Why does my wood need protection? Wood on the exterior of your home takes quite a beating. Rain, snow, mildew, mold, and the sun's rays can quickly destroy the looks and condition of exterior wood. Constant cycles of temperature varying as much as 60 degrees in a single day, along with wet/dry cycles will shrink and expand wood, leading to cracking, checking, and splitting. Cleaning and sealing will not only moisturize the dry wood but provide a beautiful finish that resists graying and protects against mildew.
Why is my deck gray? The gray look on your deck comes as a result of Ultraviolet light. These UV rays damage the surface of your wood leaving it dull and gray.
I have pressure treated lumber. Isn't that enough? Pressure treating is a process by which a chemical known as CCA or ACQis injected into wood. Although this typically protects wood from insect decay and rotting, the wood remains vulnerable to many of the conditions explained above.
How much will it cost? Servicing your exterior wood project is much more than simply applying a coat of stain. We take into account many variables including age of the wood, previous finishes, plant protection, cleaning requirements and look for any damaged or unsafe wood.
