Use and Care Manual

Ice Removal
As with any walking surface, TimberTech decking products may become slippery in
winter weather. Take caution when walking on your TimberTech deck in these conditions.
Most products containing calcium chloride can be used without damage to the deck/
porch surface. These products may leave a white residue which can be cleaned using the
cleaning guidelines above. Metal shovels or plastic shovels with a metal leading edge
may damage the surface of TimberTech decking and are not recommended for clearing
snow from the deck surface.
Do not allow airborne dust from concrete, landscape blocks, or any masonry product
to accumulate on the surface of TimberTech Deck, Rail, and accessories as it may
damage the surface of the deck. Do not cut any product on or near TimberTech Decking
Products. Always remove job site dust, clay, dirt, mud, and other construction products
from TimberTech Deck, Rail, and accessory products quickly. Do not allow construction
dirt and debris to sit on the TimberTech Deck surface. Do not cut metal objects such as
railing on the deck surface, the hot debris from the cut may become embedded in the
deck surface resulting in staining and damage.
