Proper timing for deck service ensures longevity and maintains appearance. Seasonal considerations, weather patterns, and deck usage influence the best time for maintenance activities. Addressing deck needs at the right time can prevent damage and extend the lifespan of the structure.
Spring is ideal for deck cleaning and sealing after winter weather exposure. It prepares the deck for the upcoming outdoor season.
Mid-summer inspections help identify and repair any damage caused by sun and heat, ensuring safety and durability.
