Re: Teak Deck Problems

I can think of a few things to be done to PO's (previous owners) who abuse decks that way. "Drawn and quartered and buried at midnight at a crossroads" figures prominently in those suggestions. Moving on... The decks have a surprising amount of meat to them. Your best bet is to get professional advice on re-setting the screws and appying bungs. I know some people have pulled off their decks but that strikes me as rather drastic.
