our why
The reason why we refurbish and reskin so many old decks with sustainable products is because most people
don’t have the time and energy a timber deck requires to keep it looking like new.
Mark & Jess Behnecke
99% of all our work is deck refurbishment. In most cases composite decking sub-floors are built different to that of a traditional timber deck. For this reason, we replace the old joists with new treated pine joists and reduce the joist centres from 450mm down to 400mm. This is common practice when using good quality composite materials, as most manufactures require joists centres to be reduced. We go 1 step further and reduce our joist centres down to 380mm. This not only ensures we are exceeding what is required, it reduces our composite board wastage.
By using high quality sustainable composite boards, we are taking away recycled products that would have previously gone into landfill.
