Do you have a wood deck on your property that is beginning to show it’s age? Has the original color or stain begun to fade away? You’ve probably invested thousands of dollars into a beautiful deck so don’t let your deck deteriorate because the wood is unprotected from the elements. Refinishing or restaining your wood deck can restore it’s natural beauty and add years to the life of your deck.
Signature Look Painting & Decorating is a top-rated exterior painting contractor based out of Dupage County and serving Oak Park and surrounding areas. We specialize in cleaning and refinishing or restaining wood decks of all sizes.
Refinishing your deck is much less expensive than rebuilding it but it’s still a difficult and time consuming process to do it right. There are a lot of painters out there doing decks because they money can be fast but it shouldn’t be. Refinishing a deck properly takes care and attention, especially during the preparation to ensure your new deck paint or stain lasts for many years.
Our process for renewing an old damaged deck include:
Cleaning The Deck Surfaces: Thorough preparation is the key to restoring your wood deck to a like new condition. Depending on what we find when we take a look at your deck, your deck may receive either a chemical finish remover or a commercial grade cleaning detergent. These professional grade cleaners will safely remove years of failed stain, mold, mildew, and other dirt. A low pressure wash will remove these detergents to reveal a clean wood surface that is ready for paint or stain to bond with.
PH Neutralization: This is a step often skipped by many painters but it’s important. Commercial grade cleaners are caustic on the PH scale which changes the chemical of the wood that needs to be painted or stained. A chemical neutralizer should be applied. This balances the wood’s PH making it more receptive to staining. In addition to preparing the wood for stain, the neutralization process can also act as a brightener, returning the wood to it’s natural look.
Deck Repairs: Wood decks that have been out in the elements for years can have many issues that need to be repaired. Warped or rotten deck boards might need to be replaced, nails or screws might have pulled and need to be reset, handrails may also need to be set and secured. We can include any minor repairs required in our estimate.
Staining Or Painting The Deck: Once we’re finished cleaning, neutralizing, and all of the prep work, your deck is ready for the final step. Applying the paint or stain! We apply a high quality latex based stain to all surfaces, railings, steps, and posts on your deck. All our stains are commercial quality and resistant to mold, mildew, and water. Whether we use paint or stain really depends on what products were used on your deck prior.
