Encore Surfacing and Deck Estimates
Encore Surfacing just finished cleaning and prepping a brand new deck. The wood used was the exotic hardwoods that must be cleaned carefully and sealed as soon as possible. We used specialized cleaners, scrub brush and water from the faucet. High water pressure is never needed on new wood but it must be completely rinsed.
A bid was also given to repair an older deck, pressure wash and seal. This deck has an unfortunate common problem. It was built around three Oak trees. The space for the trunk was too small for normal growth and the trees were being damaged at the base and about 8 feet up by the shade structure. Luckily, the trees have shown no obvious signs of stress and should be fine after the repairs are completed. Also, the seating area and backrest will have to be sanded otherwise splinters will be found in an uncomfortable area of the body.
Deck Estimates
Summer times brings time out on your beautiful deck! Unfortunately, when you spend time outside you see that it needs to be renewed or resealed.
Encore Surfacing has just completed two estimates for deck renewal. The first was a basic estimate to clean and seal and the second was very complex. The second deck had been painted red and then ignored for over 7 years. The result is most of the paint is long gone and a lot of the wood will have to be replaced. All the deck nails have popped up and the hand rail will be replaced. Maybe 10% of the deck boards will have to be replaced but this final judgment won’t be made until after cleaning and a careful inspection can be made. Sanding may be required due to all the splinters. Final actions to follow soon.
