by Cyber Smart | 2019 Home & Landscape Expo
The 2019 Home and Landscape Expo held at the Cal Expo fairgrounds in Sacramento was greeted with unseasonably warm weather and brought out thousands of visitors.
Valley Redwood has been a presence at the show for more than 20 years. We are proud to feature some of our dramatic redwood decking and patio structures as well as many of our most popular paver and stone products to homeowners looking to add beauty, style, and function to their backyard landscape projects.
We spend almost an entire week setting up our displays in order to showcase our materials and workmanship. To keep things exciting, we offer our displays for homeowners to purchase, and this year was no exception. This benefits the homeowner by seeing the completed project ahead of time as well as getting a nice cost incentive. Valley Redwood can then build new structures at our home location, on display for the entire year and start the process all over again for the 2020 show. It’s great to see the excitement in the homeowners after deciding on their new addition.
We always look forward to answering questions from visitors at the show and being able to help them make their home improvement visions come to life. We look forward to this show every year as it is the largest home and landscape show in the state. If you visited this year’s show and have any questions, please give us a call or come by our store.
We look forward to seeing you at our location and of course at the 2020 Home and Landscape Expo.

When you have decided that it is time to rebuild your deck and have made the smart choice to use redwood, you have to decide to simply redo the existing design or change it up.
Recently a local client was in that exact position. Their deck was very old and rotting. It was at the same level as the house with and old fashioned louvered plastic roof and railings all around. Initially they were going to duplicate the style minus the plastic roof. Their contractor suggested re-thinking their plans and consider lowering the deck to the level of the back yard thus eliminating the need for railings and choosing to leave the space open without a roof. This plan would also expand the entire look of the back yard and make it seem much larger.
Lowering the deck required the ledger board be moved to the new level and steps from the house be built leading to the deck surface. Once they decided that was the right move for them, the project was on. The demo was completed and the materials list was completed. Pressure treated substructure and beautiful redwood decking was ordered. The client also opted for having hidden screws for the decking.
Once completed, the homeowners we so excited about their new deck and how much it opened up the entire backyard. They could now simply step off the deck to the yard and pathways from any point on the deck. They claimed “our backyard looks way bigger”.
Valley Redwood has the right materials, expertise, and design knowledge to assist you with your redwood deck project. Give us a call or stop by and let us partner with you from the design phase to completion. We look forward to helping you make the vision you have for your deck come to life.

by Valley Redwood | deck maintenance
Now that you have spent time, energy, and money on your new redwood deck , the next step to consider is maintenance. Proper care and maintenance can extend the life of your deck and help keep its natural beauty. Several factors can contribute to the wood looking dull, grey, and weathered. Years of sun, rain, and extreme temperatures can make your deck look older than it is. Simple measures can alleviate the affects of these factors.
The first thing you should consider is a proper stain/sealer when the deck is new. This will give the deck the best start it can have and will make the maintenance in the future even easier. There are many sealer and stains available, so make sure you select one that is formulated for redwood. Many tints are available depending on personnel choice and the desired look. Because it is an open-celled structure and it contains little or no pitch or resins, redwood accepts and holds a variety of finishes from clear stain to solid color paints. To achieve a lasting redwood color, use a water-repellent, oil-based deck stain.
When it comes time to clean your deck, a few simple steps should be taken to assure long lasting beauty. Depending on how long it has been since your deck was cleaned, you may have to apply a cleaner, scrub with a stiff brush, and rinse with water, or you can lightly clean with a pressure washer. If you are pressure washing, be cautious and use a wide fan spray and not a concentrated jet spray as this can carve grooves in your deck. Consider lightly sanding the railings before sealing to keep a nice smooth surface your hands will thank you for.
After you have thoroughly cleaned your redwood, make sure it is dry. Sometimes it might take a few days to completely dry. Once dry, you are ready for sealer. Sealers can be applied with a brush, roller, or spray. You will have better coverage with a brush or roller as some of the spray will simply get lost in the air.
Before you start your cleaning and sealing process, give us a call and we can recommend which method will be the best for your deck and we will help you choose the right stain or sealer. Done right, you will only have to do this every 2 or 3 years. Valley Redwood is happy to help you keep all your redwood decks, gazebos, and furniture looking great for many years.
