Backyard deck using Ekodeck

As part of the backyard Reno, we decided to build a deck as an entertaining area. We decided to use the existing concrete section and extend over part of the lawn area.

Step 1

Build frame.

We built the frame using H3 timber at 450mm centres propping it up with some bricks.

Step 2

Joist tape

We then added some joist tape to protect all the the timber.

Step 3

Leveling deck

Using plastic pedestal, we leveled the deck and ensured it was flat. We also applied more weed mat over the non concrete area to avoid any potential weed growth.

Step 4

Board install

We then started installing the decking boards starting with the edges and then laying the boards using the ekodeck quick fix system.

Sensational work @diy_hausdesigns! You've really nailed it with that one!

I love the finish you've achieved and the effective use of pedestal feet over both concrete and soil.

Well done and many thanks for sharing.
