Sustainable Brimstone Ash Decking to Complement a Modern Garden

This landscaping project of our design for a large, family back garden in the Redland area of Bristol is drawing to a close. Father and son team, Jerry and Sam have been working on adding the brimstone ash deck boards to the timber frame, that they constructed earlier on.

The warm tones of brimstone ash is such a great choice for a new decking area in your garden. As a product that is native and locally produced, you can’t get much better than this hardy, durable wood. The boys constructed the timber frame of the main decking area first, then the timber raised bed, and then the steps next to the raised bed. It’s been really interesting seeing this framework taking shape.

Walking out of the back doors, straight onto the new decking is going to be such a treat for the family who live here. The old decking had seen better days, and wasn’t very easy to navigate through or to relax on.

There is always lots of problem-solving to do whilst landscaping, but that’s the satisfying part of the job; working through challenges with fantastic outcomes. If you’d like to see how this garden looked at the start of this project, click here.

This garden just requires the lawn to be laid, and plants added to the raised beds and newly created borders. Check back in with us next week to see photos of this finished garden design.
