Hi, I have a concrete slab in my garden which I’d like to put a deck on.
I’m thinking about building a composite subframe, which I’ll drill into the concrete, and then laying timber decking on top.
My thinking is that a composite subframe won’t rot down if water sits on the concrete, but I prefer timber decking for aesthetics and reducing plastic in the garden.
Has anyone built a deck like this?
Can I just screw the timber decking boards directly into the composite joists?
Any foreseeable issues?
Any tips?
Thanks
