red pine tree (Pinus resinosa)

    We have it in our house and it dents easy.

    If I was planning on decking i'd pick a harder wood.

    So ye would not recommend this as a good timber for decking?
