I had intended to remove the patio at the rear of my house and install a small amount of decking in its place using the post method, however, when I removed the two patios laid on top of each other! I discovered the original concrete slab in good condition which makes building the deck a lot easier.
Anyhow, my question is does it need securing or not? I've read in places I could leave it floating and the weight will hold it in place, however I think I would rather have it secured down to the ground properly.
Would you secure it? and if so what kind of fixing would you use?
