How to Install EVODEK Composite Decking
If you’ve installed a deck before, you won’t have any problems laying either square-edge planks or channel-edge planks. However, people who have never assembled a deck before may find it difficult to install composite decking using hidden fasteners.
Not only that, but composite decking can be stored for a long time without warping. On the other hand, composite decking is easier and faster to install than standard wood decking. It is important to note that when installing composite decking, extra space should be set aside before the decking boards. This is to prevent composite decking boards from expanding and contracting due to temperature changes.
If you want to install the decking yourself. Then, you will need a miter saw, drill, and circular saw to do the job yourself. Also, don’t forget the following steps:
Check that the Deck’s Framing Is Stable
Being prepared is the first step to installing the deck correctly. The ledger boards should be properly secured to the house framing. Also, make sure there are tension screw heads on the ledger boards during installation. If not, you may need to add some of these screws to support the house frame.
Proper Spacing of Framing
2 x 10-inch joists should normally be spaced 16 to 24 inches apart. Before you begin assembling your EVODEK composite deck, check your local building codes to see what kind of deck support is required.
Consider the Depth of the Concrete Footings
If the deck footings are not deep enough, the deck will not remain structurally stable during inclement weather. This is true even if you have installed the deck correctly. Therefore, it is essential to ensure that the deck footings are deep enough.
Correct Installation of Fascia Boards
The top of the fascia board should always be higher than the bottom of the deck board. The exact size depends on the brand and other factors. Check the installation instructions to be sure. Most composite decking brands have complete instructions on how to properly install the fascia board. Because it will change the final appearance of the composite decking.
To Summarize
Composite decking is perfect for homeowners who don’t want deck maintenance. It is strong, durable, waterproof, mold and mildew-resistant, and fade-resistant. In addition, you can install composite decking using hidden fasteners. So you get a smooth, blemish-free look to your deck.
