Problem: Weather-Damaged & Discolored Deck Surface
Algae, Moss, and Mold Accumulation: Shaded deck surfaces trap moisture, leading to slippery green algae and dark mildew buildup that damages wood fibers over time.
Peeling & Flaking Old Stain: Sun exposure and water penetration cause existing stains to crack, lift, and peel away, leaving uneven bare wood exposed to the elements.
Discoloration & Graying: Unprotected wood boards suffer UV damage and graying, giving the entire outdoor area an aged, neglected look.
Safety Hazards: Slippery organic growth combined with rough, splintering boards creates an unsafe surface for family and guests.
Solution: Professional Deck Cleaning, Restoration & Solid Staining
Deep Pressure Washing & Surface Prep: Deep-cleaning the wood using specialized deck cleaners and power washing removes all dirt, moss, algae, and flaking old finish down to a clean, solid wood substrate.
Wood Board Repair & Sanding: Smooths out rough edges, repairs minor surface imperfections, and prepares the wood grain to absorb fresh protective coatings evenly.
Application of Premium Solid Stain: Applying a high-durability, dark brown solid stain/sealer creates a rich, uniform finish that completely covers old blemishes and seals out moisture.
Long-Lasting Weather Protection: Protects the deck, railings, and outdoor seating against future UV rays, rain, mold, and daily foot traffic wear
