The old deck removed, we were left with a blank canvas

The new joists arrrive and are laid out ready for additional treatment so that they will last as long as the hardwood decking being fitted to them

Additional wood preserver treatment applied and allowed to dry. This also stained the timber a darker colour so it could not be so easily seen beneath the top dress deck boards.

Now the joist work is laid out and set with a slight fall to allow water to run off and dry out the timbers after periods of rain.

The deck boards are now laid out and screwed to the joist work using special deck screws.

Applying the deck oil to preserve the life and colour of the hardwood.

Over head shot of the finished job. It looked fantastic in the low winter sun. This was done in February! Decking can be carried out all year round

I think the kids were happy with their new playground. So were we! It was a pleasure to carry out the work for such good clients.
