    I did not know this existed...

    I dont have a metallic deck but my buddy does. I will have to give him a call and see. He isn't rich by no means so im sure it is well worth it. He cleans it maybe every two months. It looks brand new and he has had it for a couple months now. Good deck.

    Thinking about a new Deck

    What I would do is set up a meeting. Get him to come out to your house and do a estimate. This will give you some time to get to know the man on a personal basis and see what he knows and what he dont. If he dresses nice and presents himself well, then he could be a good pick.

    When Is Deck Maintenance Necessary?

    I have been maintaining my deck about every 6 months. I have yet to see splinters or even loose nails. I don't use the pressure washer because it has to much power. I use a normal hose and it gives it a nice shiny look.
