Wooden Decking in Llantwit Major

Wooden decking is an increasingly prevalent option for creating outdoor seating areas in gardens. Because of the natural beauty of wood, they can be very fashionable areas which you can use year round by installing external heating and illumination. Wooden decking is typically installed in locations in front of patio or French doors where they can create a smooth transition between inside and outside spaces. Wooden decking can come in any size or shape to fit any area. Curved designs or large areas linked by pathways can produce a stunning effect. Wooden decking is fairly quick to install and causes little disruption, especially when compared to alternatives like patio or paving. It can even be installed over the top of an existing patio. It is necessary however to make certain that your wooden decking is structurally sound and able to take the weight of any furniture or plants that you want to use on the decking. There is a collection of types of wood that can be used in wooden decking. Commonly decking is made of hardwood, but there are softwoods available that fulfil the durability specifications. As hardwood decking will require maintenance, which commonly involves yearly cleaning and staining for weather proofing, composite woods have become more popular for use in wooden decking because they are stronger and require much less maintenance.

Llantwit Major

Llantwit Major is a modest coastal town and community in the Vale of Glamorgan, Wales, resting on the Bristol Channel shoreline. It is among four towns in the Vale of Glamorgan and the 3rd greatest by population (13,366 (2001) after Barry and Penarth. The town's name in Welsh, Llanilltud Fawr, originated from the name of Saint Illtud, who arrived at the region from Brittany, Gaul. He founded the monastery of Illtud and the college connected to it, Cor Tewdws, which would grow into among the most prestigious Christian colleges of the times. At peak it brought in over 2000 students, including princes and numerous prominent clergymen, some now revered as saints. The modern town of Llantwit established rather quickly in the 20th century to accommodate Royal Air Force employees from the base developed at nearby St Athan, however it preserves its medieval cobbled streets and buildings of the 15th and 16th centuries. Collugh Beach is a popular surfing venue and has the remnants of an Iron Age fort and a few of the finest examples of Jurassic-period fossils in Wales. The pebble beach and its remarkable clifftops are part of a 14 miles (23 km)-long coastline safeguarded under the Glamorgan Heritage Coast, which stretches from Gileston in the east to Newton Point beyond Southerndown in the west. Llantwit Major is mostly reliant on local retail and incomes from additional afield. Most of the inhabitants commute to work elsewhere, primarily Cardiff or Bridgend. Through the summer months tourism is necessary to the town which has "The Precinct", Rainbow Plaza and multiple pubs and eateries. Of note are the Old Swan Inn, Old White Hart Inn, The Tudor Tavern, and the 17th century West House Country Hotel Heritage Restaurant. For all of your home makeovers, be sure to identify credible professionals in Llantwit Major to make certain of quality.

FAQs

What should I do if my deck or terrace is slippery?

Usually, slipperiness is caused by algae or dirt on top of the deck or terrace. A full cleaning treatment should restore the natural grip of the wood or stone. If slipperiness is a persistent problem, consider installing grip mats in high traffic areas of the deck.

How much maintenance will a wooden deck need?

Properly installed wooden decking will not need a lot of maintenance. Most manufacturers recommend regularly brushing leaves and dirt off the deck, and a yearly cleaning and staining procedure. This will keep the wood in the best condition. Fluids and treatments are readily available from all DIY shops and stores.

Can I fit a hot tub on my terrace or decking?

Yes, although you should make sure that the terrace or decking is able to support the weight of a hot tub. Usually, you will need to have a structural survey carried out on the area. Seek the advise of a hot tub retailer or installer about the logistics of installing one at your property.

How to make steps for a deck?
Unless you built a ground-level deck, you’re going to need steps to go with it. Check Building Regulations to see if you need to install handrails as well. It’s good practice to:
  • Have a step tread width of 900mm – if you don’t want them that wide, they should be no less than 760mm
  • Add a central step riser to stairs wider than 900mm to prevent them buckling
  • Add a step depth (the vertical distance between each step) of between 150 and 180mm if building your own riser, so the steps are at a comfortable depth
Getting started To build your steps for the deck, you’ll need:
  • Step treads (the actual step themselves)
  • Step risers
  • Coach screws
  • Deck screws
  • Saw
  • Drill
Make the steps for your deck
  1. Make sure the ground where you want to put your steps is level and firm. If it’s not, consider laying concrete or paving slabs to provide a secure surface for your steps to sit so they don’t sink.
  2. Grab some joist off-cuts and cut them to the same width as your step treads. Attach them to the step risers at the top and bottom using countersunk coach screws.
  3. Place the steps against the sub-frame of the deck; if you’ve put slabs down for support, make sure the steps sit in the middle of them. The longest edge of the stair riser should be on the slabs, and the short edge against the deck. Drill pilot holes through the step and sub-frame joist, then screw the step to the sub-frame with more coach screws.
  4. After drilling pilot holes, screw the treads into the risers at each end with deck screws.
  5. If you don’t want gaps between each stair, you can add joist off-cuts or deck boards. Measure the height and depth of the gap, then screw the off-cut or board into the step riser with two screws at each end.
