Regular visual checks can help identify wear or damage early. Follow the installer’s care guidance and ask for a professional assessment if anything looks loose or compromised.
Look without putting yourself at risk
From a safe position, look for visible slack, fraying, corrosion, loose fixings or impact damage. Do not lean over an edge or climb to reach a component.
Keep the installation clear
Avoid attaching extra loads or objects unless the installer has confirmed they are suitable. Use gentle cleaning practices appropriate to the material.
Ask when something changes
After severe weather, building work or a visible impact, contact a qualified installer to assess the installation. Do not assume that a visual check proves performance.
