In the U.S. we celebrate Memorial Day and in Canada we celebrate Victoria Day. Both of these May holidays are the unofficial "start" of summer in North America and with that we spend more time out on our decks. Family get togethers, graduation parties and summer vacations are just a few examples of where we might be "on the deck."
This is a great time to market your business and remind homeowners to "Check Your Deck®" to ensure its safety. How do we do this?

Typical warranties only cover replacing the damaged wood, leaving you holding the bill for the rest of the repair.
The Cox Premium Warranty plan protects you against those costs; labor and fasteners, which can often be much more than the wood itself.

A major choice, with residual impact, is whether we decide to have a positive outlook or a negative demeanor. Okay, I’m sure you can guess where I’m going with this.
