The first stage to creating a deck is to create a plan for your new decking area. With regards to this one of the best tips we can give you is firstly to work out the rough size of the area you wish to deck and then to see what length of decking boards are available. This is because ideally you need to build your deck so that it has the least number of joints in the decking surface. For example if you plan a decking area 3.60 metres long and the only available decking boards are 3.40 metres long then you are going to have to create a lot of joints and however good you are at creating these joints they will distort over a period of time
The next key to creating a successful decking project is to work out the frame and how its going to be supported. Most of your time will be spend creating or building the frame so its important to consider it carefully because a poorly constructed frame will not last any period of time and in most cases you will end up with a bouncy decking.
