How To Lay Composite Decking Joists

[@robgormley1317]

It's all in the preparation just like every job isn't it and pays off when done right, you have made a great job of that subbase and carting it through the customer's house couldn't have been easy, we did 36 Square meters last October for a customer and that composite deck board's weight a ton 😩 looking forward to tomorrow's progress and hope your little one was ok after the hospital visit. Regards Rob.

Is there any reason why you can't use these joists with timber decking?

[@TheHomeRenovationExperts]

None whatsoever!! In fact after using the composite joists I’d rather use pressure treated wood!! Lol

[@iwantthemoonback4198]

​@TheHomeRenovationExperts why would you prefer wood for the substructure? Cost? Ease? How's the decking after a year? Any warping?

[@TheHomeRenovationExperts]

@@iwantthemoonback4198 no warping but as for using the stuff, wood is a lot easier and a lot more cost effective. I’d be tempted to use plastics posts in post Crete for the verticals in the ground and then 4 x 2 for the floating sub structure. It’ll never rot as none of it is in contact with the floor but tonnes easier!! 😆👊

You didnt use any posts, can the subframe just sit on the ground? I don't have much clearance like you

这些铝合金材料的框架，怎么好像在bunning找不到？需要到哪里去买？

[@TheHomeRenovationExperts]

你在哪里？如果在英国，那么 Oribtal Fastener 网站就是我找到他们的地方。

That guttering pipe going right across would drive me crazy. Shame it was done that way

[@TheHomeRenovationExperts]

Yeah, it was an intriguing way it was run, I’d have changed it but client was happy with it 🤷

How is it holding up a year later?
