Hi
We have a largeish garden (about 1/4 acre) and are hoping to put in a 32 x 16 foot deck rather than a patio but I am slightly confused about putting it in.
We have a concrete path around our house which is about three feet wide, do I put the deck adjacent to the house on top of the path and secured to the concrete walls of the house, or do I put the deck after the path and therefore have to dig out the depth of the supports for the deck so I have a level path and deck?
i've checked all my gardening diy books and none make any reference to this at all.
Putting the deck on the concrete will still leave it below the damp proof course if that's any help
thanks again for any replies.
