Balcony wooden tiles and green plants for a casual outdoor breakfast
The wooden balcony tiles are generally laid in two versions - parallel or in a checkerboard pattern. The elements are easily inserted into each other and large areas can be covered in a short time. A prerequisite for best results is a firm and level floor. They are best suitedConcrete, ceramic tiles or asphalt. If necessary, the parts can be taken apart so that the flooring underneath can be plastered. The wooden floor tiles can be re-glazed once a year so that the surface does not lose its original color and durability. Our tip: The wood weathers when it is exposed to waterlogging. Therefore, do not lay the wooden elements directly on the grass carpet if you want to combine wooden balcony tiles with artificial grass for a more natural look. A solid base is needed for this purpose. When laying in the immediate vicinity of lawn, you should definitely lay out a root fleece.
Balcony tiles made of wood – assembly and types of wood
If you find out about the different types of wood and their properties before buying, pay attention to the FSC seal. Only labeled wood material guarantees a controlled and legal origin. Asian woods are very resistant to moisture. Nevertheless, they are actually tropical species and often come from jungles. A suitable local material for wooden balcony tiles is larch and if installed appropriately with sufficient ventilation, this type of wood can last up to 100 years. Elements made of acacia or softwood are optional. There are also many products available commercially that are made from composites of wood and plastics. They are particularly easy to care for, insensitive to the weather and can hardly be distinguished from real wood or offer another modern and interesting color design.
Tiles without fixed installation
Wooden balcony tiles do not require installation on a solid surface. They can be sawn as necessary with a fine hand saw to adjust to the desired position. Otherwise you don't need any other tools or aids for laying. This allows different patterns and arrangements to be achieved. Wood tiles are usually cut square and can be laid according to your own taste. They vary in strength and size and therefore also in price. Species can be found in specialist wood shops for around two euros per piece (e.g. at Ikea - Runnen), while others are available for 25 euros per piece.
