Biggest Mistakes Many Composite Deck Owners Make

   Many owners have been told composite decks are maintenance free. Therefore they fail to do periodic cleaning to remove mold, mildew & algae stains which rapidly begin to take root in the pores of the composite surface. In a short time, mold spots & mildew begin to develop, becoming progressively worse. If these stains are left on the surface for an extended period, removal can be expensive, frustrating & labor intensive. Regular cleaning at least 1-2 times a season is highly recommended by composite manufacturers to remove rapid build-up of dirt, stains, algae, mold & mildew.
2. Using an ordinary deck cleaner containing chlorine bleach-
