        "text": "Maintaining your deck trim involves regular cleaning, inspection, and proper sealing or staining. Clean your deck trim annually to remove dirt, mildew, and debris. Inspect for cracks, loose fasteners, or signs of rot, especially after harsh weather. Applying a high-quality sealant or stain every few years, depending on the material, helps protect against moisture and UV damage. Ensuring good drainage around your deck also prevents water accumulation that can damage trim over time.",
