Decks have become a very popular, low-cost way to add living space to a home and provide a great space to relax. However, like all wood surfaces they need to be properly maintained.

Water
Water is absorbed into the wood and washes out the natural wood resins and colour. Water also promotes algae, mold growth, and rotting.
Sunlight
UV rays bleach the wood fibres and breaks the cell structures.
Contamination
Food, dirt and pollution can also contaminate the wood, affecting the surface and finish.
