WE NEVER MISS A SPOT
Quality craftsmanship is all about perfecting the detail work, and we train our painters to pay extra attention to the areas other painters miss. We take pride in finishing every job to perfection.
OUR PROCESS
STEP 1
Two-Stage Power Washing
Start with standard pressure washing, then apply specialized wood brighteners to deeply clean weathered cells in preparation for staining.
STEP 2
Dual Action Stain Stripping
First, we mechanically scrape away loosening flaking spots of old stain finish. Next, we brush on an advanced stain stripping solution to lift aging layers so new stain bonds tightly.
STEP 3
Precision Deck Plank Replacement
Our team precisely measures and cuts fiber-reinforced synthetic planking to replace structurally compromised sections for flawless uniformity and renewed stability.
STEP 4
Multi-Grit Sanding Process
We first methodically smooth roughened textures and openings in the wood grain using coarse-grit sandpaper, then refine with ultra fine-grit for a polished foundation to receive rich stain.
STEP 5
Hand-Brushed Stain Application
Our painters use high-quality bristle brushes to manually work penetrating oil-based stains deep into the wood fiber network for complete coverage and long-term protection.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is deck staining vital in Central Maine?
Staining forms an advanced protective barrier against the extreme annual freeze/thaw cycles, punishing UV exposure, and heavy snow loads that can severely damage untreated pine and cedar over time.
How often should I stain a Central Maine deck?
We recommend resealing every two years with our polymer-reinforced stains designed for drastic climate swings. This prevents moisture ingress, leading to cracks, warps, discoloration, and decay.
What’s the optimal deck stain for Central ME?
Our innovative nano-particle stains deeply saturate wood cells with vibrant pigments interlaced at the molecular level with UV blockers and water repellents for unrivaled durability against soil, rain, salt, and sun.
Can you reinforce my Central Maine deck before staining?
Yes. We conduct structural inspections and install fortifying metal plates and custom-mixed epoxy compounds on weak points to bolster integrity before staining.
How long does your Central ME deck staining service last?
We block 5-7 business days for stripping, fortifying repairs, triple nano-stain coat applications, and supervised curing to ensure many years of optimized performance within this harsh four-season climate.
