Tennentslager Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Fitted 25m of decking for sister but she reckons rain is pooling on the top. It's level to within 2/3mm. Options? Drill drain holes Lift it and *somehow* refit with a slope. It's 5.5*4.5m Live with it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steptoe Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 Mate of mine that does it always puts a slight slope on it as he reckons you never get flat wood anyway and there will always be a twist or dip somewhere. I only found that out when I was round his 'helping' him do his own, and I 'helpfully' pointed out to him that it wasn't level , I don't know how you could easily do that now though.

Oz07 Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 40:1 gradient in line with grooves. Go back and jack it up one end or firing strips Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Punter Posted March 14, 2017 Share Posted March 14, 2017 The boards will shrink across their width in a while, so the pooling will not be significant or long term. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
