This deck is just eight months old. It was built in November 2007. In a decks life, it’s as good as new. To ensure this deck remained better than new,(that’s right..I said better than new) I insisted this guy wait (a full winter and half a summer) for the wood to open up a bit before staining in early August 2008. Every newly constructed deck will present a little different situation with possibly a different maintenance approach, but this is good stuff right here amigo!
