Installation Tips for Garden Walkway Projects

Proper installation is crucial for maximizing the lifespan of your garden walkway. First, ensure the sub-base is level, well-drained, and compacted; a gravel or concrete foundation is highly recommended to prevent soil shifting and uneven settling. When laying the support joists, maintain a spacing of 300mm to 400mm for standard straight installations, or reduce it to 250mm if laying the boards diagonally. Always maintain a minimum gap of 5mm between boards and 10mm at the ends to allow for natural thermal expansion. Use our hidden clip system to secure the boards, which not only provides a clean, nail-free surface but also allows for slight movement. For garden walkways with curves, gently heat the boards to bend them without breaking the core. Always leave a 15mm expansion gap around fixed structures like walls, steps, or planters. Finally, ensure a slight slope (1-2%) for water runoff to keep the surface dry and clean.
