In our climate, where moisture is abundant and sunlight scarce, dry rot poses a serious threat to wooden structures. Safeguarding your wood is paramount, and among the most effective treatments are penetrating oil sealers. Renowned for their ability to deeply penetrate and protect wood from the elements, these sealers stand as guardians against decay and deterioration. Trust in our expertise to preserve and fortify your wood, ensuring lasting beauty and resilience against nature’s challenges.
Witness the transformation! Behold our gallery showcasing stunning before-and-after images of our deck restoration projects. We take pride in our craft, expertly restoring weathered wood to its former glory. Let us breathe new life into your deck, making every surface a testament to timeless beauty and craftsmanship.
As nature takes its course, even the most stunning decks can succumb to wear and tear, leaving the wood weathered and unhealthy. Unsure if it’s time to revitalize your deck? Conduct a simple water splash test: pour some water onto the surface, and if it’s immediately absorbed by the wood, it’s a clear sign that deck restoration is overdue. Don’t wait until the damage worsens – take action now to bring back the beauty and health of your outdoor space.
Tags : If you’ve got the handrails on your deck painted it is not real good by our book, but it’s not the end of the world.
Unfortunately, we can not restore it to beautiful natural looking wood. Our wood strippers will not work, because it designed for sealers and stains, and sanding will not work, because there is no way to get a sander down to every surface.
Here what you should do:
 – Get a good painter contractor.
 – Make sure, they prepare surface properly. They should pressure wash the handrails with house cleaner and bleach, scrub all pilled paint, then apply a nice paint, or solid stain with the color of your choice.
 – Make sure you’ll keep about a gallon of this stuff. If vertical will last about 8-10 years, top of the handrails will ware out twice faster. You’ll need to re-touch the top of the handrails sometime in the middle of this cycle.
 – And never ever use paint or latex-acrylic stain on horizontal surface of your deck.
We love this deck at Mercer Island. Natural Cedar tone on clear cedar. Beutiful, isn’t it?
Tip from ExWoCare: The optimal temperature for the most sealers and stains to apply is between 75 and 85 degrees Fahrenheit
