What Causes Deck Rot and How to Spot It

Deck rot occurs when moisture penetrates the wood, causing it to weaken and decay over time. Common causes include poor drainage, prolonged wet conditions, and untreated wood surfaces.

Soft, spongy spots on deck boards
Discoloration or mold growth
Cracks and splinters developing

Ignoring these signs can lead to structural failures. Our assessment identifies problem areas early, ensuring timely repairs before safety is compromised.

When we decided to renovate our patio deck and railing this summer, it was an easy choice to pick Rain City Decks as our contractor based on the great reviews they had. Working with Nick was a great experience, especially with how prompt he was with communication, which I feel is crucial for any customer. There was complete transparency through every step of the project, and we are very satisfied with the end result as we now have an amazing deck to enjoy. Thank you Nick, Chase, and all the team at Rain City Decks!

I hired Raincity Decks to address a leak with my small patio and install new vinyl etc. They delivered on time and on budget and did a great job meeting the specs of their detailed quote. Nick is very responsive and a good communicator throughout . There were no surprises and Nick is very approachable , as was his crew. Abe and Marv were very polite and worked steady the whole week. The price was competitive and Nicks experience and solid business / professional approach also made the difference . I’d certainly recommend them.

FAQs

How to keep your deck from rotting?

Regular cleaning, sealing, and prompt repairs prevent moisture buildup. Ensuring proper drainage and ventilation under the deck also keeps wood dry and rot-free.

Where do deck boards often rot first?

Deck boards near the ledger board and areas where water pools, such as around posts or poor drainage spots, are the most common rot locations.

What signs indicate my deck needs a moisture assessment?

Look for soft spots, discoloration, mold, loose boards, or a musty smell, especially after heavy rains or in shaded areas.

How often should I have my deck inspected?

At least once a year is recommended, especially before and after the rainy season in Vancouver, to catch early signs of damage.

Can pressure-treated wood still rot?

Yes, while it resists rot better than untreated wood, it can still deteriorate over time if exposed to moisture and poor ventilation.

Is it safe to use a rotting deck?

No, walking on a rotted deck can be dangerous. Weak spots may collapse unexpectedly, posing a risk of injury.
