Frequently Asked Questions

Why is my wood deck turning gray or green? 
Exposure to sun and moisture causes wood to lose its natural oils, leading to a gray appearance. Green patches indicate mold, mildew, or algae buildup. 

Can pressure washing damage my deck? 
Yes. Traditional pressure washing can gouge or splinter the wood. Soft washing safely lifts grime without harming the surface. 

How often should I clean and stain my deck? 
Most decks benefit from cleaning and staining every 2–3 years, depending on exposure to elements and foot traffic. 

What kind of stain should I choose for my deck? 
We help you select the right stain—transparent, semi-transparent, or solid—based on your wood type, desired look, and durability needs.
