Deck Restoration In Connecticut
Over the years since pressure treated lumber has come onto the market, most every Connecticut home constructed, including log homes, has a deck of some type. Large or small, exotic woods or just the typical Southern Yellow Pine, decks have become very popular. From using them for family cook-outs, lounging or using them as a screened enclosure to keep out insects, decks are an asset that adds value to the Connecticut home. That is if they are maintained.
We have all seen decks that have turned gray, mildewed and have warped, split and splintering handrails and decking boards. Sometimes they have been neglected to the point that wood replacement is the only option. Oftentimes however, many of these decks can be saved, restored and used for many years to come.
The key to Connecticut deck restoration is twofold. First, the wood must be clean. This means removing any existing finishes, mildew, dirt, etc... Second, the wood must be dry. Wood acts just like a sponge. If it is wet, it will not absorb as much sealer. Therefore, either test the moisture content with an electronic meter or wait several days to be sure it is as dry as possible. The more stain that the wood can absorb, the more protection and longevity can be achieved.
Connecticut deck restoration means keeping the wood coated or conditioned with a quality sealer as it is imperative to the longevity of the deck. If maintained properly it can add value to the home and can be enjoyed for many years to come.
