We have stood on balconies where the boards break beneath us

We see balconies where the wood is so waterlogged and worn that, in the worst case, it could break under someone.

What we do about it

Sanding and oiling will fix it when the surface is worn, but the construction is still sound. The oil keeps the wood fibres down, so the surface becomes smooth to walk on again.

Local company warns: "The balcony could collapse beneath you"

It lives and moves, and if it doesn't get oil and care, it becomes both ugly and dangerous.

What we do about it

We wash off the algae and sand the surface smooth. Afterwards, we oil it so the wood absorbs less moisture and the algae have a harder time taking hold.

Do you have a balcony or wooden deck?

With a regular oiling plan, we keep track of the schedule. We contact you in spring and autumn, book a date and oil the wood, so you do not have to remember it yourself.

Are you on the association board, or do you own the property?

We will inspect the balconies and assess whether sanding and oiling will be sufficient. We will plan the work to minimise disruption to residents.
