Professional Deck Refinishing

Your deck has seen better days. The color has faded, the wood has greyed, and it just doesn't look as good as it used to. But before you think about replacing it, consider refinishing. A proper refinishing job can make an old deck look nearly new again - for a fraction of the replacement cost.

Here in Acworth, our decks take a beating from the Georgia sun, humidity, and rain. Without regular maintenance, wood decks fade, grey, and can start to deteriorate. But if the structure is still sound, refinishing can extend your deck's life by years.

DECKsclusive provides complete deck refinishing services including cleaning, brightening, sanding, staining, and sealing. We use quality products that protect your deck while bringing back its beauty. Call (678) 619-9029 to schedule a refinishing estimate.

Our Process

Deck Refinishing Steps

1

Inspection

We check your deck for any repairs needed before refinishing. Loose boards get secured, popped nails get replaced with screws.

2

Cleaning

We apply deck cleaner to remove dirt, mildew, and old finish residue. Then pressure wash at the right PSI to avoid damaging the wood.

3

Brightening

A wood brightener restores the natural color and opens the grain to accept stain better. This step makes a big difference in final results.

4

Sanding

If needed, we sand rough spots and raised grain. This creates a smooth surface and helps the stain absorb evenly.

5

Staining

We apply quality deck stain in your chosen color. Multiple coats for railings and end grain where absorption is higher.

6

Sealing

A protective sealer locks in the color and provides weather protection. Your deck is now ready for years of use.

Stain Options

Choosing a Deck Stain

Deck stains come in different opacities, each with pros and cons:

Transparent Stains

Shows the natural wood grain. Minimal color change. Needs reapplication every 1-2 years. Best for new or well-maintained decks with beautiful grain.

Semi-Transparent Stains

Adds color while still showing grain. Good balance of appearance and protection. Lasts 2-3 years. Most popular choice for Acworth decks.

Semi-Solid Stains

More color, less grain showing. Better at hiding imperfections. Lasts 3-4 years. Good for older decks with wear marks.

Solid Stains

Covers grain completely like paint but still shows texture. Best at hiding flaws. Lasts 4-5 years. Good for decks that have seen better days.

FAQ

Deck Refinishing Questions

Most wood decks in the Acworth area should be refinished every 2-3 years, depending on the stain type and sun exposure. Transparent stains need more frequent refreshing than solid stains.

Absolutely. In fact, bare wood that's been allowed to grey can look amazing once cleaned, brightened, and stained. We often refinish decks that were never properly finished when they were built.

Spring and fall are ideal - temperatures between 50-80°F with low humidity. Summer can work too if we start early in the morning. We avoid refinishing in direct sunlight or when rain is expected within 24-48 hours.
