My Deck Paint Is Peeling. What Can I do?

Joe Brindle - Friday, December 09, 2011

There is no easy solution or one-size-fits-all for this problem. Treated deck boards weather and crack. People have been misinformed that painting a deck will stop the weathering process and help it to hold up well for a long time. That’s just simply not the case.

If you apply a solid stain, paint, or other film-building product to your deck, it will almost always peel. This happens because water gets inside the cracked wood, and then releases, causing damage to the coating.

In over 20 years of business, we’ve never seen a deck that has not weathered and peeled, to some degree. >But there is a way for you to keep your deck from peeling, and it involves regular maintenance.

The proper way to seal a deck is to stick to sealer-type products, and re-apply the sealer every two to three years as needed. You will know when it’s time to reseal because water will no longer bead up on your deck. That’s a sign that your sealer has lost its effectiveness and needs to be redone.

Custom Coatings is an industry leader with more than two decades of experience in commercial, industrial, and residential painting and coatings projects. We know what types of deck sealer are the best and we take pride in the quality of our work.
