A well-loved timber deck is the heart of outdoor living, and with the right care, it will look its best for years to come. 🏡
Here are our top tips for keeping your deck in great shape:
1. Clear and sweep. Remove furniture and objects, then gently sweep away dirt and debris with a soft-bristled brush.
2. Clean regularly. Leaves left sitting can cause discolouration and mould. Use a cleaner suited to your deck type and rinse thoroughly.
3. Check for damage. Keep an eye out for loose or cracked boards and raised nails, and fix them early to keep your family safe.
4. Seal once a year. Splash the boards with a little water. If it soaks in rather than running off, it’s time for a fresh coat of oil or stain.
5. Choose the right day. Check the forecast before sealing and allow 48 hours before using your deck again.
