Does anybody think cutting them down would help?

Do they block out ALL sun on the deck? Are they so thick and surrounding that they block out all airflow?

Sounds like your deck isn't sealed, so water absorbs into the wood and stays there.

Yeah this one tree is right over the deck and it is pretty thick. And I did a thompsons water seal/stain when I first installed it about 4 years ago or so. I'm guessing that needs to be re-applied and is part of the problem along with the thick cover of the water oak right above it.
