Treehouse

We love building decks, but this job had us bounding out of bed in the morning. Constructed between two beech trees, a large platform supported a two storey house, complete with glazing, covered balcony, and loft. To say nothing of the fitted steps and the scramble net.   This is far too good for the kids, which is a pity because we can’t keep them off it. ...

Swimming Pool

Decks are often added to newly purchased properties. This was built over an existing patio, raising the level to that of the door threshold, for comfortable movement in and out of the house. A swimming pool needed fencing off to create a safe environment for two young children, being in the same style as the deck railings made for a seamless transition. Part of the balustrade railing was in toughened glass paneling, for an even classier finish.   ‘I can’t believe how much bigger the deck area is than that horrible patio and steps.’ Mr...

Deck and studio

As featured in the April 2010 edition of Idealhome What started as a simple deck enquiry just grew and grew, but why take our word for it when the customer is so much more eloquent?   Jack Sutcliffe and I stood in the rain and talked decking, and here I am now with a beautifully constructed deck, solid and neatly framed round the edges. We talked further, and a bench appeared to stand in front of my greenhouse, in exactly the style I wanted – although the sloping back, on Jack’s insistence, was definitely an improvement on the bench I had seen. A few...

Pergola deck

Just because its a small area, doesn’t mean a deck can’t be packed with features. A corner of a suburban garden needed a special something, Our speciality, quarter cartwheel pergola, with built in seating, balustrade railing, and deck boarding laid at a 45 degrees angle.   We’ve always been pleased with the work Timberscapes has done for us. Mr Hawkhead ...
