Deck on steep slope of garden - Caterham Nr Croydon Surrey.

Deck, informal steps and safety fence - on a very steep garden!

Safety for children was one of the main considerations for this garden on a steep slope, together with retaining the informal nature of the garden and surrounds.

A deck at the top of the steep garden allows for superb views over the valley, whilst being secluded enough not to have 'privacy' problems. The old paved steps were replaced with informal deckboard - faced steps - to be in-filled with wood chippings.

Before and after

Before and After

Michael gets stuck into the safety fencing on a slope that was steep and slippery. After the fence, the steps to the top were completed - giving relatively easy access to the deck at the top of the garden - well over house roof height!
