Front, back or wrap-around porches adorn many homes. Some homeowners enjoy sitting outside on their porches and enjoying their neighborhood while others use the porch as a means to exit or enter the house. Protecting the porch decking is an important maintenance step. Plywood porch decking encounters water from rain, snow or sleet. Water damages wood causing it to swell, warp and twist. The porous nature of wood allows water to enter and the interior layers and cause rot. Rotted plywood porch decking is a hazard.
