Tips on proper care and installation of Mahogany Wood Decking:

  • Use stainless steel screws and nails.
    • As some other types will not penetrate Mahogany wood decking very well, it is advised to use stainless steel screws and nails.
  • Use clear sealer in treating the wood.
    • Aside from the fact that the clear sealer doesn’t change the color of the wood, it preserves the wood’s natural color which makes it elegant. It also provides a layer of protection to your Mahogany wood decking. I also re-apply the clear sealer on the Mahogany wood decking
      yearly to prevent he color to fade.
  • Regularly clean your deck.
    • Keeping it clean makes Mahogany wood
      decking to last longer. It is an effective way of resisting wood rots and
      preventing the color to fade. Damp cloth is enough in removing dirt from the
      surface. To keep corrosive substance on the deck’s surface, I lightly rub it
      with table wax or standard wood furniture cleaner. I do this once a month.
  • Deck spacing is also important.
    • In installing a mahogany wood decking, one should also consider the seasonal and moisture expansion. I would usually leave ¼” space between deck boards, while I leave the ends tight. Mahogany wood
      will not expand lengthwise.

differ depending on the type of the Mahogany wood and the demands in the market. Though Mahogany tree decking is expensive it is in a very reasonable price; I tell you, you could never go wrong in choosing Mahogany
