Ronseal Decking Oil <\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This Ronseal oil is one of the most popular deck products for a reason, it’s easy to use and the process is incredibly simple. This particular product<\/a> is a durable scuff-resistant oil that forms a waterproof barrier to protect against weathering, warping, swelling, drying and splitting, all of which are common issues caused by damp weather and, as a bonus, hardly changes the natural colour of your decking. Not only that, but it resists mould and algae growth and its fade resistant finish protects against UV rays. This oil is great for use on both hardwood and softwood decking.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

2.5 litres only \u00a325.49\u00a0each. Fully inclusive of VAT!<\/a><\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n

Ronseal Ultimate Decking Oil<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

If you have maintained your deck throughout the year, you may not want to do another full treatment. This ultimate decking protection<\/a> gives superior nourishment and protection from all the elements with a natural finish similar to the classic Ronseal oil<\/a>, it’s great if you have previously used this and want to give your decking some extra protection. It’s rainproof in just 90 minutes and resists mould and algae growth and also lasts twice as long as standard decking oils so you don’t need to worry about topping it up when summer comes back around.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Joist End Grain Sealer<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This product<\/a> is a clear preserver, so it protects your decking whilst maintaining its colouring. It is formulated to protect against attack by wood-rotting fungi and will protect your deck from testing weather conditions but is only for use as a preservative. We recommend using two coats of this product for it to be more effective.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

This product is a unique wax enriched formula that creates a superb barrier against water penetration and helps prevent discolouration by protecting the deck against constant wetting, drying, splitting and swelling. It resists greying, surface mould and algae growth and is ideal for spraying so you won’t have to scrub on your hands and knees.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
