Decking FAQ
We specialise in building
timber decking to any shape or size. Decking gives a great feel under foot
and can transform outdoor living. People with decking use it as an
'outside room' and it's a great place to relax or entertain friends & family.
Decking is also the perfect answer to gardens or patio areas that are otherwise
unusable because of their size or a slope or a drop in level. Wooden
decking is also very child friendly - no scraped knees!
A survey published recently found that
most estate agents claim it adds value to your property, making small spaces
appear bigger
The deck boards we use are non slip & have the
face of the board machined away leaving ribs proud of the surface. Take a look at
the decking photos page to see a picture.
Our decks are built properly - no compromise whatsoever. Built to the same
(or better) specifications as the floors in your house. We use 28mm thick
Scandinavian Redwood decking boards which are Tanalised (impregnated with wood
preservative in a vacuum pressure timber impregnation plant).
Pressure treated, heavy duty 6"
x 2" timber bearers, coach bolts or construction grade joist hangers, boards
screwed in place, not nailed.
Our decks do not move, bounce
or wobble!
Last year we built a deck to
hold a hot tub weighing over two tonnes - not a single creak, bounce or wobble!
Because we buy our decking timber & joists direct from a timber importer rather
than a DIY superstore, we can offer very reasonable prices. Believe it or
not, buying a Decking Kit from a DIY store and assembling it yourself could
actually cost more than having us build from scratch!
From 1 October 2008 putting up decking,
or other raised platforms, in your garden is permitted development, not needing
an application for planning permission, providing:
1) The decking is no more than 30cm above the ground
2) Together with other extensions, outbuildings etc, the decking or platforms
cover no more than 50 per cent of the garden area.
In our fully equipped workshop we can
build pergolas, gazebo's, arches, seating,
obelisks or any other garden structure you can imagine, to any
size you choose. We can fit them as well.
Unusual items like BBQ
shelters are not a problem, we can design to your requirements. Please call for a free
