How do I prepare my deck for summer use?
Inspect your deck for loose boards, popped nails, and signs of rot or insect damage. Clean the surface with a deck cleaner or mild detergent and a stiff brush. Apply a fresh coat of sealer or stain if the wood looks dry or faded. Tighten any loose railings and replace damaged boards before the busy summer season begins.
Why It Matters
Regular deck maintenance extends its life by years and ensures it is safe for family gatherings and summer entertaining.
