    British Standards

    NHBC BS 8579 Design of balconies and terraces with edge drainage

    The National House Building Council, (NHBC) is the leading provider of warranties for new build housing in the UK. Each year, the NHBC releases an updated version of its technical standards after working with stakeholders from across the construction industry. As apartment developments with outdoor balcony spaces continue to rise in popularity, it is important to be familiar with the BS 8579 standard which sets a benchmark for quality of the design of balconies and terraces, and with the latest technical guidance from the NHBC.

    Latest standards state that drainage is required on balconies where areas are 6m2 or over, and that consideration should also be given to providing drainage to areas that are less than 6m2, when considering factors such as exposure, where the water will end up, and potential adverse effects on the building or surrounding area.

    FAQ

    Composite decking is a safe flooring surface designed to mimic the look of traditional wood decking but offering enhanced durability and minimal maintenance. Dura Composites offers a range of composite decking including porcelain, aluminium and composite timber.

    While the upfront cost of composite decking is typically higher than wood, it will be more cost-effective in the long run due to lower maintenance expenses and a longer lifespan. This is particularly relevant for decking in public spaces or high traffic areas.

    Absolutely, but not all composite decking is equal. Asking your decking supplier for test results is an important step in ensuring the quality, safety, and performance of the decking materials you are considering. We offer porcelain decking planks, aluminium decking planks and composite timber deck tiles which have been subjected to UV, anti-slip and fire performance testing, so you can make an informed decision as to which suits your project best.

    We offer a warranty on all our decking products for your peace of mind. We also offer installation guidance so you can fully understanding how to fit your decking as well as considering how the materials perform under various conditions, such as exposure to sunlight, moisture, and temperature fluctuations.
