    I was convinced this was the solution for my concrete deck. I went to IKEA and bought their Runnen tiles. They are made of a very cheap wood in Vietnam. They won't last a season. Ipe wood is much harder but it's still wood and will need to be stained/treated annually. Best solution is Trex or another brand of composite tiles that are maintenance free. Also those plastic frames creak when you walk on them.

Oh, well a little poured gasoline every year on the strip of weeds will kill it for a season. I think the plastic walkway might be good for 5 to 7 years...before it starts breaking apart and discoloring. Nothing permanent there. Someone's going to be walking outside and hurt their ankles on those low hung boxes...I'd fear the liability of pedestrians. All looks good for a little while.

    They have a rubber hammer laying on the wall, yet use their hands to punch those tiles together. Good way to get some medical issues.

    Really ! A homeowner spends all that money on a patio project like that ,and your not encouraged by the contractor to spend a little more money ,and raise the gate a few inches and lay the tiles over the entire patio area for a more professional look. When the gate is closed, who the hell wants to look at a large concrete pad! Greetings from Cincy Ohio U.S.A.
