We recently had the opportunity to follow an ambitious renovation project in the Paris region, showcasing the expertise of PMC installer Valentin and Fiberdeck®, manufacturer of quality composite wood decking. Mr. Dominique M., the owner, shares his experience of this large-scale project, which completely transformed his outdoor space.
Top-of-the-range materials: the EXOTICS range from Fiberdeck®.
For this project, Mr Dominique M. and his wife chose deck boards from Fiberdeck®'s Exotics range. These co-extruded boards are solid, sturdy and uniquely designed to perfectly imitate the natural shades of Ipé wood. With three color choices – Red, Yellow, and Brown – each plank is two-tone, creating a unique patchwork by harmonizing color variations in a single installation.
Technical features that make all the difference
EXOTICS boards offer several unique advantages:
– A co-extruded protective layer for optimum resistance to weathering and fading.
– A smooth, matte surface appearance that resembles natural wood.
– Reversible two-tone profile for a personalized look.
– Fast, easy fastening thanks to Cobra Hybrid 8-18 stainless steel clips, which facilitate installation and removal without damaging the structure.
– A sustainable material, composed of 40% recycled polyethylene and 60% FSC®-certified wood fiber, guaranteeing responsible management of forest resources.
These solid slats feature a high density of 1170 kg/m³, guaranteeing remarkable strength, ideal for outdoor spaces subject to a variety of conditions. They are also backed by a 20-year warranty, covering all manufacturing defects and resistance to staining and fading.
Installation by a trusted professional
The project was entrusted to Valentin from PMC, an installer in whom the family had already placed their trust for previous projects. The complex job, which involved dismantling and reassembling a pool enclosure with a retractable roof, was scheduled to take around a month.
High expectations for a spectacular result
It's a challenge that installer Valentin is rising to with expertise, to make this customer's dream come true.
Conclusion:
This decking project is a perfect example of how exceptional materials like Fiberdeck's Exotics range, combined with the expertise of a skilled installer like Valentin from PMC, can transform a simple exterior into a unique and sustainable living space. EXOTICS planks, with their Ipe wood-inspired design and unrivalled strength, bring a touch of authenticity and refinement to every project.
