3 Tips for Protecting Decks & Patios
Posted on July 31, 2021
With the summer season in full swing, it’s important that you know how to keep your deck safe during the new season. Here at CertaPro Painters® of North Vancouver, we value providing you with professional tips that will keep your local home looking its best. Continue reading below for our routine deck maintenance recommendations.
Check for Seasonal Damage
At the beginning of each season, it is important to check out how your deck is currently holding up. With the frequent weather changes we can see in the North Vancouver community, you may find a few areas that have become weathered over time. The most common reason for deck damage is excess moisture that can cause wood rot, or even mold damage. When you have your outdoor surfaces treated with a paint or stain you can prevent this type of damage from occurring in the first place.
Invest in a Painting or Staining Service
A fresh coat of paint or stain is the best way to protect your deck or patio. If you have a new deck, or your deck needs repainted, our painting contractors are always here for you. 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 North Vancouver community.
Keep Outdoor Surfaces Clean
It is imperative to the structure of your deck that you keep its surface clean. This means sweeping away any debris after a summer storm, and making sure there is no ponding occurring along the surface after a heavy rain. If your deck has hard to remove buildup, mold, and other stains, we recommend one of our professional power washing services. Our painting contractors can service the following surfaces: Wood, brick, concrete, aluminum, and asphalt.
These are just a few of the ways to keep your deck in great shape this summer season in North Vancouver. Fill out our online form to request a free estimate on your next deck service today. We look forward to hearing from you!
