    Talking An Inspirational Deck

    Here is a deck that was being built on a house I did the floors on.

    The guy who built the decking is probably the finest chippie I've met, and I've met quite a few.

    This particular deck wraps right around the house and all up is some thirty squares in size.

    And what I amusing is, with all the debate that rages on regarding what to coat decks with the owner of this particular decking chose not to coat it at all. He just let it Grey off naturally, that way it always looks good, as your not distracted by the beauty of it all by looking at some sort of failing, flaking, discolouring coating, of one sort or the other.

    I think this bloke might just be on to something.

    That is an amazing deck, with an amazing amount of possible points for rot to start.
