Our current patio is all crumbling and falling away from the house. The garden slopes away from the house. There is about 4 step from the patio door down to the patio. Was picking the brains of my friendly archietect. His suggestion was to raise the patio using steel posts & subframe. Then use composite decking to cover it all up. This is like Milboard, Trex etc. It is a much better idea than trying to rise the patio with a retaining wall and filling it.
Never considered decking before because the Mrs does not want wood. Therefore, havent really looked at composite decking. Any experiences in composites?
(outside chance) anyone gone down the route of steel subframes instead of wooden posts?
