The project and the challenge

A detached house in Assumadas de Algoz, in the Algarve, with an outdoor leisure area arranged around the pool. The area was previously covered with timber decking, a solution that had begun to show some limitations:

Timber deterioration

Over time, the decking lost its stability, showing warping, cracks and widespread wear that affected the uniformity of the outdoor space.

Maintenance and performance

The existing solution needed constant maintenance to keep its appearance, but its state of deterioration ended up detracting from the outdoor space.

The solution

The choice fell on CDECK® composite decking, renewing the space with a low-maintenance solution, with a non-slip surface suited to pool areas and a finish that recreates the look of wood.

The result

The result is 54 m² of CDECK® composite decking around the pool, creating an outdoor space that is more comfortable, uniform and suited to the Algarve heat.
