Maybe it`s time to get that eyesore cleaned up and restored to its best condition again. Oakville and the surrounding are actually get a lot more sunshine hours over the year than many other parts of Canada. This constant direct sunlight can cause wear and tear on decks and fences. Add rain to the mix and now you get moisture and heat both taking it`s toll on your deck and fence. By ignoring and neglecting the maintenance your decks and fences can crack, split, warp, rot and fade. When properly maintained your decks and fences will look much better and last much longer.

Are you wondering about the condition of your decks surface? Not sure if it needs to be painted, stained or sealed. A quick simple water test can give you the answer. Just take a glass of water and pour on an area of your deck. As you watch you will see the water either sink in and get absorbed into the wood OR it may just bead and sit on top of the deck without absorbing in quickly.

If the water absorbs into the deck fairly quickly, that`means your sealant has worn off and your deck needs a new coating for protection. You can choose to paint the deck or stain the deck, which ever you prefer. Not sure which is best, no worries we can help you decide once we see the condition of your deck and or fence.
