MAINTENANCE
Project: Domestic garden, Perth, Australia
Client: Dura Composites Australasia
Product: Dura Deck Type 146 Teak
The client had tried two differentvarieties of natural timber for hisbackyard deck, around a pool, close tothe beach. The salty air had destroyedboth timbers within months, causingwarping, fading and splitting. DuraComposites Australasia supplied DuraDeck Type 146 in teak, solving themaintenance issues for the clientinstantly. The client was so impressedhe extended the deck to other areas ofthe backyard. Salt water and air poseno problem for Dura Composites’timber composite and the deck stilllooks as good as it did the day it wasinstalled.
