I had kept all my receipts and contacted Russell to let them know that I had a problem. Also had the little tags on the lumber which shows whose product it was from. Russel contacted their supplier and one of their reps came out, looked over the decking and counted out what was needed to replace it. Within a week and a half (the rep was on vacation for a few days), I had new lumber. FYI, they will only REPLACE lumber. They will not pay for any labor. All in all, they replaced abt 10-12% of my total deck and pier combined.
All my decking has been painted/stained with BEHR deck stain. I'm a cheap skate and if at all possible buy it as 'OOPS' paint from HD. I had bought the deck paint for $25 for 5 gallons of solid stain in Bham about 7 yrs ago. It was close enough to the color I wanted. My pier, I first purchased 5 gallons, $25, of semitransparent. It lasted 2yrs+ and I had found a better shade to the same color in solid stain for $35 for 5 gallons (HD had gone up on OOPS). Painted that 3yrs ago. The BEHR has held up quite well in my opinion.
