It doesn&#8217;t have to get as in-depth as sealing and staining your deck yearly. Especially if you have a composite deck, sealing\/staining a deck isn&#8217;t needed as often as with a wooden deck. With a composite deck you can skip some steps. However, you will want to at least inspect your composite deck yearly for any repair work and clean it from the build-up of dirt and debris<\/span><span data-contrast=\"none\">,&#8221; says
