What is involved in Sacramento Deck Restoration?


Sacramento wood restoration and refinishing of exterior wood involves either cleaning or stripping the surface. If the wood on your deck is uncoated, it needs to be cleaned and fully restored thoroughly with a product specifically formulated to gently remove the aged top surface layer, which will rid the surface of its grayed appearance. The benefit of Sacramento wood restoration and wood staining/ cleaning is that it will get the ground-in dirt and stains from food splatters and fungus growth, including mildew, mold and algae. If your deck has been previously coated with a varnish or colored stain, stripping, restoration, cleaning and staining will be required.

Why is Deck Restoration necessary

Sacramento Deck Restoration of uncoated wood decks requires cleaning, as uncoated wood on your deck that is weathered gray or covered with embedded dirt and fungus growth will prevent a deck coating from adhering or penetrating properly, which can lead to premature deck color fading, cracking and peeling, or reduced water repellency performance. Once cleaned, however, the wood surface on your deck will be restored to its natural, like-new appearance, and will be ready to accept a protective coating, sealing and overall deck refinishing. Previously varnished or stained wood will not accept a different type (water-base over oil-base) or color of coating without risk of performance failure and color bleed-through, and therefore, should be stripped in order to have a full blown deck restoration and refinish.

For New Wood Deck Staining and Cleaning


Just as in the restoration and refinishing of old wood decking, it is necessary to prepare the surface of the new wood before coating. California Concepts will prepare the surface for deck cleaning and the brand new, uncoated surface in order to remove invisible surface barriers, such as excess wax found on pressure-treated wood, or mill glaze, a burnished surface often present on new Cedar lumber. By preparing the surface of your wood deck cleaning (Sacramento) the surface of your deck which is the invisible barrier wax or mill glaze is removed, and wood pores are unclogged and opened, allowing trapped moisture to escape, which minimizes deck cracking and deck splitting before and after the restoration and coating of your wood deck.

All wood decking needs to be cleaned well before staining, whether it’s a brand new deck, or an older deck that’s been out in the weather and needs to be re-stained.
