Composite decking is designed for UV resistance, but some minimal fading can occur over extended periods. Proper cleaning helps maintain the appearance.
Check that the sub-structure is perfectly level and stable. Ensure expansion gaps were left between boards and at the ends to accommodate temperature changes.
Use a fine-toothed blade on a circular saw or jigsaw. Ensure the boards are securely supported during cutting and consider using a guide for straight cuts.
Clean with warm, soapy water and a soft brush. Rinse thoroughly. For stubborn marks, a specialized composite deck cleaner may be necessary.
Pre-drilling pilot holes slightly smaller than the screw diameter can help. Ensure you are using screws specifically designed for composite decking.
Setup: These composite decking boards are designed for DIY installation. Ensure you have a stable and level sub-structure, typically made of treated timber or metal joists. Follow standard decking installation practices, allowing for expansion gaps between boards as recommended by the manufacturer. Use appropriate decking screws designed for composite materials.
Compatibility: The boards are compatible with standard decking accessories and sub-frame systems. Ensure your chosen sub-structure meets local building codes and provides adequate support for the intended load.
Care: Cleaning is straightforward. For routine maintenance, sweep away debris regularly. For dirt or stains, use a soft brush with mild soap and water. Avoid abrasive cleaners or power washers, as they can damage the surface. Periodically check for any debris that might have accumulated between boards.
