dcool 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2009 Hi Kartell, Congras on your new home and love your amazing decor. I like to check if your decking contractor mention that the varnishing for the decking may fade over a period of time ? And do your decking have a clear coat or lacquer? Bc my decked varnish faded after less than a year and was wondering if its normal. My contractor tell me its normal for the fading. The fading shows patches of the bare wood on the surface. Its not really unsightly but i just wan to check if it normal for something like to happen. Mine was not done my Liang Hoe Huat but i like to know if they provided any warranty on workmanship. Some of my decking strips seem to have "cupping" effect. Its not really serious or obvious but you can slightly feel it when you walk over it on bare foot. I actually keen on using your contractor to resand my decking to level the cupping effect and repaint the whole decking again. But like to check on the workmanship for quality. Btw are you able to tell me the size of your decking and price they charge for it ? Mine decking is 4.5m X 5m, and was quoted around 4k. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hi Kartell, did you try to use plastic timber for more durable look? I love your polycarbonate trellis, did you get approval from MCST before installing?
