wooden decks

Wooden decks are the epitome of backyard luxury. From family barbecues to lazy Sunday afternoon reads, they serve as an extended living space for many households. However, winter, with its snow, ice, and freezing temperatures, can be harsh on these wooden beauties. Without proper care, the charm and lifespan of your wooden deck can significantly diminish. So, how does one protect their deck, especially during the icy grip of winter? Enter Safe Paw, a chemical and toxin-free ice melt that’s both effective and kind to your wooden structures.

The Vulnerabilities Of Wooden Decks In Winter

To appreciate the importance of protection, it’s essential to understand the challenges winter poses for wooden decks.

  • Moisture Damage: Snow and ice introduce moisture to the wood, which can then freeze and expand. This process can cause the wood to crack or warp.
  • Mold and Mildew: Left unchecked, the dampness from melted snow can become a breeding ground for mold and mildew.
  • Slip Hazards: Ice-covered wooden decks are a safety hazard, especially when the surface becomes slippery.

The Traditional Approach: Why It’s Not Always The Best

While many homeowners turn to rock salt or traditional ice melts to combat icy decks, these can introduce a slew of problems:

  • Wood Damage: Salt can increase the wood’s moisture content, which can then freeze, causing the wood to split.
  • Metal Corrosion: Many decks have metal fixtures, which salt can corrode.

Discoloration: Traditional ice melts can leave a powdery residue, leading to staining

Extending The Care: Considering Trex Steps

Much like wooden decks, Trex steps — a composite of wood fibers and plastic — are an elegant addition to homes. While they boast resistance to warping and rotting, the icy conditions of winter can render them slippery and hazardous. Safe Paw’s gentle formula ensures that your Trex steps remain safe to tread on, without causing any material damage.

Easy Application For Long-Lasting Protection

Using Safe Paw on your wooden deck is a straightforward process. Before the snow sets in:

  • Sweep your deck to remove any debris.
  • Evenly spread Safe Paw across the surface.
  • Let Safe Paw work its magic! As snow falls, you’ll notice it doesn’t stick or form a layer of ice as it typically would.

For ongoing snowfall or subsequent icy days, simply reapply as necessary to maintain a safe, ice-free deck.
