A treated wood deck is an average of $8 to $15,000 investment for a homeowner depending on size and structure. Treated wood needs 45 days to weather prior to being finished. Deck stains and paint must be applied with temps above 55 degrees for 3 to 5 days for best coverage and to prevent peeling or blistering.

Now is the time to plan the next steps for your wood deck or porch maintenance program. With the heat of summer, you want to hold off on staining/painting your deck until the fall when the temperature moderates. The warmer it is the more likely the pores in the wood are fully expanded and more likely to drink in the finish requiring you to purchase and apply 1.5 to 2 times more than needed for coverage in milder temperatures.

NOW is the time to repair or replace any damaged wood in the deck. New treated wood requires 45 to 60 days to weather before a finish can be applied. Without allowing the wood to weather the new finish will bubble up over the surface and look horrible ruining your investment of product and labor providing no protection from cold and hot weather.

A good maintenance plan will help extend the life, look, and usability of one of your biggest investments for your home. Call if you need help planning or implementing the tasks required. The last thing you want is a deck that has to be rebuilt or replaced adding to your annual home expenses.
