    Default Outdoor concrete seating....Advice please?!

    Hello there,

    Considering building some concrete seating on the perimeter of a proposed pergola......I've looked around on the web, and can't find any DIY instructions. Could anyone suggest websites that might help?

    Cheers

    Concrete would be cold, hard and heavy.

    You say "proposed" pergola. Is it going to be deck or a slab/paving. What about timber boxes with lids you could store cushions in. The timber cladding for the boxes could be the same as the timber deck (if it were a deck). And timber seats would be alot lighter and easier to move around, either to re-arrange seating or even just to sweep-up.
    Too many projects, so little time, even less money!
