How do you clean a deck and why would you do that?
Commercially available conditioners, cleaners, and brighteners can be applied with a pump sprayer and will help restore the original color of the wood. Oxylic acid added to the spray mixtures neutralize the tannin and helps remove the gray and black colors.
I find that spraying at 3200 PSI removes most all of the dirt and tannin, and restores the natural beauty of the wood. Allowing the wood to dry for a full day to two days is recommended prior to re-coating with the stain of your choice.
How do you restore a deck?
I spray 3 boards at a time over the entire length as a helper runs a 7″ pad over the just stained area providing a perfectly even coating of stain on the wood. This technique works perfectly as it prevents overlaps, drips, and streaks.
Dry and weathered boards can be more of a challenge for many people, but I have perfected a technique which fills the cracks with material and makes the entire deck look new again.
Sanding may be required if it has been a long time since your deck’s last coat of stain. Sanding is a very labor intensive process. Edges and the areas near objects such as railings need to be sanded by hand, and it takes many hours of manpower to properly sand the deck for stain preparation. Railings are nearly impossible to sand properly due to the lack of space to work in. Sanding works well in cases where the same stain color will be used.
My deck is in pretty bad shape. How can I get it replaced?
Composite decking comes in different shapes and colors. The most outstanding quality is the 20-25 year durability of the product. Composite decking is more expensive than redwood and cedar in the short term, but over the course of its life it pays for itself in reduced maintenance costs as its beauty continually shines through.
Replacing the wood structure such as the joists is a serious consideration when replacing a deck. Sometimes the joists may be doubled up to add strength and resiliency but I do recommend replacing the structure as well if all boards are being replaced. This will guarantee a deck that will last for many years.
Railing systems play a key component in how your composite deck will look, and there are many different systems to choose from. If only deck boards are being replaced, the old railing system may stay in place if it is good condition. I can just stain the old railing to either match or contrast the color of the deck which could save you money on replacement.
