Our Expert Deck Painting & Staining Process

Our team of handymen specializes in transforming and protecting your deck with expert deck painting and staining services. Our process ensures a beautiful, durable finish:

1. Comprehensive Assessment: We begin with a thorough inspection of your deck's condition, identifying the wood type, existing finishes, and any surface imperfections or structural concerns that need addressing before we begin.
2. Meticulous Preparation:
   • Stripping Old Finishes: We use professional-grade wood strippers to safely remove old stains or sealants without damaging the wood, followed by a wood brightener to neutralize the surface and restore the wood’s natural tone.
   • Thorough Cleaning: Power washing removes dirt, grime, mold, and mildew.
   • Careful Sanding: We sand the deck with appropriate grit sandpaper (typically 60- to 80-grit) to smooth out rough spots and ensure proper stain absorption for an even, flawless finish. Finer grits can seal wood pores, reducing absorption, so careful selection is key.
3. Expert Application:
   • Quality Materials: We use high-quality, professional paints or stains tailored to your deck's wood type and exposure to the elements.
   • Precision Application: While rollers or sprayers can cover large areas efficiently, we pay meticulous attention to detail. We use brushes for edges, railings, and hard-to-reach areas, ensuring uniform coverage and pushing the finish deeper into the wood grain for a vibrant, flawless result.
4. Premium Sealing (for stains): After staining, we apply a premium sealant to further protect the wood against water damage, UV rays, and mildew, maximizing its lifespan.
