Prepare Your Outdoor Deck for Cooler Weather and Winter

Prepare Your Outdoor Deck for Cooler Weather and Winter
  • Maintenance free decking

As you work on prepping your home and yard for the coming winter months, make sure not to forget to winterize your outdoor deck. Depending on the outdoor decking material you have, you will want to make sure to follow certain steps to winterize your deck.

No matter what type of material your deck is made of, you’ll first want to make sure to thoroughly clean off the deck from any debris, dirt, spills or stains that have accumulated over the summer months. Typically cleaning with some warm, soapy water and then rinsing it off will take care of most buildup. Giving your deck a good cleaning will brighten your deck’s overall appearance and prevent it from degrading, staining, or getting mold over the winter.

If your deck is made from maintenance free decking material, cleaning your deck is all you need to do! But for wooden decks, you will want to make sure to check for cracked boards, loose nails, or anything else that requires additional deck repair. You’ll then want to strip down old stain or paint on the deck and apply a fresh coat, followed by a protective, water-repellent finish. A water-resistant coating is very important for a wooden deck, because moisture from ice, snow and sleet can cause cracking, splitting, and warping in unprotected boards.

If you’re tired of having to seal your deck every year or simply have been thinking about a deck replacement for a while, contact the builders at UglyDeck.com to find out about their maintenance free decking materials. UglyDeck.com provides a free deck quote and even has packages to help homeowners who want to build a deck themselves.

Testimonials

  • I just wanted to send a note and thank you for the job on our deck. You and your staff were very professional and courteous. Lance and his helper did a wonderful job of keeping the work site clean as they worked on our deck. Your patience in working with us over a design was appreciated and I think the final product looks great.

  • We love the deck and are 100% happy with it. We ate dinner out there last night – the best investment we could have made. I’ll pass your name around anytime we know of someone looking for a new deck/patio.

  • We absolutely LOVE the deck! I know it took a few attempts to get just the right size, shape, colors, etc., but it really looks classy! We’ve had tons of compliments from the neighbors and they LOVE the spiral staircase. That staircase goes just perfect with the railing. We’re extremely happy with the final outcome!
