- 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.
Cairndow
Cairndow is a coastal community, on the Cowal peninsula in Argyll as well as Bute, Scottish Highlands. The town exists in between the A83 roadway as well as the head of Loch Fyne. Cairndow's school closed in 1988 after the roll fell to simply 3 students. Now children in the location are sent to the primary school in Strachur as well as the senior high school in Dunoon. Medical centers for the community are supplied by the GP in Strachur. Kilmorich Church at Cairndow was integrated in 1818 as well as is a group A noted building. After coming from as an oyster ranch in the loch, Loch Fyne Oysters opened its Loch Fyne Oyster Bar in 1988 at Clachan, across the head of the loch from Cairndow. The firm has broadened right into a restaurant chain, and the Oyster Bar remains to be a tourist destination at Clachan, Cairndow.
