What to do when weather damages your deck? Cumming GA

Sep 25, 2023

When Mother Nature takes a toll on your synthetic deck, it can be a frustrating experience, especially when you realize that most weather-related damage isn’t typically covered under your deck’s warranty, unless it specifically leads to fading or staining. But don’t despair; there are steps you can take to address and rectify weather-related damage to your beloved outdoor oasis.

First and foremost, assess the extent of the damage. Is it limited to minor wear and tear, or are there more severe issues like cracks, warping, or loose boards? Understanding the scope will help you determine the necessary actions.

Next, clean your deck thoroughly. Remove debris, leaves, and any dirt buildup that might exacerbate the damage. Use a gentle detergent and a soft-bristle brush to clean the affected areas, ensuring that you don’t inadvertently cause more harm during the cleaning process.

Depending on the damage’s severity, you may need to consider repairs or replacements. For minor issues, like scratches or fading, you can often use a composite deck cleaner and restorative products. For more significant problems, consult with a professional to evaluate the damage and determine if individual board replacements or a complete deck overhaul is necessary. Keep in mind that maintaining your deck with regular cleaning and protective coatings can help prevent future weather-related damage, ensuring your outdoor retreat remains beautiful and functional for years to come.

The attention to the details and oversight of the construction teams took extra burden off of us. I can't thank Outback Deck enough for driving the project to completion so smoothly.”

“The footings and bracing of the deck support are what impressed us most. BP did an excellent proposal, JR provide excellent follow through and CM kept the project on task. After watching the construction of our new deck, step by step, we could see the extra measures Outback Deck puts in their workmanship. If we ever have an earthquake, we will run to the deck for the safe place.”
