ok, just checked with my hubby, re: the tounge and groove. He explained to me why the need for
tongue and groove, and why the importance of keeping it sealed. Our daughter has a wrap around
porch on her Victorian home. The part in front of the front door (as well as the two side steps are
open to access the steps. The rest of the wood slats end into the railings. I imagine that's the way yours is, that
the end wood takes a beaten because it is exposed to the elements. I imagine applying a yearly sealer on
the exposed edge of the wood in front of the steps is essential.
