FAQs

How long will the sleepers last?

With proper installation and care, the pressure-treated sleepers should last for many years, even in outdoor conditions.

Are the sleepers safe for use in contact with soil?

Yes, the pressure treatment makes them suitable for use in contact with soil and plants.

Can I paint or stain the sleepers?

Yes, you can paint or stain the sleepers to change their colour or add extra protection. Ensure the product you use is suitable for exterior wood.

What tools do I need for installation?

You'll need a saw, level, measuring tape, drill (for screws), and potentially a shovel or spade for ground preparation.

How do I maintain the green finish?

Clean the sleepers periodically with mild soap and water. You can apply a wood protector or stain to refresh the colour.

Can I cut the sleepers to different lengths?

Yes, you can easily cut the sleepers to your desired lengths using a saw. Always use appropriate safety gear, such as safety glasses.

How should I store the sleepers if I don't use them immediately?

Store the sleepers in a dry place, off the ground, and protected from direct sunlight to preserve their condition.

Troubleshooting

Sleeper is splitting or cracking.

Ensure that the sleepers are not exposed to extreme temperature variations. Consider using wood preservatives to protect the surface.

Green finish is fading.

Clean the sleepers with a mild soap and water solution. Apply a wood stain or sealant to restore the colour and add an extra layer of protection.

Sleeper is rotting.

This is unlikely due to the pressure treatment, but if it occurs, check the drainage and make sure the wood isn't constantly wet. Replace any sleepers showing signs of advanced rot.
