Interesting to note that some of the longest lived buildings in the country have exteriors that have never been painted. I had a craftsman tell me that he feels the problem with building anything now days is the wood contains moisture and when it gets painted the outside is sealed so the wood can’t “breath”. When put together it makes some sense. Bottom line, I pressure wash my dock about every 8 - 10 years or so but, I don’t treat it.
