When is it time for exterior wood staining or painting?

Published: March 09, 2022

Call Gulf Coast Stain and Seal Co. for restoring the natural beauty of your hardwood surfaces, including docks, decks, fences, luxury outdoor hardwood furniture, and hardwood surfaces on the exterior of your home or backyard feature.

Natural wood surfaces that are outdoors will need maintenance such as sanding, refinishing, staining and sealing to maintain the finish and consistency of the wood over time. 

It is common on the Gulf Coast of Florida to have wood surfaces that look diminished or faded. Prolonged sun and weather are major contributing factors in the life of your wood surface. Applying a stain and finishing the wood surface will seal the wood against moisture and other damage by weather and wear and tear. If your wood surface looks faded, then it may be time to call an expert in to look at the wood's condition and provide an estimate to stain or paint the surface.

Staining and restoring natural wood is more than just applying finish or varnish. Before we stain and seal, we thoroughly clean the surface correctly with a professional-grade pressure washer. We make sure not to damage your wood surface. Wood damage can occur if you don't properly use a pressure washer on a wood surface. Removing the dirt, paint, or old finish will show us the wood surface and its condition. In some cases, we have to pressure wash the wood even to know how much refinishing will be required for the job. 

With exterior staining, painting, and sealing from Gulf Coast Stain and Seal Co., your exterior wood will be stronger, more beautiful, and last longer. While there is still time, take a proactive approach and seal the wood now. Doing so may help you avoid a costly, frustrating, and time-consuming mistake. Replacing wood surfaces can be expensive and will only cost you more stress and money in the end. 

It is time to stain or paint your exterior wood surface if it appears dull, warped, or discolored. Even if your wood surface does not look bad, you may need to call in an expert. Because the truth is, natural wood may not look like it is faded. You don't see any problems on the surface, but the longer the wood is exposed without a sealer, the sooner the problems will start. Restore your home's natural beauty with wood restoration from Gulf Coast Stain and Seal Co.
