Decking Boards - which way up???

vansboy

Hi All!

Not been on here much recently, still loads to dom but getting the raised deck laid this week www.theupsidedownhouse.9f.com wondered which surface YOU prefer to walk on, with the 'reversable' deck bords?

Also does the flat surface not become more slippery, or the grooved finish make the party girls fall off their high heels!!??

Thanks in advance!

Grooved side up for me - as you say, the flat side can get very slippery in the unlikely event of rain... (and ban the stilletoes - will look like advanced wordworm after a few gatherings)

Some things are worth the dimpled look:kisses2:

Grooved side for me too! I used this stuff on ours and I think it is great

we have the grooved side up on ours. Watch though as even that can get slippy... I should know lol, or my knee should (owe!)

I always fit grooved side up, but was surprised when tommy Walsh said to fit otherway up a few years back.
