Summer is here and fall is just around the corner—both prime deck seasons in Northeast Ohio. But don’t take that outdoor living space for granted. Your deck needs care and attention just as much as your indoor spaces, and maybe even more.

“Your deck takes a beating all year,” says Joe Jacobs, owner of Chagrin Home Improvements. “Obviously, being exposed to the elements leaves the deck vulnerable to moisture and mold along with peeling, cracking and everyday wear and tear. Keeping up with professional cleaning and staining will extend the life of your deck, save you money down the road and keep your outdoor living space ready for friends and family whenever you are.”

Now more than ever, we’re understanding the real value of our own homes as places of refuge, relaxation and entertainment. This past year we’ve focused on home repairs, maintenance and upgrades like never before. Deck repair, cleaning and staining by Chagrin Home Improvements is one of those home maintenance projects that, for a relatively small investment, provides a big return in terms of your personal enjoyment and adding value to your home.

The deck cleaning and staining schedule at Chagrin Home Improvements is filling fast, but there’s still time to get the job done right and protect it for winter.

“I’ve added an additional truck and crew to help with all of the requests for deck jobs,” says Joe. “This is our seventh year in business, and we have grown exponentially each year. The word is out about Chagrin Home Improvements, and we couldn’t be more proud and excited about that. We’ve worked very hard to earn our reputation as a dependable, superior business in everything we do. So, when we saw that we needed to add a truck and crew members in order to serve our customers in a timely manner, that’s what we did.”

As a local business, Joe and his team take great pride in this community and in the job they do for their clients.

“Reputation is everything in this business and we take that very seriously,” says Joe. “My employees are some of my lifelong friends and family members. I don’t use subcontractors or hire people just for the summer. Some companies do deck work in addition to sealcoating, windows and other things. You’re never sure who is showing up at your home. When you hire us, you’re getting true professionals, trained to do the job with expertise and efficiency.”

Keeping up with professional cleaning and staining will extend the life of your deck.

Joe says that late summer, early fall is a great time to get the deck cleaned and stained and ensure it’s ready to withstand the inevitable harsh winter conditions to come. We can have great deck weather into November in Northeast Ohio. A professional, thorough cleaning process will protect it from rotting, warping and other issues that will not only cost you in the future, but also keep your family from enjoying the deck this fall.

You don’t even need to be home for the assessment or the job itself. Just give Joe a call or contact him through email, they’ll come look at your deck, take photos and measurements and will get back to you with a written quote.

“Give me a call and get on the schedule,” says Joe. “We’ll get the job done right so you can enjoy your deck now and not have to worry about it in the future.”
