Care Guidelines for Composite Outdoor Decks
While composite decking requires no sanding or staining, simple maintenance preserves warranties.
Simple Care Guidelines
- Annual Wash: Wash with mild soap, warm water, and a soft-bristle brush to remove pollen and leaf stains.
- Scratch Management: Small scuffs can be softened using a heat gun, but deep scratches require panel swap.
- Under-deck clearing: Clear leaves between board gaps to maintain good airflow.
