Cleaning and Care
While wood plastic composite decking boards are practically maintenance free and hygienic, there are a few cleaning and care tips that you can use to keep your decking in pristine condition:
- Prior to washing, sweep the deck with a hard bristle broom
- Soap, water and a hard bristle broom work really well for scrubbing the deck down
- Rinse after scrubbing and let the deck dry natrually
- For the best results, a high pressure hose works best to remove tougher marks and any debris from trees, birds or pets (please check the water restrictions in your local area before using a high pressure hose)
- Cleaning up spills as soon as they occur will help with long term maintenance
- Adhesive floor protectors underneath your patio furniture work incredibly well to aleviate scratches or scuff marks
- Lifting your patio furniture whilst moving it will also help prevent scratches
- Using a carpet or matting close to your BBQ / braai area will help prevent coal burn marks or fatty stains that may end up on your deck
