Raised terraces – what you need to know

Thinking about building a terrace next to your home, but worried that uneven ground could put a stop to your plans? Not necessarily! Our projects include many practical terraces built on uneven ground or on a slope. All you need to do is trust specialists who will prepare the site properly and carry out every stage of the work to a professional standard.

A raised terrace is built on a concrete slab or suitably prepared ground. The structure is raised on beams, joists or supports. This makes it possible to build a terrace on a slope or on ground with smaller irregularities. What is more, if the entire structure is planned well, you may also be able to make use of the space created beneath the terrace.

The terrace can be bordered by a slope planted with decorative greenery, or it can also serve as storage for garden tools or firewood.

A terrace on a slope – why choose one?

Whether it is built on flat ground or on a slope, a terrace is always a practical solution for your home. Building a terrace on a slope is a simple way to turn a disadvantage and a drawback of your plot into an asset. By building this kind of structure on an unused slope, you create extra space for the whole family to enjoy.

A raised terrace provides an attractive finishing touch to the entire property, giving it a modern feel while also making it more welcoming. By choosing to build a terrace, you gain extra space to relax after a long day, meet up with loved ones, enjoy family meals or play with the children.

Raised composite terrace

The terraces on slopes that we build at Gardpol are attractive and practical structures. We use only the highest-quality materials in our projects, such as composite decking boards. They are key to the success of our work and to achieving a thoroughly satisfying result for every project.

Composite is a modern material made up of wood flour and a synthetic blend of materials such as:

●     PVC,

●     PP,

●     HDPE.

This composition is exceptionally durable, strong and long-lasting. Composite terraces not only look attractive in the garden and beside the house, but are also remarkably sturdy. They serve all household members impeccably for many years, without losing any of their aesthetic appeal or quality.

Composite decking boards are resistant to intensive, prolonged use, abrasion and mechanical damage. They cope well with changing weather conditions, including rain, snow, high temperatures and frost. What is more, they do not require any special care or maintenance.

An elevated terrace made from composite decking boards will not only be durable, but also very safe. Its surface has no protruding or hazardous elements. What is more, its special finish makes it non-slip. This means that all household members and their guests, from the youngest to the oldest, can enjoy the terrace comfortably and with confidence.
