Common Questions About Decking

How do you clean UPVC decking?

Very easily if it’s a Lakeland deck because it is practically maintenance-free – no repainting, resealing, or staining will ever be required.

Ingrained dirt can be removed from the deckboards using a hose, and if there’s any mould or mildew, a decking-specific cleaner should shift it.

The application of the PVC deck restorer, E2 PVC Deck Revitilizer, just once every 12 months is excellent for reversing any slight fading, weathering, staining or scratches that manifest.

Can you build decking on a slope?

Lakeland Verandahs has managed to construct decking in the most irregular and steep-sloped gardens, so the answer is yes, you can!

The secret to it is ensuring that the posts supporting the decking frame have solid, firm foundations – it’s all in the ground preparation.

Our vastly experienced installation teams always put in the necessary groundwork to unearth an appropriate foundation for sloped decking projects.

How long does decking last?
