Deck Repair & Staining

Replace rotted boards, tighten railings and stain or seal your deck to protect it for years.

Decks live outside, in sun, rain and humidity, and they need care. Boards crack and cup, railings loosen, fasteners rust and the finish wears away. A deck that is repaired and sealed on time can last for decades. A neglected one becomes a hazard.

We inspect the framing, ledger, posts and railings, replace damaged boards, re-secure fasteners and rails, then clean, brighten and stain or seal the surface. We recommend products suited to your wood and sun exposure and explain how often to refresh them.

A structural check

We probe boards, joists and posts for rot, check the ledger for movement and test railings for strength. Safety repairs come before cosmetic ones.

Board and rail replacement

Damaged boards are replaced with matching material, and railing posts are re-anchored or rebuilt so they hold when someone leans on them.

Clean, stain, seal

Pressure washing and a wood brightener remove gray and mildew. Once dry, we apply a quality stain or sealer in even coats, so the deck is protected and looks fresh.

Protecting new boards

New treated wood needs time to dry before staining. We tell you how long to wait and how to protect it in the meantime.
