  • Wooden Sun Decks Durban – Westville

    Wooden Sun Decks Durban – Westville

    This wooden sun deck we built in Westville Durban was designed to try to maximise outdoor space. The house we built it at had very little outdoor space as it was situated on a steep plot. You can see from the pics that before we built the wooden sun deck, the garden had only a…

  • Wooden Post and Rail Fencing Durban

    Wooden Post and Rail Fencing Durban

    A wooden post and rail fence is an attractive boundary to your property. Although they have large gaps between the rails and posts they can be made secure by adding weldmesh as we did in this one in Summerveld. Wooden Post and Rail fences are traditionally associated with horse farms as in their normal state…

  • Wooden Sun Deck Repairs – Durban

    Wooden Sun Deck Repairs – Durban

    Besides our main activity of sundeck building in Durban, we also maintain and repair sundecks. Wooden sun deck repairs need to be performed from time to time and the sooner they are attended to the better. If a wooden deck is constructed correctly these repairs can be kept to a minimum, but from time to,…

  • CCA Treated Substructures in Wooden Sundecks – Durban

    CCA Treated Substructures in Wooden Sundecks – Durban

    As I’ve mentioned in previous articles we use a H3 CCA treated pine substructure which the suppliers offer a 50 year guarantee on. In order to activate that guarantee we need to adhere to best practices and there are a few things that we need to do, and document by way of pics.  Although all…

  • Timber Decks Durban – Umhlanga

    Timber Decks Durban – Umhlanga

    This existing timber deck in Umhlanga Durban had reached a point of no return and our recommendation to the client was that we remove it and replace it. It’s never a good thing to hear that you must throw it away and buy a new one because it can’t be fixed, but often wooden decks…

  • Wooden Sundecks – Durban North

    Wooden Sundecks – Durban North

    We completed these wooden sundeck jobs in Durban North last year during our busy decking season. There were two decks we built. They were both quite simple in that they were low-level wooden sundecks coming off the granny flat, which had just been refurbished measuring 5m x 2.2m. The first one was a relatively small…

  • Wooden Parquet Floor Sanding and Sealing

    Wooden Parquet Floor Sanding and Sealing

    We were called to quote on sanding and sealing the wooden Swiss parquet floors in an old house in Hillcrest. From the pics alongside you can see that these rooms are the typical large ones found in older houses. The Swiss parquet floors have probably been there well on 40 years or probably even since…

  • Solid Wood Floors Durban

    This client had existing saligna wooden floors which were suspended, or sprung, and she wanted to extend the floor to the other half of the room which was concrete with a linoleum covering. The total area was about 12 square metres. A small job in size but we needed to be careful to get it…

  • Wooden Screens, Pergolas, Decks and Gates Durban

    Wooden Screens, Pergolas, Decks and Gates Durban

    We were asked to quote on wooden screens, wooden pergolas, wooden decks and wooden gates on a new build in Prestondale, an area north of Umhlanga, at a development called Izinga Ridge. We originally quoted in about June 2013 and the work was awarded to us for s start date of about 1 November 2013.…

  • Wooden Decks Durban – Bluff

    Wooden Decks Durban – Bluff

    This wooden deck in Durban was the second phase of a job we started at the beginning of the year. We were originally asked to build a deck off the main bedroom. First we had to remove the aluminium window and install an aluminium sliding door. I always suggest that clients do this first so…
