For best results we recommend using experienced landscapers to install your decking but as a rule of thumb the following are our recommended installation tips;-

  • Frame centres – 400mm > 500mm
  • Frame to run perpendicular to the decking
  • Frame to be well ventilated and good drainage
  • Decking boards be fixed to every joist with decking using DECKWISE extreme fixing kits following instructions supplied see

https://ipedeckingsuppliers.co.uk/products/details/deckwise-extreme-hidden-decking-fixings-2-4mm-gap

Finishing your decking using trade standard Osmo products which can be sourced through us.

  • Leave decking unfinished for 12 months to allow the wood to settle and natural oil to dissipate. The natural weathering process in this time will remove millglaze and allow the timber to take on an oil.
  • During the settling period the timber is likely to silver due to exposure to sunlight. Wet the timber and whilst wet work in Osmo Wood Reviver Gel using the Osmo cleaning brush. The timber must remain wet to activate the cleaner and be worked into the surface for best results. Leave the gel on for approx. 30 minutes then wash off with plenty of water.
  • Leave the decking to dry at least 24 hours
  • Apply Osmo 006 Bangkirai Decking Oil or if you desire a darker appearance Osmo Bog Oak Decking Oil. Either options requires two coats and 12 hours drying time between each application.
  • For best practice and presuming the decking gets plenty of sun through the summer we recommend oiling in the Spring and again in Autumn. Should the deck be shaded for part of the day then oiling may only be required once every 12 – 18 months.
  • Note should the deck become grey then repeat the application of Wood reviver Gel before oiling.
