A backyard deck is a component of the home that is a real asset that one can hardly do without after having one for a while. The uses a person can get from them far out way the cost or the regular scheduled work required to maintain them.
We all know how much fun we can have on a deck, but a lot of people don't realize that it doesn't end there. The added value in equity you get from a deck far out ways the funds needed to build it, but as a homeowner that has a deck I can tell you the value is much greater than a monetary one. The added space that you can utilize for a gathering spot as well as entertain is unbeatable.
Keep in mind that any space that is open to the elements will need regular care or it will be gone before you know it. Don't let that scare you because deck maintenance is not a really big ordeal if you do it on a regular basis.
You also need to know that not all decking material will require the same amount of attention. Wooden decks for example will need more love than a deck made of a composite material. Composite decks are not affected by the damaging rays of the sun; therefore they will not crack or turn gray due to it. So in turn your maintenance is much lower compared to wood.
But as it goes they are still in need of a regular cleaning that will keep them looking sharp. Forgetting to clean a composite deck for a couple of years will not harm it, but it does look a lot better when you do. The main issue that I've seen with these types of decks is the leaves and other organic matter that sticks in between the boards starts to grow mould.
The easiest way to dispose of it is to use a narrow metal object to work it lose and wash it free with a regular garden hose. Or you can rent a power washer and just blast it out just as easily. They work really great on composite decks unlike wood decks that can get damaged by the high pressure.
Just remember that the labour involved in a well-maintained deck can save you a lot of money in the long run and give you space to enjoy for a lifetime.
