Before / After

Three projects, three transformations.

Deck renovation, a new residential deck and a hospitality pool-deck project in a Mauritian setting.

Our projects

Outdoor spaces designed around how they are actually used.

Each project is shown with its starting point, the work carried out and the final result.

Project 01 · Renovation

Tropical villa — complete restoration of an existing timber deck

The existing deck had heavily greyed under sun, humidity and sea air. Several boards were warped. The aim was to retain the sound structure while restoring a clean and consistent finish.

Work completed

  • Inspection of the structure and weakened areas.
  • Removal and replacement of boards that were too damaged.
  • Adjustment of fixings and uneven boards.
  • Deep cleaning, de-greying and finish sanding.
  • Application of a suitable outdoor protective finish.
Result

The deck regains a warm, even appearance without the cost and waste of a complete rebuild.

Project 02 · New installation

North Mauritius villa — large new deck built into the garden

The house already had a beautiful tropical garden, but the outdoor area was underused. The project extended the living room into the garden with a large timber terrace.

Work completed

  • Setting the levels between the house, deck and garden.
  • Ground preparation and construction of the supporting structure.
  • Installation of a large timber deck extending the living area.
  • Wide steps creating a natural transition to the lawn.
  • Careful integration around the existing landscaping.
Result

The villa gains a genuine outdoor living room and a much stronger connection between the house and garden.

Project 03 · Hotel — real project

Beachfront hotel — creation of a timber deck around the pool

A real project completed in Mauritius: the creation of a bespoke timber deck in a hotel environment, around the pool and between the existing palm trees. The goal was to improve circulation, create a more premium finish and integrate the deck naturally into the tropical setting.

Work completed

  • Site preparation and adaptation of the project to an active hotel environment.
  • Creation of a custom timber deck with clean cut-outs around the existing palm trees.
  • Curved deck lines designed to follow the pool area and mineral walkways.
  • Careful board installation, detailing and protective timber finishing.
  • Upgrading the poolside area into a warmer, more premium and more comfortable guest space.
Result

This project transforms the poolside space into a high-end relaxation area. The deck integrates between the palm trees, softens the surrounding mineral surfaces and gives the hotel a warmer, more refined atmosphere.
