A good decking solution needs to be able to stand up to all of the things that the weather throws at it and if it doesn\u2019t then users are faced with constant maintenance and upkeep&#8230; Only

The blend of <a href=\"https:\/\/neotimber.com\/decking\/wpc-decking\/\">wood and plastic<\/a> ensures that the boards remain resistant to moisture, which is often the key contributor to high-maintenance timber alternatives. The board\u2019s moisture-resistant seal ensures that they do not suffer from the damaging effects of the weather which, left untreated can often wreak havoc on more traditional timber decking solutions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">A <a href=\"https:\/\/neotimber.com\/decking\/advice\/warranty-care\/care-guide\/\">twice yearly clean of your deck<\/a> using domestic grade soap, warm water and a soft brush is the extent of the maintenance that we recommend. Not only does this ensure that the boards remain at their sparkling best, but also removes any material build up that can sometimes collect between boards (which is key to ensuring your low-maintenance composite decking isn\u2019t affected by moisture build up).<\/p>\n<\/div><div class=\"fusion-clearfix\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-fullwidth fullwidth-box fusion-builder-row-5 nonhundred-percent-fullwidth non-hundred-percent-height-scrolling\" style=\"--awb-border-radius-top-left:0px;--awb-border-radius-top-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-right:0px;--awb-border-radius-bottom-left:0px;--awb-flex-wrap:wrap;\" ><div class=\"fusion-builder-row fusion-row\"><div class=\"fusion-layout-column fusion_builder_column fusion-builder-column-6 fusion_builder_column_1_1 1_1 fusion-one-full fusion-column-first fusion-column-last\" style=\"--awb-bg-size:cover;\"><div class=\"fusion-column-wrapper fusion-column-has-shadow fusion-flex-column-wrapper-legacy\"><div class=\"fusion-title title fusion-title-3 fusion-title-center fusion-title-text fusion-title-size-three\"><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-left\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-double sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#e0dede;\"><\/div><\/div><span class=\"awb-title-spacer\"><\/span><h3 class=\"fusion-title-heading title-heading-center fusion-responsive-typography-calculated\" style=\"margin:0;--fontSize:25;--minFontSize:25;line-height:1.3;\">For A Deeper Clean<\/h3><span class=\"awb-title-spacer\"><\/span><div class=\"title-sep-container title-sep-container-right\"><div class=\"title-sep sep-double sep-solid\" style=\"border-color:#e0dede;\"><\/div><\/div><\/div><div class=\"fusion-text fusion-text-3\"><p style=\"text-align: center;\">While we believe the above level of maintenance is enough for most decking environments &#8211; we do understand that all areas are different, and some require a higher level of upkeep.
