OUR PROCESS
STEP 1
Let’s Start with a Good Scrubbing
First, we’ll give your deck a thorough power washing to blast away any dusty pollen, leaves, and other gunk that tends to collect, even in a place as nice as San Marcos. Then, we’ll apply a special wood brightener solution to lift stains from deep in the wood fibers, bringing back that natural beauty.
STEP 2
Strengthening Your Foundation
Intense sunlight, dry air, the occasional hailstorm – it takes a toll! We’ll inspect your deck to replace any hardware that’s corroded or past its prime with new weather-resistant screws and nails. This ensures your deck stays sturdy for years.
STEP 3
Smoothing Things Out
A flawless finish starts with a smooth canvas. We’ll gently sand away any splinters or rough spots, refining the surface with ultra-fine grit sandpaper. This preps your wood to fully absorb the rich stains we’ll apply next.
STEP 4
Craftsmanship in Every Brushstroke
Our skilled painters believe in the artistry of our work. Using high-quality brushes, we’ll hand-apply oil-based stains designed specifically to withstand San Marcos’ climate. This allows the wood to drink up the color and protection fully.
STEP 5
Shielding Your Oasis
Once stained, we’ll install weather-resistant barrier fencing and breathable covers to protect your deck as the finish cures. This prevents wind, debris or moisture from marring the surface as it transitions from stained to stunning.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why is deck staining crucial in San Marcos?
Staining your deck is important here in San Marcos because of our hot, dry climate. The fluctuating weather can be pretty tough on a deck! Staining protects the wood from drying out, cracking, fading, bugs – all sorts of issues. It helps your deck last longer.
How often should I stain my deck in San Marcos?
We usually recommend re-staining a deck every year or two. The stains we use are made to handle the San Marcos weather. They soak deep into the wood and provide good protection over time.
What kind of stain is best for decks in San Marcos?
We use high-quality stains designed specifically for our climate. They provide a nice color, guard against UV rays, and help the wood hold moisture. We’ll help you find the right stain for your deck’s look and perform.
Can you repair my deck before staining?
Before we start staining, we thoroughly inspect the structure of your deck. We can reinforce weak spots with metal brackets, wood fillers, or custom epoxy mixes if anything needs repair. Before applying the protective stain, we want to ensure your deck is in good shape.
How long will it take to stain my deck?
A typical staining project takes us about 5-7 business days. That gives us plenty of prep time, allows for repairs if needed, applies multiple coats of stain, and lets everything dry properly.
