Deck Staining, Sealing & Painting

Keep Your Wood Deck Looking Its Best

Your wood deck is exposed to harsh weather every single day. Sun, rain, and temperature changes all take their toll on the wood. Without proper protection, your deck will fade, crack, and eventually rot. The good news is that regular staining and sealing can keep your deck looking beautiful and extend its life by many years.

Why Staining and Sealing Matter

You might be wondering if staining and sealing are really necessary. The answer is yes, if you want your deck to last. Here is what proper finishing does for your wood deck:

• UV protection: Stains and sealers contain UV blockers that prevent the sun from breaking down the wood fibers and causing fading.
• Moisture barrier: Sealed wood resists water penetration, preventing rot, warping, and splitting.
• Mold and mildew resistance: Quality stains contain fungicides that prevent mold and mildew growth.
• Enhanced appearance: Stains bring out the natural beauty of the wood grain and give you control over the color.
• Easier cleaning: Sealed decks are easier to clean and resist staining from spills.
• Extended lifespan: A well-maintained deck can last twice as long as an untreated one.

Think of staining and sealing as an investment in your deck. The cost of periodic maintenance is much less than the cost of major repairs or premature replacement.

Our Deck Refinishing Process

Applying stain or sealer is not as simple as just brushing it on. Proper preparation is critical to getting a finish that looks good and lasts. We follow a proven process that ensures excellent results every time:

Cleaning and Preparation

We start by thoroughly cleaning your deck with professional deck cleaners. This removes dirt, mildew, and old finish. For weathered decks, we use a deck brightener to restore the wood's natural color. If needed, we sand rough spots and replace any damaged boards.

Choosing the Right Product

We help you select the best stain or sealer for your deck. Transparent stains show the most wood grain but offer less protection. Semi-transparent stains provide a good balance. Solid stains hide imperfections and offer maximum protection. We use only premium products that hold up in our local climate.

Professional Application

We apply stain and sealer with the right technique for your wood type. We work in manageable sections to avoid lap marks. We make sure to get even coverage, including hard-to-reach areas under railings and between boards. The result is a beautiful, uniform finish that protects your entire deck.

How Often Should You Refinish Your Deck?

The frequency of refinishing depends on several factors including the type of wood, the product used, sun exposure, and how much use your deck gets. As a general guideline, most wood decks should be cleaned and resealed every 2 to 3 years.

You can tell it is time to refinish when water no longer beads up on the surface, when the wood starts to look gray or faded, or when you notice the old stain peeling or wearing off in high-traffic areas. Do not wait until your deck is badly damaged. Preventive maintenance is much easier and less expensive than trying to restore a neglected deck.

We can set you up on a maintenance schedule so you never have to worry about when your deck needs attention. We will contact you when it is time for service, making deck care hassle-free. Need help with other aspects of your deck? We also offer complete deck repair services.
