GREEN CLEANING OF Composite Wood Decks

The inevitable…the fun…the exciting…scrubbing Decks!

Okay, it's definitely not part of the day people actually get excited about. But to keep your deck looking like new, it's a necessary part of any deck maintenance.

You need to be very selective in the ways in which you clean your composite wood decks. Wood Composite Veranda Railing can last decades if treated with care, but it can be ruined or start to look dull and deteriorate quickly if the wrong products or tools are used.

And as we all try to be, if you want to be environmentally minded, then there's no reason to ever use the chemical-laden products sold with or alongside your decking materials. Simple is almost always best, and luckily there is some trustworthy, green, and easy ways to take care of your composite woods.

The sin of all sins, though it's the greenest of all green products, in maintaining and cleaning composite wood is water.

Not just water, but too much water. You never want to flood or pool water on a wood Deck. Water wreaks havoc on wood Decks, because it's easy for water to seep into the cracks between deck boards or along the edges of the deck, even into tiny cracks and scratches in the brain itself, no matter how fast you swing the mop into action. So, no big mop bucket allowed.

How to Installing Composite Decking ?The best method to clean a wood composite veranda railing is to utilize small amounts of liquid with either a rag or sponge that has been strenuously wrung out—no drips. And again, there's no reason to spend money and harm your indoor air quality on expensive cleaning products.

Do check out the specs on your particular type of wood, though, to make sure you use the correct natural product for your deck because all woods, finishes, and applications are different. Also be sure and test any method on a diminutive, inconspicuous place before jumping to do the whole deck. Nevertheless, once you get the go ahead from your supplier and/or your own tests, two of the most popular cleaners are tea or vinegar.

Simply mix a weak vinegar mixture (one-half cup of white distilled vinegar to one gallon of cold water) or brew a weak team (two or three tea bags to a gallon of water), allowing it to steep for about five minutes. Then just run either on with a damp cloth or mop and dry as you go along.Outdoor Floor Decking Tiles.

It is difficult to compare solid wood decking to engineer wood decking due to the wide range of quality in both product categories, particularly engineered. There are some limitations of dense wood: it cannot be installed directly over concrete. There are recommended maximum lengths and widths, typically 5" / 127mm wide and 7' / 2100mm long. Solid composite wood is also more prone to "gapping". "crowning" and "cupping" with increased plant size. Sturdy wood should also not be used with radiant Deck heating.
