We then added some joist tape to protect all the the timber.

Using plastic pedestal, we leveled the deck and ensured it was flat. We also applied more weed mat over the non concrete area to avoid any potential weed growth.

Re: Backyard deck
Sensational work @diy_hausdesigns! You've really nailed it with that one!
I love the finish you've achieved and the effective use of pedestal feet over both concrete and soil.
Well done and many thanks for sharing.
