Maywood Weather and Your Deck
Maywood gets rain, snow and summer sun. Wood decks and fences take the worst of it. Here's what we do about it.
Chicago freeze-thaw cycles
Water gets into wood, freezes and cracks it. Stain seals the wood so water beads off instead of soaking in.
Sun bleaching
UV rays turn gray wood into gray wood. Stain with UV blockers keeps the color from fading.
Mildew from rain and humidity
Wood stays damp and mildew grows. We wash it off and seal the wood so mildew can't get a foothold.

Deck Problems Maywood Homeowners Face vs. What You Get
Almost every deck call opens with one of these. Here's the cause on the left, and here's what your deck looks like when we pack up.
What you're dealing with
UV rays and rain turn wood gray. It looks old and dry. Stain won't look good unless the gray is washed off and brightened.
Wood dries out and splinters. Stain needs a smooth surface to soak in evenly.
Damp wood grows mildew. Cleaning it off isn't enough. The wood needs to be treated and sealed.
What you get
Washed, brightened and stained. The color comes back and the wood looks new.
Sanded and coated. The deck is smooth enough to walk on barefoot.
Sealed with two coats. Water beads up and runs off. Mildew can't grow.
