Spring Deck Safety Checklist
Deck Spring Checklist and Stain & Seal
Early spring is at he ideal time to spot early problems with your deck. Here are a few things to look for.
Water stains where the deck ties to the house. Ongoing water leakage will lead to wood decay, weakening the deck.
Splintering of the deck flooring is a sign that deck treatment is required.
Green mildew stains or black mold stains, signals a pressure wash with the proper chemicals is required, please I mean please do not use “Bleach”. Bleach actually makes mold spread and dries out the wood fibers. Bleach is also caustic to the environment.
Look for some holes, these could signal carpenter bees. Not taken care of these bees will eat your deck and may cause it to become structurally unsafe.
Lastly untreated or improperly treat pressure treated lumber can pose health problems, especially if you get a splinter in your foot.
A healthy deck needs to be maintained. When done so by a professional contractor you can be sure of great results and a lasting protective coating. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Peace
