The work carried out
The job combined board repairs and surface care. The team first repaired the raised and distorted deck boards, then carried out cleaning and surface preparation, including the polishing recorded for the project, before applying Cabot’s oil-based decking oil. The photographs below show the surface before work, after cleaning, during oil application and on completion.
The finished work
The Melba project combined repairs to lifted and distorted deck boards with cleaning, preparation and oiling. The finished photos show the renewed timber surface after both stages. Our deck maintenance and finishing guide explains surface care, while the repair-or-rebuild guide explains the assessment behind a wider repair decision. We assess your deck’s condition and agree its own scope before work.
