1 min read

Summer is hard on exterior wood.

Sun, humidity, rain, foot traffic, and outdoor furniture all contribute to wear.

September is a useful time to evaluate decks before colder weather.


Signs Your Deck Needs Maintenance

Look for:

  • Fading

  • Gray wood

  • Peeling

  • Splinters

  • Dark spots

  • Water absorption


Clean Before Applying Stain

Stain should not be applied over dirt or mildew.

Preparation may include:

  • Washing

  • Sanding

  • Repairs

  • Drying


Dry Wood Matters

Outdoor wood needs sufficient drying time after rain or washing.


Inspect More Than the Boards

Check:

  • Steps

  • Handrails

  • Posts

  • Balusters

  • Trim
