Decking

The decking timbers are now laid across the joists and fixed in place.

Path

The path is outlined with blocks and concreted to support the edge. The middle is then filled with sand and the blocks laid on top in the required pattern. A vibrating plate is then used to level the blocks and the joints filled with dry sand to produce a sturdy and lasting finish.

Winter Jobs complete

Topsoil is now brought to the level of the path and this completes the jobs for Winter.

In Spring the final planting will be done, in the borders, around the decking and of course around and in the pond. It will also be the ideal time to lay the turf.
