Pros’ Bill and Kevin Burnett give their advice on deck refinishing on Yahoo Real Estate. They answer a reader’s question about the best way to prepare a deck for sealing.
They recommend:
- Pressure washing the deck in place of sanding it
- Clean and treat your deck with a preservative every 1 to 2 years
- Remove any mildew by pressure washing thoroughly
- Use a pressure washer with at lease 1,500 psi
- Use the fan setting on the nozzle and keep it moving to prevent a ripple effect
- Use a chemical deck cleaner for really bad decks
- Apply your sealer or stain
