Browse Forums Outdoor Living 1 Aug 02, 2013 5:50 pm We are having our merbau deck extended - is it possible to stain merbau to give it a different tone/colour - or are we pretty much stuck with the reddish colour that it is?? Am thinking if anything, could only go darker? I would have preferred a different timber to begin with, but the existing deck was already there when we bought the house so changing the entire deck would be too costly at this stage - so merbau it is. It's not even that I am opposed so much to the colour in itself (kinda ).... but..... I have ideas to introduce timber features elsewhere in our landscaping (screens and gates, possibly some benches) and I don't really want to use merbau for those - so trying to find a way to tone the merbau closer to whatever other timber we may use. It may not be an issue if we use a different timber in different applications - might look ok together (any opinions?). But just posing the question at this point as I ponder my future landscaping ideas. HHCIB Been in a similar position and we decided to let the builder go. Some of the PSA money goes to engineering so we at least got those documents and they actually refunded us… 2 6014 Hi, you've probably already resolved this, however, Commbank will probably pay the funds to you after you send evidence the work is done regardless the change in the quotes. 1 35191 5 10417 |
