Balustrading for terraces




Flower pots are an alternative to balustrading around a terrace, but remember - a watering system has to be installed to keep the plants alive.


Here are some of the styles of balustrading available. Most is available in either white or in stone colour, with either a rough/rustic or smooth finish. Prices vary from style to style, between about 80euros and 100euros per linear metre including iva.
1. Menut 35 2. Palomo
1. Cipres 2. Barroco
1. Cipres 2. Cipres 3. Anilla
1. Palomo 2. Palomo 3. Anillo
1. Palomo 2. Ciebo 3. Copa

Another alternative is to simply build a low (about 60cms) wall around a terrace and render it with a white cement mix. This is a much cheaper option to balustrading and is maintenance free as the rendering does not require painting.

Work started on paving driveway

The finished job
Work started last week on paving 60sq m of driveway. The concrete base was already in place and the Tarragona stone has been placed on a bed of sand/cement and then grouted up. This provides an attractive hard standing for vehicles and access to the garage.
