FAQs

What are the dimensions of each decking board?

Each board measures 2.2 meters in length, 146mm in width, and 20mm in depth.

How long is the manufacturer's guarantee against rot?

The boards come with a 10-year manufacturer's guarantee against rot.

Can I use these boards for a poolside area?

Yes, the non-slip and low water absorption properties make them an excellent and safe choice for poolside areas.

How do I clean the composite decking boards?

Regular sweeping is recommended. For cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Rinse thoroughly. Avoid abrasive cleaners.

Will the color fade significantly in the sun?

Composite shades may vary slightly after prolonged exposure to strong sunlight. However, they are designed for outdoor use and offer good color retention compared to many traditional materials.

What is the advantage of the honeycomb structure?

The honeycomb structure provides a strong and rigid surface while keeping the boards lightweight, which simplifies handling and installation.

Can I switch the style of the decking after installation?

Yes, the boards are reversible. You can choose between the wood grain effect on one side or the narrow grooves on the other, offering flexibility in your design.

Troubleshooting

Boards appear to have slight color inconsistencies upon arrival.

This can sometimes occur due to manufacturing batches or lighting during inspection. Allow the boards to acclimate to outdoor light conditions for a few days; minor variations often become less noticeable. If significant differences persist, contact customer support.

Difficulty cutting the composite boards cleanly.

Ensure you are using a sharp, fine-toothed saw blade specifically recommended for composite materials. Cutting too quickly or with a dull blade can lead to rough edges.

Surface feels slightly slippery after rain.

While designed to be non-slip, very wet conditions can still reduce traction. Ensure the surface is clean of any algae or residue. Periodic cleaning with a mild detergent can help maintain grip. For extreme cases, anti-slip treatments specifically designed for composite decking can be considered.

Concerns about material expansion/contraction.

Proper installation with appropriate gapping between boards and at the edges is crucial. Refer to installation guides for recommended spacing to accommodate natural material movement.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Low maintenance compared to traditional wood decking.
  • Enhanced safety due to non-slip and splinter-free properties.
  • Dual-sided design offers aesthetic flexibility.
  • Durable and resistant to rot and water damage.
  • Easy to install with common DIY tools.

Cons

  • Potential for slight color variation after extended sun exposure.
  • Delivery may incur surcharges to certain areas.
  • Requires someone to be present for delivery.
  • Not suitable for environments requiring extreme structural load-bearing capacity beyond typical decking use.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup: These composite decking boards are designed for straightforward DIY installation. Use standard woodworking tools such as circular saws for cutting and appropriate fasteners for securing the boards to your substructure. Ensure a proper substructure is in place, following recommended spacing guidelines to allow for ventilation and expansion/contraction.

Compatibility: The boards are compatible with most standard decking substructures made from wood or metal. Always check the recommended fastening methods for composite decking to ensure optimal performance and longevity.

Care: To maintain the appearance and longevity of your decking, regular cleaning is recommended. Sweep away loose debris periodically. For deeper cleaning, use a mild soap and water solution with a soft brush or cloth. Avoid abrasive cleaners or power washers, which can damage the surface. Rinse thoroughly with clean water. Note that while the material is designed to resist fading, some slight shade changes may occur with prolonged, intense sun exposure. Ensure adequate spacing between boards to allow for water drainage and air circulation.
