Fence
Rule of thumb: a post about every 1.8 m, including the start and end post. Corners, gates and slopes need more. Cost bands: fence costs.
Decking
For boards about 145 mm wide you need roughly 7 running metres of board per m². Divide that by the board length to get the number of boards. Decking usually has no cutting waste.
Insulation
Our PIR sheets are about 0.60 × 1.20 m (0.72 m² each). Add cutting waste; the calculator uses 10%. Guide: PIR thickness · shop: insulation.
