Hi, thanks for the replies so far. I looked into composite frames but they are no good for raised decking so I am staying with the wood option. Pulled the old deck up today and the frame had rotted (for the last 3 or 4 years I covered the deck with fake grass so it never really dried out). As I...

Any help please folks

Hi, I want to deck 2 areas of my garden with composite decking, just looking for advice please. Area one is 2.5m x 2.5m and area 2 is 2.9m x 2.7m, area one leads to area 2 which is higher.

Hello, I am a Tesla w@nker and currently get by with just using a granny charger, we don’t have a dedicated wall charger and use a 3 pin socket to charge as this gives us enough overnight for our daily usage, think it only charges at about 8amps but it works. However we have recently moved to an...
