That’s what we thought when we looked at ours this spring. It is one of the last remaining areas of our house that needed an upgrade! It was finally time to make our outdoor living space just as beautiful as our indoor space now that the summer weather is here.

Over the past few years, the harsh weather in our area has taken a toll on our deck. We had used a pressure washer to clean off any mold and mildew that had taken up…
