- If you’ve not got an overhang or it’s a fixed deck, fit starter clips along the outside edge of the frame and secure with screws provided with the composite decking. If you are working with an overhang, put the first board into position not exceeding 25mm. If you’re adding a fascia, put an off-cut of board under the overhang so you know it’ll be flush with the fascia.
- Pre-drill all fixing points, measuring in 30mm from the edge of the board. Secure the board to the joist below with composite decking screws.
- Slide a hidden fastener clip in so it sits within the groove of the deck board. It needs to be in the centre of the joist to keep the boards secure and ensure an expansion gap of 6mm. Tighten the clips until just tight, and repeat so there’s a clip at every joist.
- Add the next board, ensuring that the fastener clips sit within the groove – make sure you don’t force it. Repeat step 3.
- Continue steps 3 and 4 until you’re at the final board, which you should secure in the same way as you did the first.
Barmouth
Barmouth is a community and also community in the area of Gwynedd, north-western Wales, resting on the estuary of the River Mawddach and Cardigan Bay. Found in the Historic county of Merionethshire, the Welsh kind of the name is derived from "Aber" (tidewater) and also the river's name, "Mawddach". The English kind of the name is a corruption of the earlier Welsh kind 'Abermawdd'. The community is served by Barmouth train station. The community grew around the shipbuilding sector, and more recently as a seaside resort. Noteworthy structures consist of the medieval Ty Gwyn tower house, the 19th century Ty Crwn roundhouse prison as well as St John's Church. William Wordsworth, a visitor to Barmouth in the 19th century, defined it thus: "With a great sea view in front, the hills behind, the remarkable estuary running 8 miles [13 km] inland, as well as Cadair Idris within compass of a day's stroll, Barmouth can always hold its very own versus any kind of opponent." Dinas Oleu (Citadel of Light), which is located east of the community on the adjacent hillside, was the first system of land to be contributed to the National Depend on.
