There are many myths out there about how best to take care of your exterior wood. Wood Re New of Lake Country sets the records straight!
Myth: a deck, dock or fence built from treated lumber is protected from weather elements.
Fact: Treated lumber is formulated to slow down wood rot and insect infestation but does not offer any protection from weather related damage. Wood Re New of Lake Country protects your wood from weather related damage such as excessive cracking, splintering and graying.
Myth: In order for the wood to be protected it needs to have a solid color paint or stain.
Fact: Color paints and stains fall into the "film forming" definition of protectants. In order for these to work properly you need to cover ALL six sides of the wood. If you don't get full coverage, pealing and cracking will happen within 6 to 12 months. You will also need to strip each board prior to reapplication. Wood Re New of Lake Country uses a penetrating protectant that works from the inside out while allowing easy reapplication in the future.
Myth: Bleach is a good cleaning product for wood.
Fact: Bleach not only is almost impossible to rinse out, but it also damages the wood further and can kill your plants around your deck, dock, fence or house. Wood Re New of Lake Country uses an environmentally friendly cleaner specifically designed for exterior wood that will not harm your kids, animals or your plants!
