If you have treated it with a sealant, then you should be okay. Bae If not, then the moisture from the snow can rot the wood. It would be very Registered User beneficial for you to shovel the deck, either way, to help keep not only Joined: Thursday, 3rd of June 2010, 16:05:00 the weight off, but the moisture as well.

If you or who ever built the deck has varnished the deck and pup weather treated the deck, it will be just fine. I lived in Finland for Registered User several years and the house I lived in had a wonderful deck, so dont worry Joined: Thursday, 29th of April 2010, 21:54:36 the wood will be fine it it was prepared.

If you have water seal on it, there should not be any damage. Bunni But you still need to sweep the snow as soon a possible so there won't be Registered User any damage to the hardware. (screws, nails, etc.) Joined: Thursday, 22nd of April 2010, 12:02:52 Posts: 253 Viewed 7960 times

If the wood is not treated, eventually it will. When the snow betty boo melts into water, it will be obsorbed in the wood. After awhile, the wood Registered User will rot. Joined: Wednesday, 12th of May 2010, 17:06:38 Treat the wood with a protectant like Behr Posts: 703 Viewed 10982 times

did you protect the deck with something like thompsons water Honey Bear seal, or is it weather treated wood? If so then you are likely OK. Registered User Joined: Saturday, 12th of June 2010, 05:31:53 Posts: 513 Viewed 16234 times
