First, we blast away surface gunk with our power washer! Then, we apply a special wood brightener that soaks deep into the deck boards, lifting out dirt and restoring that natural beauty.
Cleveland weather can be hard on deck structures, from hot summers to snowy winters. We’ll inspect and swap out any worn-out or corroded hardware with weather-tough screws, nails, and fixtures to keep your deck going strong for years.
A smooth surface is key so the stain looks its best. We start by sanding away any splinters or rough spots with coarse grit paper, then refine it to silky smoothness with ultra-fine grit – perfect for the stain to grab onto.
Our skilled painters use top-shelf brushes to work the oil-based stain deep into the wood grains for rich, long-lasting color and protection. We pick stains made to handle Northeast Ohio weather.
Once the staining is done, we put up weather-resistant screens and breathable covers while the finish cures. This prevents debris, moisture, and direct sun from messing up that smooth surface.
We always deliver transformative work from professionals that generate a whole lot of joy. No job is too big or too small to provide excellence in quality.
Paint is messy, but your experience shouldn’t be. We believe in cleaning up after ourselves, just like any good house guest should. We start with proper prep and end with thorough cleanup.
We do everything from start to finish on time while communicating with you throughout the entire project. If the details or scope of work change, we always communicate how and when things will get done.
We offer upfront and honest pricing without any hidden fees. Rest assured, you will get what you pay for. Above all else, we prioritize giving you the best experience and highest-quality service.
Why stain decks around here? Northeast Ohio weather can be rough on outdoor wood – frigid winters, hot, humid summers, and spring downpours. Without protection, you’ll get a cracking, warping, fading deck. Staining keeps things looking sharp while safeguarding that beauty and integrity. Consider it a wise investment.
To keep it looking fresh and prevent costly repairs down the road, we recommend reapplying the stain every 1-3 years, depending on use and exposure. We use the most durable stains formulated specifically for our climate to maximize that protection.
We use only premium quality stains designed for the unique challenges of Northeast Ohio weather. They deeply penetrate the wood with rich color plus superior UV, water, and mold/mildew resistance. We’ll help you select the perfect product for your deck and personal style.
Absolutely! We thoroughly inspect each deck beforehand and can reinforce any weak spots with metal bracing, wood fillers, or custom-mixed epoxy as needed. That way, your deck will be structurally sound for years of entertaining.
We typically schedule 5-7 business days for the full prep-to-finish process. That allows enough time to properly clean, make necessary repairs, apply multiple coats of stain, and let each coat fully dry. The result is a flawless, long-lasting finish that’ll have your deck looking better than ever!
