The tips that will help you in the process!
Use Pressure Treated Timber
Obviously, timber is wood; so it will rot after a certain time period. With the help of advanced technology, the timber has been processed to make it last long. This is called the pressure treated timber. The benefit of using this timber is that it is extremely flexible in temperature and pressure conditions. Also, it can tolerate much heavy weight just as compared to normal timber Decking.
Measure It Properly
It is one of the biggest mistakes that might shed off whole structure later on. Most of the people often believe what is printed on the label or what is advertised. However, the measurement of the timber bars varies drastically. For instance, the timber bar of 10 feet might be 10 feet 2 inches long,practically.

If you are doing the decking job on your own, it would be a great help to invite your friends and family members to finish the job on time. Practically, the decking job will take lots of time mainly during the time of nailing and not fitting due to a large number of bolts are to be fitted in the small looking decks.
Final Protection for Deck
Finally, do not forget to paint the deck using Water Repellant Preservative (WRP). This paint helps to stain all the water away from the timber and protect the timber Decking from getting rot for a very long time period.
