Roof Terrace Refurb Boasts Contrasting Porcelain Tiles Surface 360’s stone-effect porcelain paving tiles have transformed another JD Wetherspoon’s roof terrace on Andover High Street. The 351m2 wrap-around outside space is situated at the top of The John Russell Fox pub which now boasts a brand new, two-tone floor which has created a new dining area for their customers. The aptly named pub nods to the former home of the Andover Advertiser, founded by John Russell Fox who produced the first ever edition at this address back in 1858. Steeped in history, the pub has now invested in modern touches that are in keeping with its historic roots, offering its customers more than ever before. “Since I last visited, they have opened a new roof garden. It’s lovely!” exclaims a Tripadvisor customer. The fully licensed outside area has utilised the Levato Mono Quartz Style paving tiles from the 20mm porcelain exterior range by Surface 360. The decision to use two contrasting colours creates a central focus on both the upper and lower deck of the roof terrace, by using light sand coloured tiles boarded by dark grey tiles colour, which continued onto the connecting steps. The Quartz Style paving tiles were installed on top of a self levelling, height adjustable pedestal support system to create a high load bearing raised floor. The pedestal system allowed Surface 360 to level out and efficiently install the 20mm floor tiles in record time. The raised floor also allows for uninterrupted drainage to run underneath, which is ideal for those not so sunny English days. Technology has enabled Surface 360 to produce unbelievable hyper-realistic stone-effect tiles from porcelain. So much so, that it’s possible to reproduce almost the exact appearance of natural stones and their surface textures. Based on natural Quartzite, the Quartz Style stone-effect porcelain offers subtle varying shades and distinctive stone marking with a textured surface. As well as providing a refreshed new look for the roof terrace, the textured stone-effect surface provides excellent slip-resistance for improved safety under foot for the pub’s pedestrian traffic. Also, porcelain is extremely durable, easy to install and high load bearing. It doesn’t warp, stain or rot when wet, making it easy to clean and maintain, and importantly resistant to mould, moss and verdigris. Surface 360, formally The Deck Tile Co, specialises in stone-effect porcelain tiles for both the interior and exterior of commercial buildings and residential homes. In particular, Quartz Style offers a complementary interior range to provide any building or home with coordinating flooring. Discover their hyper-realistic tile ranges online and request real tile samples of your favourite designs before making that important decision at www.surface360.co.uk. 23 February 2018

In Sachen Sonnen- und Wetterschutz fahren Sie mit der markilux pergola ganz groß auf. Das Markisensystem auf schlanken Säulen und mit seitlichen Führungsschienen, basierend auf der designprämierten Wintergartenmarkise markilux 8800, wirft mit bis zu 6 Meter Ausfall weiträumig Schatten. Zugleich sorgen die Säulen neben den Befestigungspunkten an der Fassade für hohe Stabilität und Windsicherheit bis Windstärke 6 (Windwiderstandsklasse 3). Musste man bisher die Säulen mit einem Betonfundament fixieren, gibt es nun auch die Möglichkeit, für einen flexiblen Einsatz, Beschwerungskästen zu verwenden. Für die notwendige Standsicherheit sind die Kästen mit mindestens 100 Kilogramm Kies zu befüllen. Das pergola System bietet damit nicht nur den Vorteil, dass man es durch die optimale Verteilung von Zugkräften auch an Hausfassaden mit geringerer Traglast befestigen kann. Ab jetzt lässt es sich zudem überall dort einsetzen, wo ein Betonfundament bauseitig nicht möglich ist. Damit ist man bei der Wahl der zu beschattenden Fläche sehr flexibel. Die serienmäßig motorbetriebene Markise bietet markilux in den Varianten pergola 110 und 210 an. Beide Varianten lassen sich am Fußende der Säulen für einen Höhenausgleich um gut zehn Zentimeter verstellen. Bei der pergola 210 kann man zudem, je nach Markisengröße, eine der beiden Säulen um bis zu 40 Zentimeter absenken. So kann Regenwasser auch dann gut ablaufen, wenn sich die Neigung der Markise bauseitig nicht auf mindestens 14 Grad einstellen lässt. Die markilux pergola lässt sich als gekoppelte Anlage auf bis zu 15 Meter Breite erweitern. Mit markilux Schattenplus, tracfix sowie einer Vielzahl an Beleuchtungsoptionen und Säulenvarianten haben Sie alle Möglichkeiten, Ihren Lieblingsplatz im Freien nach Belieben zu gestalten. Wie kräftig die Sonne scheint oder woher der Wind auch weht: Mit Ihrer markilux pergola haben Sie immer die Ruhe weg. Maße max. 500 x 600 cm max. 600 x 450 cm Weitere/größere Anlagengrößen können verfügbar sein. Bitte kontaktieren Sie Ihren nächsten Fachpartner für eine Beratung.

Mediterranean Back Terrace Ideas and Designs

There’s nothing quite like an outdoor space with a view and if you’re elevated up high then there’s more chance of getting that view. Even if you’re not blessed with a natural view from your home, an elevated space outdoors will at least give you the chance to survey the land in front of you; whether that’s a few square metres or whole acres! A terrace is one way of achieving this as it gives you the flat surface of a patio but elevated; either on a flat roof, as decking in your garden, or extending out from your house at ground level or higher. Whether a mediterranean terrace is your only outside space and you want it to function as a garden or you’ll be using it as a dining or seating area, there are all sorts of mediterranean design ideas, furniture, plants and accessory options to think about.

How do I decorate or design a mediterranean roof garden?

UK homeowners are resourceful when it comes to outside space and will make the most of anything they can get their hands on, so it’s no wonder that in urban areas and cities we look to the roof for a place to get some rays. A mediterranean roof terrace can work in just the same way as a decking area, but you just may need a few extra elements to make it more comfortable – a way of shading an area from the sun, perhaps a parasol or sun shade, a touch of green to break up the stark nature of a roof, and a drainage system that will stop rain water collecting in colder months. If you want to create a whole garden on your roof you’ll be a little more restricted than when on ground level. Plants may have to remain potted, but you can find companies that design and install green roofs – systems that allow plants to be planted into the roof surface. However, green roofs can be costly and tricky to install, so stick to pots and raised flower beds if you want to stay on the safe side. Loungers, deck chairs and rattan chairs are great pieces of roof garden furniture as they’re portable and can be moved around your rooftop garden easily; perfect for sun chasers. However, if you want to create a larger sense of space for your roof terrace design, think about built-in benches or seating around the sides or a corner of your roof garden.

What to consider when designing garden decking

A decked garden area may look simple once finished, but there are so many factors to consider when it comes to putting together decking ideas. You’ll need to think about the materials you want to use, the balustrades or railings you might choose, whether you will have a raised deck and decking steps, and whether you want decking lights.

Which decking material is best?

Composite decking is a popular choice for outdoor deck material because it offers a combination of practicality and style. The boards are made of wood and plastic fibres so that the classic wooden look is kept but the plastic fibres mean they will be much more durable and easier to maintain than traditional hardwood. If you can’t resist the natural look and feel of hardwood decking boards, then yellow balau, iroko and ipe decking are suitable outdoor boards that will give you the classic feel of a traditional wooden deck. Remember, with hardwood decking you will regularly need to treat the wood to keep it clean, waterproofed and to maintain the colour. As wood is usually more of an investment than composite or plastic decking, it’s a good idea to speak to decking specialists or timber merchants because they will be able to advise you on the best wood for your design and how best to treat it. You may find that different decking materials are better to suited to different types of terraces; whether that’s on a roof, in the garden or on a balcony. Whether you are designing a terrace, balcony or decked garden area from scratch, or just looking to decorate what you already have, take a look through the photos on Houzz to find terrace and balcony ideas and inspiration.
