With Memorial Day just around the corner, there's one important chore on your list that you don't want to forget. Before you put the cushions on your patio furniture and get your grill fired up, make sure you take the time to give your deck a proper cleaning. It no only keeps your deck looking its best, but will also keep you safe from dangerous, slippery slime, help your deck to last longer and reduce maintenance over the long haul.
Note: This is a job for a sunny day. Make sure there's no rain predicted because it can take several hours to dry completely.
- Clear The Decks - Make sure you can easily access the entire deck without damaging your outdoor furniture, grill or other accessories. If possible, move everything off of the deck to the yard. If you can't do that, try stacking the furniture to have as little as possible standing on the deck.
The snow might not yet be melted where you are, but spring is most definitely in the air. Winter's cabin fever is letting up as surely as the days are getting longer. Time to get your backyard ready for outdoor living -- barbecues, patio parties -- even nightly dining on the deck. After a chilly season of neglect, you deck or patio can benefit from a makeover.
