Setup, Compatibility & Care
Storage: Keep boards in a dry, well-ventilated area off the ground before installation to prevent premature warping.
Installation: Always use galvanized or stainless steel screws to prevent rust marks and ensure the fasteners are rated for outdoor pressure-treated timber.
Cuts: When cutting the timber, apply a suitable wood preservative to any exposed raw ends to maintain the integrity of the pressure treatment.
Care: We recommend applying a high-quality decking oil or stain every 12 to 24 months to nourish the wood and enhance its natural water repellency.
Safety: Always wear appropriate protective gear, including gloves and a mask, when cutting or sanding treated timber to avoid irritation from dust.
