Outdure Composite Deck Build at Rotorua Aquatic Centre
Setting: Commercial | Location: Rotorua Aquatic Centre, Rotorua | Product: Outdure | Colour: CasaDeck – Walnut Mixdure |
The Rotorua Aquatic Centre, a popular facility catering to aquatic sports and recreational activities underwent a revamp to extend its pool and upgrade its amenities. Baywood Construction, a renowned deck builder, was entrusted by Naylor Love to install new composite decking around the pool’s perimeter and create step-down areas adjacent to the grassed zones.
To ensure the deck could withstand the demands of heavy foot traffic, water exposure, and the unique geothermal conditions of the centre, Outdure’s composite decking, in combination with their Qwickbuild Aluminium Deck Framing, was chosen. This strategic selection offered a host of advantages, including excellent slip resistance, weather resistance, and outstanding durability specifically designed for outdoor environments. The aluminium framing provided essential structural stability and corrosion resistance, establishing a solid and long- lasting foundation for the deck.
Baywood Construction skillfully installed the new composite decking, covering an expansive area of 705m2 of the pool area, which encompassed a well-designed 150m2 staircase. The revitalized deck not only met the high demands of the centre’s visitors but also prioritised longevity, safety and ease of maintenance, ensuring its lasting functionality.
The successful completion of the deck build significantly enhanced the overall appeal of the Rotorua Aquatic Centre, aligning with its mission to provide high quality aquatic programs and services to the local community and beyond. By leveraging the expertise of Baywood Construction and choosing Outdure’s composite decking solution, the project created an inviting and durable environment that would service the centre’s needs for years to come.
