Why is My Deck Peeling | Deck Maintenance Ideas 

let me know your #1 problems you have with your deck on a yearly basis?

It was a huge undertaking, but after building my 18' x 22' deck I realized my error and removed a few floorboards at a time to stain all sides then screwed them back on. Where the floorboard rest on the joists I placed a sheet, dry/ ice tar paper. Yes, a little overboard but living in the Midwest I've seen too many decks rot out only a few years later. Lightly rough up and re-apply stain over high-traffic areas every year and else every two years. 18years of harsh winters and Hot Days, I've only had to replace a couple boards that warped.

Decks are beautiful but do require proper maintenance. Thanks for the reminders of what to do

Yes, I applied my paint in direct sunlight. I will use you advice and start early morning and complete in the late evening. This time it around I’ll do better! Thank you.

This is solid tips and wish I would have known this about a year ago! Much appreciate you sharing this knowledge, so good!!!

Fantastic video dad ;)

Thanks for that great info...we sanded it down, but I think the high temps were an issue, so will do it during cooler temp shifts next time.

Great information

Nice video. Just one point, 'Wolmanied' is a brand name. It's one of many pressure treated lumber companies. Not all pressure treated lumber is made by them.

Decks are one of my favorite places to hang out. And keeping up on maintenance is what you need to do. Thanks for the info

This is great! One of my friends is doing deck maintenance at the moment. Will send this to him :)

This is extremely useful, I wish I had watched this when we got our deck installed. We did "season" our deck, but not just for a few months... we seasoned it for a whole year and just applied sealer this year. I learned a lot and appreciate you sharing your insights!

Thank you for all this information. Super helpful

Beautiful content sharing this video

Most deck problems I see are due to water pooling up, causing rot and bugs

Thanks for sharing. That’s exactly what I did . I put the stain on in the sun . That’s why it’s peeling . I wasted money again 😂

This is my question! It’s been 3 years though.

what deck stain do you recommend?

I'm definitely guilty of painting my deck on a sunny hot day😢

I had my painter put on one of those thick deck products several years ago. I DO NOT recommend it. It has failed miserably, and now I have to figure out how to get it all off.

So we let our new deck season for 4 full years---We decided to solid stain it. Hubby rented a power washer and deck cleaner, we waited a few days for it to dry. We order over 500 worth of Woodsman brand solid stain from a sale at our local hardware store of buy one get one. Our deck began peeling a month after application..We are heart broken,complained to the store and also complained to the manufacturer but nothing. Please help on what went wrong as it needs to be re-done and we dont want the same thing to happen. It was not humid either.😭 thank you

Oh this was great info! Thank you for sharing.

Once again, using YT background sound is a bad idea.

Yes I really hate the deck-over the thick stuff he talking about.

Talks too much
