Questions about this job

Can you match my existing deck boards?

We try to match the timber and size. Older or weathered boards may look different until the deck is oiled or weathers in.

How often should a deck be oiled?

It depends on sun exposure and use. Many decks benefit from re-oiling every year or two.
