Hi all,
I'm thinking of putting in some decking in my garden come spring time ready for the summer. But am a little unsure about how to do this. As you walk out of the back door, I have a patio area and then a lawn.
Now if I put the decking down, it would go over the patio and partly on to the lawn - how would I go about doing this? i.e. I'll have the framework below the decking on a hard patio floor and on soft grass - this can't be right can it?
Also, the framework which sits below the decking would rot sitting on a patio and grass with rain or even ground moisture wouldn't it? how should this be kept dry?
As a quick guide, what are the steps in laying decking?
Many thanks.
