Why should you have it?
How to choose the right raised terrace for you

Incomparably quick and simple execution, ease of repair, relatively lower price or the possibility of mounting on a variety of surfaces are one of the most important advantages of raised terraces.

The ventilated terrace is an interesting alternative to traditional solutions for the external floor house cladding.

Check if it's for you!

Below I will briefly illustrate what a raised patio is.

A ventilated, raised patio is usually made of frost-resistant ceramic, concrete or stone tiles. These tiles must be suitable for laying on patio support pads or adjustable pedestals - that is, the manufacturer allows these panels to be supported by points through the supportpads.

Wondering what's on the balcony? Or maybe you have a large outdoor house patio and you spend your sleepless nights asking "what's on the terrace?"
The best option is a raised floor.

Such a terrace can also be made of both wooden and composite boards. Then, joists are also needed to fix the boards. And he is directly placed on the adjustable plastic pedestals.

The terrace adjustable pedestals comes in many deck variants.

You choose the one that suits your investment.

If your raised terrace requires a slight lifting and leveling, you can use low fixed or adjustable pedestals. However, if you want to raise the terrace by many centimeters, use high adjustable pedestals for raised terraces.

Such plastic adjustable pedestals will help us in many aspects. They both level the floor and raise the level to the required height.

Below are a few, in our opinion, the most important points that will help you decide whether such a system raised terrace will also work for you.

  • Very simple, incomparably fast and stable installation
  • No wet work, mortar, adhesive, jointing work etc.
  • High resistance to atmospheric conditions - due to the lack of the need for layers that are susceptible to it, i.e. the adhesive does not soak, the joint does not crumble, etc.
  • There is no water or snow on the raised floor mounted in this way - everything flows into the isolated layers below or soil
  • Under the cladding, you can run various installations - electrical, water, light, etc. - this allows you to make a cozy arrangement of the terrace or balcony
  • Various mechanisms can be installed under the floor, e.g. swimming pool pumps, garden spraying, sound system, etc.
  • Unlimited choice of cladding - many types of wooden or composite boards, ceramic, stone, concrete tiles - only imagination limits us
  • and most importantly, the substructure, i.e. the terrace adjustable pedestals, remains undamaged - it can be used repeatedly. If the board is damaged, you can quickly remove it and arrange a new one. We already have the construction ready. You can even arrange the terrace from boards. Nothing stops us.

The raised terrace is very simple to make.

However, despite your simplicity, you must prepare yourself and do it properly.

Both a terrace made of ceramic tiles as well as wooden boards or composite boards for its easy and difficult assembly elements.

A raised terrace from ceramic tiles is probably the easiest to do after all.

 

If you can choose terrace tiles so that their multiple is the size of the terrace, your terrace can be built in a few hours.

All you have to do is select the right height of the terrace adjustable pedestals , be it adjustable or fixed pedestals, and place the panels on them in accordance with the instructions we will tell you in the next article, step by step, how to make a terrace.

When making a terrace from wooden boards, the steps are similar to installing a terrace from composite boards.

In both cases, we must set joists, be it wooden or composite, on spaced terrace support pads or adjustable pedestals. It depends on the type of top boards.

But also from the accepted assembly system.

Composite boards, due to their composition, are adapted to changing weather conditions. They are not as sensitive to rain and sun as natural boards. The manufacturer usually provides all mounting elements fitted to his board.

Most often these are clips mounted in the gap between two adjacent boards. This solution allows you to mount the board without damaging it.

The screws are invisible and the board undamaged.

A raised terrace in a wooden version is more complicated.

Here we have a wide selection of assembly systems. There are many solutions for fixing the board.

We recommend those that insulate the board from joists. This means that the board does not rot. Each element has access to air.

It is also worth using such a system so as not to damage the board from above. This means that no screws will be visible. Our eyes will see only a beautiful natural board.

Each of these terraces has something in itself.

You just have to choose the best one for each of us.

For people who love a raw pattern, cold colors or value maintenance-free, the terrace of ceramic tiles or any other will be best. This solution will provide them with a beautiful space and at the same time easy to maintain.
