ANN ARBOR, Mich. - Michimich -- As the weather warms up, homeowners are eager to spend more time outdoors—but is your deck ready for the season? While regular sweeping and surface cleaning are essential, there are often-overlooked maintenance steps that can make a big difference in preserving your deck's longevity.

Local Residential Contractors in Ann Arbor are sharing expert advice on simple yet effective ways to keep decks in top condition. By addressing these often-forgotten maintenance tasks, homeowners can prevent costly repairs and enjoy their outdoor space worry-free.

Deck Maintenance Tips You May Not Think About

Trim Back Trees
Overhanging branches can provide shade, but they also drop leaves, twigs, and sap onto your deck, leading to stains and potential damage. Additionally, branches that scrape against the deck surface can cause wear over time. Regular trimming will help keep your deck looking fresh and protected.
Keep Gutters and Drains Clear
If your deck is close to your home, clogged gutters can become a major issue. Blocked drains can cause rainwater to pool around the deck, leading to moisture damage and wood rot. Checking and cleaning gutters regularly ensures proper drainage and prevents costly repairs.
