Check for Seasonal Damage

It is always a good idea to give your deck a once over at the start of each season. With the rapid weather changes we can see in the Denver area, you may find a few areas that need repaired. The typical reasons for deck damage include moisture damage and even wood rot. This can occur if too much water has the chance to settle into your deck. If your deck has not been stained or painted, it will be lacking a line of defense to protect against this 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 professional. By taking care of problems as soon as you spot them, you can prevent more costly repairs in the future.

Schedule a Painting or Staining Service With Denver Professionals

As previously mentioned, a coat of paint or stain is one way to protect your deck from the elements. If you have a new deck, or yours needs repainted, our painting contractors are here for you. We have painted and stained many decks in the local community and would love to help you transform your outdoor space. While paint may last longer than a stain, they are both great at protecting your beautiful deck.

Keep Your Deck Clean

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