Deck sandings involve removing the top layer of wood to eliminate splinters, stains, and surface damage. This process restores the deck's appearance and prepares it for sealing or staining. Regular sanding can prolong the life of the deck by preventing rot and decay, especially when combined with protective finishes. The best time to perform deck sandings depends on local climate, weather patterns, and the deck's condition. Proper timing ensures the surface is dry and free of moisture, which is crucial for effective sanding and sealing.
