It is recommended to prepare a level base before assembly for stability and ease of installation. The kit itself does not compensate for uneven terrain.

Yes, the deluxe decking boards are reversible, featuring a deep groove on one side and a smooth surface on the other.

What does 'F.S.C. approved' mean?

How long does delivery usually take?

For local deliveries from stores, there is a specific lead time. Deliveries outside local areas may have a 14-day lead time.

Troubleshooting

Decking boards seem uneven after installation.

Check that the base frame is level and securely fastened. Ensure each decking board is fixed correctly and uniformly.

Wood shows signs of premature wear or discoloration.

This could indicate insufficient annual protection treatment. Reapply a suitable decking treatment and ensure consistent annual application moving forward.

Missing fixing components.

Carefully check the packaging again. If components are genuinely missing, contact the retailer for replacements.

Difficulty cutting boards to size.

Use a sharp saw suitable for treated timber. Always wear safety goggles and a dust mask when cutting.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Simple and quick to assemble, ideal for beginners.
  • Durable and protected against rot and insects due to pressure treatment.
  • Environmentally conscious with F.S.C. approved timber.
  • Offers flexibility with reversible decking boards.
  • Comes with a substantial 15-year anti-rot guarantee.

Cons

  • Facia boards are not included and require a separate purchase.
  • Requires annual decking protection treatment to maintain the anti-rot guarantee.
  • Specific lead times apply for deliveries, which may vary.
  • The kit provides the decking and base frame only; additional landscaping might be needed.

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup: Ensure you have a level base prepared before starting assembly. The kit includes a fixing kit and DIY instructions; follow these carefully for optimal results. The base frame should be constructed first, followed by the attachment of the decking boards.

Compatibility: This kit is designed as a self-contained decking and base frame solution. It does not include facia boards, which must be sourced separately if a finished edge is desired. Ensure any additional materials purchased are compatible with the 28mm decking boards.

Care: To maintain the wood's condition and uphold the 15-year anti-rot guarantee, annual protection treatment is required. Regularly clean the deck surface to remove dirt, moss, and algae. Avoid using harsh chemicals that could damage the wood preservative. Inspect the deck periodically for any signs of wear or damage and address them promptly.
