Discuss your deckWhat is a synthetic teak deck?
A synthetic teak deck is a man-made deck finish with the appearance of teak. It is intended for boat owners who want a neat teak look with less intensive maintenance than traditional wood. Suitability, substrate and execution are assessed for each boat.
From colour and lines to a suitable finish
A good result starts with clear choices about application, measurements and appearance.
Application
Discuss the deck areas where you are considering a teak-look finish, such as the cockpit, side deck or swim platform.
Colour and caulking
Colour, caulking colour and lines together determine whether the deck looks classic, calm or modern.
Fit
The shape, dimensions and existing substrate must suit a neat made-to-measure finish.
Use and maintenance
The desired look is considered alongside use, maintenance and the condition of the current deck.
Synthetic teak, traditional teak or the existing deck?
Synthetic teak deck
Fits the need for a teak-look deck with less intensive wood maintenance and a made-to-measure appearance.
Traditional teak
Offers the appearance of real wood, but generally requires more maintenance and care.
Keep the existing finish
Sometimes cleaning, local repair or keeping the current non-slip surface is more sensible. The situation on board is decisive.
