Keep Your Deck Strong Through Central New York’s Seasons

In Syracuse and throughout Central New York, decks face extreme seasonal changes—from snowy, icy winters to humid summers. Without regular maintenance, the wood can deteriorate quickly, compromising both beauty and safety. At CertaPro Painters® of Syracuse – Central NY, we help homeowners protect their investment with proven painting and staining services built for local weather patterns.

How Central New York Weather Impacts Your Deck

Our region’s climate presents unique challenges for deck maintenance:

• Snow & Ice: Moisture from winter storms can seep into unsealed wood, causing rot and splitting when it freezes and thaws.

• Salt Exposure: In snowy months, salt used for deicing can splash onto decks and corrode fasteners or damage finishes.

• Humidity & Rain: Summer humidity fosters mold and mildew growth, especially on decks in shaded or poorly drained areas.

• Fall Debris: Leaves and organic matter can stain or trap moisture on your deck’s surface.

Key Signs Your Deck Needs Service

Is your deck ready for the next season? Watch for these warning signs:

• Wood turning gray or green

• Slippery surfaces from algae or mildew

• Loose railings or fasteners

• Peeling or flaking paint/stain

• Water soaking into the boards instead of beading

Regular inspection of your deck will help catch small issues before they become expensive repairs.
