Salem Deck Revival: Protect Your Outdoor Haven from Willamette Valley Weather

Living in Salem means embracing both the charms and challenges of the Mid-Willamette Valley climate. From sunny mornings in Bush’s Pasture Park to cozy evenings on the deck watching the sunset over the Capitol, Salem offers much natural beauty. However, the dampness, the moss, the rain, and the occasional summer heat can take a toll on outdoor spaces. 

Our experienced crew goes beyond a simple stain job. We understand the climate here and use the right products and techniques to combat moisture damage, mildew, fading, and pesky moss spores. We power wash away built-up gunk, expertly apply stains chosen for our region, and even reinforce your deck for durability. 

Over the years, we have truly mastered deck care in Salem. We know which stains can handle the dampness and shade leading to mold, the intense sun fading wood prematurely, and the constant moisture that can warp and crack decks. We offer a range of transparent, semi-transparent, or solid stains to match your style and home’s character.

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

The Willamette Valley Wash 

We start with a thorough 2-stage power wash to remove surface dirt, moss, algae, and grime. Then, we apply a wood brightener to lift out deeply embedded gunk, restoring your deck’s natural beauty. 

STEP 2

Reinforcing for Salem’s Four Seasons

Intense sun, heavy rains, and occasional ice can weaken your deck. We replace outdated hardware with durable, weather-resistant materials to keep your deck going for years.

STEP 3

Prepping for a Flawless Finish

Proper sanding creates the smooth surface needed for an immaculate finish. We use multi-grit sandpaper, starting coarser and refining with ultra-fine grit for optimal stain adhesion. 

STEP 4

Hand-Brushed Application 

Our skilled painters hand-apply high-quality oil-based stains using quality brushes. This ensures deep penetration into the wood grain for long-lasting color and protection, which is specially formulated for Salem’s climate.

STEP 5

Protecting Your View

Once staining is complete, we install protective fencing and breathable covers to shield your deck as it cures. This prevents marring the surface while ensuring a smooth finish.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why should I stain my deck? 

Staining protects your deck from Salem’s wet weather and intense sun exposure that can cause cracking, warping, and fading over time. It’s not just about looks – staining preserves the wood itself.  

How often do decks here need restaining?

With our climate, most decks need fresh stains every year or two. We recommend reapplying based on wear. Our stains are designed to withstand Salem’s rain and sun season after season.  

What kind of stain works best? 

We use rich, penetrating stains that deeply condition the wood for durability and a vibrant color that lasts. We’ll help you pick the right finish for your deck’s needs.

Can you fix my deck before restaining?

Definitely, we thoroughly inspect each deck first and reinforce any weak spots – whether it takes fortifying plates, fillers, or custom mixes. We want to ensure your deck is sound before applying the new stain.

How long does staining take?

We schedule about a week per project. That allows for proper prep work, repairs, applying multiple coats of stain, and adequate dry time in between. This enables us to completely restore your deck.
