Deck Maintenance Tips for the Fall

Before the winter weather hits, you should make sure that you take preventive measures to keep your deck in good condition. During the year you should always be checking your deck for any damages or areas that need to be repaired. Here are a few tips to help you prepare your deck for the winter!

  • Waterproofing: If you have a wood deck, it’s important that it be waterproofed and a large aspect of maintaining a wooden deck is doing the frequent sealing.
  • Washing: A vinyl or composite deck won’t need any new coats on it but it will need to be washed down with a hose once a year.
  • Sweeping: During the fall, you should still take the time to sweep off fallen leaves, acorns, twigs, and pine needles. This debris can cause discoloration and mold growth on your deck.
  • Removing: Before the first snow falls, make sure that all planters, chairs, and tables occasionally are removed from your deck to avoid discoloring.
  • Decorations: During the fall you should not place any pumpkins directly onto your deck’s surface, even though pumpkin is a major decoration for the season. The moisture from the pumpkin can help produce mold and lead to rotting wood.

How to Prepare your Roof for Winter

Since we are in the state of Massachusetts, we are guaranteed to get snow at some point during the winter and it’s important to make sure our roofs are in the best shape. If you are already aware of any existing leaks coming from your roof or any gutter damage, you should get it repaired immediately. Here are a few signs to look out for to make sure your roof is prepared for the winter.

  • If your notice any missing tiles or damaged shingles on your roof, it’s best to take care of the problem right away. When your roof has loose or missing parts it most likely will not be able to endure the bad winter weather. When this type of damage is not taken care of it can be more expensive for repairs and possibly dangerous.
  • Make sure you clear your gutters of any debris or leaves that have gathered up throughout the months. When you remove the debris from your gutters it can help reduce ice dams when the snow hits. There can be significant damage to your roof because of the extra weight that’s caused by ice dams.
  • Besides gutters, you should also check that all your drains and downspouts are clear of any debris.
  • Another way to prevent the formation of ice dams is ensuring that your attic is properly insulated. If you have an old flat roof that has little insulation, your roof and ceiling will be much colder because there is little in between.

During the winter, it’s important to take into consideration things like snow accumulation, ice dams and high winds because they can cause serious damage to your home. If you’re in need of a roof, please contact us for a free estimate at 781-899-6353 or fill out our contact form online!
