Our Deck Staining & Refinishing Process
We follow a reliable, multi-step approach to ensure a durable, long-lasting finish:
Inspection & Assessment
We examine the wood condition, structural integrity, and previous coatings to design a tailored plan.Cleaning & Preparation
Deep-cleaning with wood-safe detergents or soft pressure washing removes dirt, mildew, and old finish. Loose boards or fasteners are repaired or replaced.Sanding & Surface Smoothing
Light sanding evens out the surface, removing residual coatings, raised grain, or imperfections.Stain Application
We apply premium penetrating stains / sealers (transparent, semi-transparent, or solid, depending on preference) with brushes, rollers, or sprayers to ensure full coverage.Second Coat / Topcoat / Sealant (if needed)
Where recommended, a second coat or clear topcoat is added for extra protection.Curing & Final Inspection
We allow proper drying time, then perform a final walk-through, ensuring every board is coated and all mess is cleaned up.
Types of Deck Finishes We Provide
Transparent / Water-Based Stains — Light protection while preserving natural wood look
Semi-Transparent Stains — Balanced pigment and protection
Solid / Opaque Stains — Strong color with superior UV protection
