How long does the deck restoration process take?
The process will take between one and three days (weather permitting) depending on what needs to be done. Once coating is completed, it is recommended to wait 24 hours before walking on the deck and a further 2-3 days before returning any furniture and items.
What types of decking products do we use and recommend?
For a recoat we match the original products or equivalent. For a sanded restoration or new build, a product best suited for requirements. Generally, we use and recommend Intergrain Ultradeck, Sikkens Cetol HLSe, Feast Watson Wet Look and Cabots Traditional Decking Oil. If you have a preference for a product, we are happy to use them.
When should my deck be re coated?
The key to maintaining a great looking deck is to undertake maintenance, cleaning and coating at regular intervals. The interval may vary depending on exposure to weather, moisture and level of usage.
Decks should generally be maintained with regular washing using a product like Sugar Soap, and re-coating of the existing product every 12 to 18 months depending on the level of wear and exposure to weather. It is important not to allow the coating to break down.
We maintain a record of your decking work and are happy to provide a maintenance program to suit your needs.
I’ve built a new deck, should I apply coating straight away?
It is recommended that new decking timber be left to allow the natural tannins and oils to dissipate for 6 -12 weeks, depending on the type of timber used. This process can be sped up by frequently washing down the decking timber or using one of the specialist cleaning products available.
