Brief: We were asked to remove an old deck that was looking rather dated and replace it with a larger deck with handrails that didn’t look too imposing. We came up with a couple of designs and then settled on the one you see. We were quite lucky in that the previous deck installation had been somewhat ‘over engineered’ and we had concrete pads all over the area to site our up stands upon. This is probably one of the most simple yet elegant decks we have installed and its simplicity goes towards the speed that it was installed.

As TV chiefs love to say “just good quality ingredients well presented”.  Simple and stylish!
