Frequently Asked Questions

How soon can I use my new pressure treated deck?

You can use your deck immediately after installation, but wait 3-6 months before applying stain to allow the lumber to properly weather and dry.

What’s the difference between ground contact and above ground treated lumber?

Ground contact lumber has higher chemical retention for posts and structural elements touching or near the ground. Above ground lumber is suitable for decking boards and railings.

Can pressure treated lumber be stained or painted?

Yes, after proper weathering (3-6 months), pressure treated lumber accepts stain beautifully. We recommend semi-transparent stains for best results.

How long will my pressure treated deck last in Tennessee?

With proper maintenance, expect 15-20 years of service life. Premium grades and excellent maintenance can extend this to 25+ years.
