Client requirements:
The project began with a consultation to understand the homeowners' vision and requirements. Legacy Installers conducted a site survey to assess the area and planned the layout for the life-size chessboard. The design was finalised, ensuring it aligned with the homeowners' preferences and the garden's overall aesthetic.
Material Selection:
The homeowners selected two distinct colours for the chessboard: 3mm Midnight for the black squares and 3mm Artico White for the white squares. These choices provided a striking contrast, enhancing the visual impact of the chessboard.
Preparation:
The preparation stage involved clearing and levelling the designated area. This was crucial for ensuring a smooth and even surface for the resin bound application. Legacy Installers took care to create a solid base, essential for the durability and longevity of the installation.
Installation:
Using SureSet DIY Kits, Legacy Installers carefully mixed the resin with the chosen aggregates. The intricate nature of the project required precision and attention to detail. The team meticulously poured and spread the resin mixture into a pre-marked grid to form the individual squares of the chessboard. This step-by-step approach ensured that the pattern was precise and the surface was even.
Finishing Touches:
Once the resin bound chessboard was laid out, it was left to cure. This curing process is always critical to achieve the desired hardness and finish. After curing, the chessboard was inspected to ensure it met quality standards and the homeowners' expectations.
Outcome:
The finished resin bound chessboard exceeded the homeowners' expectations. The Midnight and Artico White colours created a visually stunning and functional game area that seamlessly integrated with their garden. The durability of the resin bound surface ensures that the chessboard will withstand the elements and provide enjoyment for years to come.
