“How Often Should Timber Decking Be Treated?” is one of the questions we're asked most about timber and garden decking here in Worcestershire. This guide covers what actually affects the answer, from an SPR Trees & Landscapes team that's been doing this work for over 15 years.
What Maintenance Actually Involves
Most garden decking needs far less upkeep than people expect, but “low maintenance” doesn't mean “no maintenance”. A little regular attention goes a long way toward keeping things looking right and lasting as long as they should.
A Simple Routine
- A quick visual check every few months for early signs of wear
- Keeping the area clear of debris, leaves and moss build-up
- Addressing small issues before they become bigger, costlier ones
- Following any specific manufacturer guidance for the materials used
