Care & Maintenance of Timber Decking

9/1/2016

Comments

 
In Melbourne, Timber Decking is considered a long-term investment. Ask any Timber Deck Builder in Melbourne.

It is advisable you have a talk with your Timber Decking Contractor to get maintenance tips and advice for your desired brand of finish. On the other hand, the upkeep hints, as well as maintenance advice shared by our experts at echoed (part of the Timber Decking Now Group) will help maintain the looks of your Timber Decking for a long time.

General Maintenance and Precaution Tips
  • Before placing furniture, wait for 48 hours from application of the final layer of Decking Oil or Varnish. This is not applicable to decking that has no finish applied after construction).
  • To lessen the danger of scratching the decking, fit protective pads to the legs of furniture. To safeguard the surface of decking, use protective mats for furniture sporting castors.
  • Grit and dirt may lead to scraping and excessive wear of a hardwood timber decking. Most Professional Deck builders in Melbourne will recommend soil trapping mats at all exterior doors to minimise sand, grit, and soil that may be brought indoors. Hall runners and little rugs may also be ideal. Ensure you frequently have high traffic areas swept using an electrostatic mop or soft bristle broom.
  • The color of every Hardwood deck will change, fade or lighten (where exposed to the sun). If you have furniture on your Deck, move it around on a regular basis to avoid irregular declaration.
  • In regions where moisture or extreme temperature variations occur, cupping or gaps may show up on the deck.
  • A hard Decking surface can be dented by shoes (ie High Heels). Special attention needs to be taken to remove shoes which have exposed or pointed heels in order to avoid possible damage to your hardwood timber decking.
  • Pets with claws or long nails can tarnish and scratch the deck finish. Always make sure pets claws or nails are trimmed frequently.
  • One of the great benefits of timber decking is the fact that it can be refinished when it becomes dented or scratched excessively. Our timber decking experts at Timber Decking Now can refurbish or rejuvenate old decking (so long as the underlying sub-floor is sound).
