Advice for preparing the ground
Ensuring water drainage: On all non-draining ground, you must ensure a slope of at least 10 mm per linear metre, parallel with the joists’ length, for water to run off, while also making sure water does not collect at the lowest point of the decking.
Slip resistance of the Elegance range
What is the slip resistance and classification of our Elegance deck boards?
Choosing an Elegance or Emotion board
The Elegance board is monochrome, which gives you creative freedom! It is available in 4 colours: Dark Grey (Anthracite), Light Grey (Iroise), Dark Brown (Exotic) or Light Brown (Colorado).
