Deck Restoration, Staining and Sealing

Here are some tell tale signs that your deck is in need of restoration.  Have you noticed flaking, peeling or chipping?  If that’s the case, your deck could stand to be re-stained.  Is the wood discolored or faded?  An unattractive deck provides less enjoyment.  Enlist us to get your deck back to barbecue hosting status –stat!  If your deck is overrun with termites, don’t wait until it’s falling apart to do something about it.  We can replace the affected areas and get rid of the termites with a special treatment.  Unsightly mold and algae can be power washed away.  The final result is a deck worthy of backyard parties and intimate gatherings.    

The process required to restore your deck is extensive.  The first step involves a thorough power washing.  Once it’s cleaned, we check for rot and insect infestations.  Next, we rectify any nail pops, as well as replace warped bannisters and planks.  We sand out splinters and drive in loose screws.  Our team of professionals strip the existing paint or stain surface.  Afterwards, they wash the surface with detergent and rinse.  Holes and cracks are filled with an acrylic application.  A thick resurfacing material is applied with a roller.  The entire process takes 3 to 5 hours.  We recommend that you wait up to 5 days before replacing the furniture.    

Contact us at least 2 weeks before you host your next backyard party.  If you promised your cousin that you’d host her baby shower at your place, you’ll want a lead time of at least 1 week before the event date.  Although the actual restoration process takes a few hours, it’s the drying time that we must prepare for.  Because the resurfacing material is extremely thick, it requires up to 5 days to completely cure.  It is designed to withstand rain, cold and thaw cycles, snow and hail.  Once your deck is restored, it will be in excellent condition for another 5 years.
