    I think I have the name correct. It's the decking you'd see at poolsides etc. Does anyone have reccomendations where to buy this stuff. It's hard enough to get

    Depending on price yes I would. Any idea of a price per square meter?

    I posted recently in the gardening forum on this subject. Could be worth a look there. On phone so finding it hard to link to the thread but it should be page 1.

    Are the rails under the composite necessary? Or could stainless screws be used to screw it straight to timer joists below?

    Has anyone used the composite decking from Woodies? Just wondering what is the gap between the boards as just trying to gauge how many we'd need

    It’ll depend on the brackets. Mine was around 5-7mm gap

    Nice one, thanks. I've factored in that kinda gap.
