If you’re hoping to take your deck up a notch, it’s important to first know what to look for before beginning any projects. While you may be able to accomplish some repairs on your own, more extensive ones often require the help of a professional team. As a Chicago deck repair company, we can get your deck ready for the warmer months ahead and turn it into a place you truly want to be.
What are the most common areas in need of deck maintenance?
Stairs
If your deck already has stairs, but they haven’t been touched in some time, they should be repaired or replaced. Even one weak stair can damage the entire structure and lead to serious injuries. A complete overhaul should always be taken care of by an experienced professional.
Ledger Board
An addition on a much smaller scale involves attaching a deck ledger board. A house with vinyl siding is susceptible to leaking water from a deck, so installing this board can protect your house and its siding from water damage.
Surface
Sometimes giving your deck new life is as simple as renting a pressure washer and buying some stain. Older decks begin looking worn due to weather exposure, but this problem can be fixed in one afternoon. With a pressure washer, you can eliminate tough stains and a fresh coat of stain makes your deck look like new!
Boards
Boards that are beginning to warp or split thanks to the weather should be treated before you make good use of your deck. Without a proper restoration coating, you can suffer from splinters and other injuries. Restore your deck before a new season of use arrives.
