Fall in the Ozarks is hard on a deck. Leaves pile up in the corners, hold moisture against the boards, and those slightly loose screws only get looser once the cold sets in. A few minutes now saves you a bigger repair later.
Sweep off the leaves and debris, check that the fasteners are snug, and look over the railings for anything wobbly. If you're thinking about a full upgrade, low-maintenance TimberTech decking takes a lot of that seasonal upkeep off your plate. Swing by our Springfield showroom to see it in person.
