Posted on May 27, 2021

Now that summer is almost here, it’s time to think about preparing your deck for the warmer months. Here at CertaPro Painters®️ of Denton, our team values providing you with the latest information you need to know in order to protect your outdoor entertainment surfaces. Summer is an excellent time to spend more time outdoors and enjoy your deck. It is also the perfect time for a professional deck painting or staining service. Below are a few tips from our experienced team to help you protect your deck this summer.

Keep an Eye Out for Seasonal Damage

patioIt is always a good idea to make sure your deck is still in great shape at the start of each season. With the frequent weather changes we can see in the Denton area, you may find a few areas that need repaired or serviced. The most common reason for deck damage is excess moisture that can cause wood rot. However, if your deck has been treated with a paint or stain, it will be less likely to see this particular type of damage.

Once you notice any repairs that need to be made, even if it is as simple as peeling paint, you should consult with a local painting contractor. By taking care of problems as soon as you find them, you can prevent more costly repairs from impacting your home in the future.

Schedule a Painting or Staining Service With Denton Professionals

As previously mentioned, a coat of paint or stain is the best way to protect your deck from the elements. If you have a new deck, or your deck needs repainted, our painting contractors are always here to help. We have painted and stained many decks in the local service area, and we would love to help you transform any of your outdoor spaces in the Denton service area.

Clean Your Deck Regularly

It is vital to the structure of your deck that you keep its surface clean. This means sweeping away any debris after a storm, and making sure there is no ponding occurring along the surface. If your deck has hard to remove buildup, mold, and other stains, we recommend our professional power washing services. Our painting contractors can service the following surfaces: Wood, brick, concrete, aluminum, and asphalt.
