Project Story
Timber Pontoon Decking, Astor Drive For Grappenhall & Thelwall Parish Council

The Challenge
We were incredibly proud to be selected by Grappenhall & Thelwall Parish Council to design and install a high durability timber pontoon and wildlife viewing platform at Astor Drive Duck Pond. As a public space the requirements are far stricter than a domestic deck: it needed to be structurally superior, slip-resistant, and built to withstand constant contact with a water-side environment.
The DecKing Solution
-
Safety First: We anti-slip timber boards to ensure the walkway remains safe for families and elderly residents, even in the dampest of Cheshire winters.
-
Structural Integrity: The pontoon was engineered with heavy-duty sub-frames, ensuring a perfectly level and stable platform over the water’s edge.
-
Wildlife Friendly: The design was carefully planned to complement the natural surroundings of Astor Drive, providing a beautiful vantage point for the community without disturbing the local ducks.

The Result
A community asset for Grappenhall. This project is a testament to the quality and reliability of DecKing Warrington. Being trusted by the local Parish Council proves that our materials and installations meet the highest possible safety standards. Residents of Grappenhall and Thewall now have a beautiful, secure spot to enjoy their local environment for a decade or more.
