CAN NEWTECHWOOD US05 DECKING FASCIA BE USED AS SIDING?

Yes, NewTechWood US05 fascia boards could be used as siding, installed with NewTechWood fascia screws and fascia tool for setting the screws and allowing for expansion and contraction to prevent warping. Please keep in mind that such an installation will not stop the continued degradation of any existing board and baton siding over which this is laid. It is also best practice to covering the wall surface with a house wrap before installing our fascia boards.

CAN NEWTECHWOOD DECKING BE INSTALLED ON BOTH WOOD FRAMES AND METAL FRAMES?

Yes, as long as it is installed correctly, NewTechWood decking can be installed on both wood and metal framing.

CAN I USE THE DECK BOARDS ON STAIRS?

Yes, you can but will need to install them at 12 inches on center. Please keep in mind that the structure of your stairs could not be made with NewTechWood.

CAN I USE THE DECK BOARDS ON A RAMP?

Yes, as long as you install them 12 inches on center. Please keep in mind that the structure of your ramp could not be made with NewTechWood.

CAN I USE THE CLIPS IF I USE THE DECK BOARDS AS SIDING?

Yes, to do so, either screw through the face to attach them, use the mini-gap clips, or use The Tiger Claw TC-G clip. The boards would still need to be properly supported.

CAN I USE THE CAMO SYSTEM OF DECK FASTENERS? IS THIS CONSIDERED UNDER WARRANTY?

Yes, you can and yes, it would still be under warranty.

CAN I USE NEWTECHWOOD DECK BOARDS TO BUILD A TABLE, BENCH, OR OTHER FURNITURE?

Yes, this is possible but would require the boards to be structurally supported, at 16 inches on center, or less.

CAN I USE BUTYL DECK TAPE ON MY JOISTS IN CONJUNCTION WITH NEWTECHWOOD?

Yes, this would be fine and in fact, has been used before with NewTechWood. NewTechWood, in fact, makes our own joist tape, which will be released later in 2019.

CAN I SCREW THROUGH THE UH02 VOYAGER SERIES HOLLOW DECK BOARDS?

No, we do not recommend screwing through the UH02 boards, using composite screws or otherwise, as this would create cracks in the future. Therefore, doing so voids the warranty.

CAN I PLACE A PERGOLA OVER MY DECKING INSTALLATION?

Yes, this would be fine. A number of installations of our deck boards use pergola. We also make pergola boards, but do not offer the product in the US.
