Product Information

Full details

The Powersheds 16ft x 18ft Timber Decking Kit is designed for homeowners looking to create a substantial and durable outdoor living area with minimal construction hassle. This kit offers an excellent balance of structural integrity and aesthetic flexibility, featuring high-grade pressure-treated timber that resists rot and environmental wear. While the pre-assembled modular components make installation straightforward for DIY enthusiasts, users should note that the significant footprint of this 16x18 model requires a level, firm foundation before assembly can begin.

FAQs

Does this kit include everything needed for assembly?

The kit includes the timber boards, modular base frames, and the required decking screws.

Can I use the deck without staining it?

Yes, the pressure treatment protects the wood, but staining or oiling is recommended to prevent graying and improve weather resistance.

How do I choose between the two board finishes?

The boards are reversible. Simply choose the side you prefer (ribbed or smooth) when laying the decking down.

Can this be installed on grass?

It is not recommended to install directly on grass as it will trap moisture and rot the timber. Always place the kit on a stable, drained foundation like gravel or a paved area.

How many people are needed for installation?

We recommend at least two people to handle the modular base sections and ensure the frame is square and level.

What tools will I need?

You will need a drill/driver, a spirit level, a tape measure, and a saw for any potential trimming.

Troubleshooting

Decking boards are wobbly or uneven

Check that your foundation is perfectly level. If the base frame is not level, the surface boards will not sit flush.

Screws are stripping or not sitting flush

Ensure you are using the correct driver bit size and that you have pre-drilled pilot holes if the wood is particularly dense.

Gaping between boards after installation

Wood is a natural material that expands and contracts with humidity. Ensure you follow the recommended gap spacing during installation to accommodate seasonal movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Modular design simplifies the installation process
  • Pressure-treated timber ensures longevity and rot resistance
  • Versatile dual-sided boards offer aesthetic customization
  • Includes all necessary high-quality fixings for a flush finish

Cons

  • Requires a perfectly level foundation for successful assembly
  • Large footprint necessitates significant garden space
  • Regular maintenance of wood finish may be required over time

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To ensure a successful installation, follow these guidelines:

  1. Foundation Prep: Clear the area of all vegetation and lay a weed-suppressant membrane. Ensure the ground is firm, flat, and level; sand or compacted gravel is recommended.
  2. Assembly: Layout the modular base sections according to the provided instructions. Use the included green screws, ensuring you drive them in until the heads are flush with the timber surface.
  3. Compatibility: This kit is designed for flat ground. If your site is sloped, additional support blocking or custom leveling may be required.
  4. Maintenance: While the wood is pressure-treated, applying a high-quality deck oil or stain annually will help preserve the color and provide an extra layer of moisture protection.
