Something I learned last week, but forgot about till I saw some decking on a house. When laying decking, do you put the grooved side up, or down?
Believe it or not, all of these are wrong. The grooves on decking are not decorative, nor to improve grip, but to maximise the surface area to improve the drying, and where does decking remain wettest? On the underside!
So, the grooved side should be on the underside and the smooth side uppermost.
Not a lot of people know that, as Michael Caine never said.
