N&J Building Services Ltd Undertake Remediation Project at The Boardwalk in Eastbourne, East Sussex in Partnership with AliDeck | Balcony Decking Solutions

Strict reviews of external envelope materials have been at the forefront of the building construction industry in recent years, driven by the need to create a fire-safe and futureproof environment for thousands of leaseholders across the UK. In many cases, the balcony decking materials used in older buildings are no longer compliant with the latest fire safety regulations.

AliDeck have recently partnered with N&J Building Services Ltd for the remedial works at the Boardwalk at Midway Quays, a residential apartment complex in Eastbourne, East Sussex. For this project, our extremely popular Junior Flat and Senior Flat non-combustible decking boards were specified as the ideal solution to create a cost-effective and futureproof environment.

N&J are established specialist contractors that have been operating in London and the South East for over 15 years. They place a huge emphasis on delivering each contract with sustainability in mind. Their personal approach with clients and stakeholders to deliver successful projects aligns perfectly with AliDeck, creating an ideal partnership for this project

Close Collaboration Key as Cost-Effective Fire-safe Solutions Guarantee Project Success

Aluminium decking boards create a fire-safe outdoor living space that will provide a robust and aesthetically pleasing environment. AliDeck products benefit from a fire-rating of A2-s1, d0 and A2fl-s1 and a minimum life expectancy of 60 years, offering a true return on such a long-term investment. We also offer a 30 year manufacturer guarantee for additional peace of mind.

A variety of our aluminium joists were also used to create the necessary build-up heights for the decking boards. These include AliDeck’s Supa Joist, Low Joist, and Lite Joist. The unique design features and benefits of each product make them an ideal solution for different areas of the project.

Due to the fact that The Boardwalk at Midway Quays is a coastal project it required a durable solution. Our Qualicoat Seaside Standard finish was therefore the perfect choice. This high-quality powder-coat will protect the aluminium decking boards and balcony components from the effects of corrosion in the harsh coastal environment, ensuring that they last for decades to come.

The resulting finish far exceeds the industry standard, providing increased durability, reduced maintenance, and enhanced aesthetics. We offer a range of 10 standard colours, as well as bespoke options in any RAL colour to meet all project specifications.

All products are powder-coated in-house using Class 2 powders only, in this case our popular Textured Silver Grey. The Qualicoat Seaside powder-coating is resistant to salt water, UV rays, and uses chemicals that are more eco-friendly than traditional paint, making it perfect for coastal and outdoor applications.
