What happened

Plycem is recalling Allura™ fiber cement decking and fascia because the materials can deteriorate and crack, causing the deck surface to break. This creates a fall hazard that can result in serious injuries. The recalled decking was sold in 12-foot lengths, measuring 6 inches wide and 1 inch thick, in two application styles: hidden fastener and direct screw. The recalled fascia was for vertical applications only, sold in 12-foot lengths, 8 or 12 inches wide, and 7/16 inches thick. Both products came in natural wood color with wood grain texture and have no identifying labels or marks.

Consumers who have the recalled decking should immediately stop using their decks and contact Plycem to schedule a free repair. Plycem is contacting all known purchasers directly.
