Project Summary:
- Wanted to install composite decking in front of his garden room and around pond to match anthracite windows – approx 15sqm
- Wanted a high quality board that wouldn’t fade and has a high non-slip resistance
- Installed in a low footfall area
- Opted to stainless decking clips for less of gap between boards that look more seamless
- Used timber joists from another supplier and decking joist tape to stop rotting of timber joists
- Installed himself and he’s a DIY er and found the process easy due to our installation guidelines.
- Not sure what was there before but the garden room is cedar cladded but wood not composite
Researched my options for composite decking suppliers and chose Assured Composite having read their website’s installation guides/case studies/blogs and on receipt of their sample products (liked the colour, quality, finish).
Ordering was easy and was received in perfect condition shortly afterwards. Customer service/support was excellent when dealing with an issue.
I built a timber subframe (using products from a separate supplier) but referred to the guide provided by Assured. Laying the actual deck (approx 5 x 3m) outside my garden office was not difficult following the guides and ensuring you used the advised tools. I did this on my own as a medium-level DIYer.
Very happy with the results and my family are pleasantly surprised (ie shocked) at how “professional” it has come up.
Can recommend to anyone considering a similar project.
