What is the best decking material for humid climates?
In humid climates, composite decking and hardwoods like spotted gum or merbau perform well due to their resistance to moisture and decay. These materials are less prone to warping, mould growth and insect damage. Proper airflow beneath the deck and regular maintenance are also essential for long-term durability.
Can you install decking in winter?
Yes, decking can be installed in winter, provided weather conditions are dry and temperatures aren’t too low for adhesives or treatments to cure properly. In fact, off-peak seasons often mean shorter wait times. However, it’s important to ensure timber stays dry during installation to avoid future warping or swelling.
What’s the difference between grooved and smooth decking boards?
Grooved decking boards are often used for hidden fastening systems and may offer slightly better grip underfoot, especially in wet conditions. Smooth boards provide a clean, contemporary look and are easier to sweep or clean. The choice depends on aesthetic preferences, safety needs and the intended use of the deck.
How do I know if my deck needs replacing?
Signs that a deck may need replacing include rotting or soft timber, unstable railings, loose or rusted fasteners and significant structural movement. If boards sag, split or hold water, the damage may be beyond repair. A full inspection can determine whether restoration is possible or a complete rebuild is safer.
