Hello Tiki Central, I have been a member / lurker for about 1 year now. Finally got up the 'nerve' to post a few pics of the QH Tiki Deck. It has been under construction for about 1 1/2 years now.... never finished. Hope I did this correctly. Oh yea.... just got choc lab.... named her Tiki. |

Thank you WestADad. The panels offer a bit more deck neighbor privacy.... the only house we can see from our deck.... good neighbors though! |

Thanks! I added a pic of the bar top. 5 different colors of composite decking, puzzle cut. Stands up well to outside, food / drink spills, etc. |

Composite decking bar top - good call. I think it needs an inlaid Moai silhouette on one or both ends. From the looks of the privacy screens that would be no problem for you. |

Thank you.... if used, hope it works for ya. No fasteners for puzzle pieces, they just lie on exterior / paint sealed plywood base. |

Any concerns about the rattan (and bamboo) holding up in the elements? Did you treat it at all? |

Well... both the rattan and bamboo do weather a bit, loose their lightish color. I have had to spray some areas with a light bleach solution for cleaning, etc. I try not to worry too much about it... outside bar, natural weathering, etc. I call it patina... my wife hates that word... :wink: The protected pieces do hold up better / retain their appearance. Coating, might work.... I'd weigh work versus benefit. The composite decking looks as good as the day I installed it. Hope this helps.... qh tiki. |

Hey that's a great looking space. From the photos I'd have to say that your deck is bigger than mine. But then they say size doesn't matter. |
