Re. Decking advice.



Thank you one and all for allowing me to use this Newsgroup.
However we seemed to have got away from the issue.
I was seeking advice on Hardwood v. Redwood not Decking v. alternative.

Would you believe I have just taken procession of a house which has two
wooden sheds -(shudder everyone) - at the bottom of the garden.
The 6 x 8 area between them is soil, quite muddy right now . What to do ?

Lay a clinker, gravel or stone path between them and use the remainder as a
bed for gardening in?

At the top of the garden we have a large paving patio which is very sad -
covered in algae and uneven. When wet looks sad, when dry looks sad.
Only slippery when wet would you believe.

The algae are not difficult to remove and it ought not to be impossible to
relay the paving stones. You will end up with something more permanent and
more fitting for a garden than an alfresco dance floor.
