Deck Staining & Refinishing by Elmwood Painting

Deck staining and refinishing in Tallahassee

Florida weather is hard on a deck. Sun grays the boards, rain and humidity feed mildew, and bare wood rots. A proper clean and stain does two jobs at once: it brings the wood back to life and it seals out the weather that was destroying it.

§ 02 — HOW IT WORKS

THE PROCESS.

  1. STEP 01

    Inspect

    We check the boards, rails, and fasteners, and flag anything that should be repaired before finishing.

  2. STEP 02

    Wash

    A thorough clean strips gray fibers, dirt, and mildew so the stain can penetrate.

  3. STEP 03

    Prep

    Rough spots sanded, repairs made, surrounding areas protected.

  4. STEP 04

    Stain

    Even coats worked into the wood, back brushed so it penetrates instead of sitting on top.

§ 03 — WHAT HOMEOWNERS SAY

§ 04 — STRAIGHT ANSWERS

DECK STAINING & REFINISHING FAQS.

How often should a deck be restained in Florida?

Most decks here need attention every 2 to 4 years depending on sun exposure and the finish used. A deck that sheds water when it rains is still protected. When water soaks in, it is time.

Can you fix damaged boards too?

Yes. Wood replacement is one of our core services, so damaged boards get repaired before the finish goes on rather than sealed over.
