The project and the challenge

This private home in Assumadas de Algoz, in the Algarve, has an outdoor relaxation area centred around the swimming pool. The area was previously finished with timber decking, which had gradually begun to show its limitations:

Timber deterioration

Over time, the decking lost its stability, with warping, cracking and general wear affecting the overall appearance of the outdoor space.

Maintenance and performance

The old deck required constant upkeep to maintain its appearance, and its deterioration eventually began to detract from the outdoor area as a whole.

The solution

The area was renovated with CDECK® composite decking, chosen for its low maintenance, slip-resistant surface suitable for poolside use and wood-effect finish.

The result

A total of 54 m² of CDECK® composite decking was installed around the swimming pool, creating a more comfortable, consistent outdoor space suited to the intense heat of the Algarve.

« I would like to express how pleased I am with the IHT products we chose and with the decking installation service: high-quality products, delivery times that were fully respected, very professional work completed on schedule, and an excellent final result. I would especially like to thank you for your availability and for such a pleasant collaboration. »
