Protect and beautify your deck with professional staining, sealing, and painting services that stand up to Texas weather.
Wood decks face constant attack from sun, rain, humidity, and temperature changes. Without proper protection, wood dries out, cracks, fades to gray, and eventually rots. Regular staining or sealing prevents this damage and keeps your deck looking fresh for years.
At BDD Beaumont Deck Builder, we provide professional deck finishing services that protect your investment and enhance its appearance. Whether your deck is new and needs its first coat or old and needs restoration, we have the expertise to do it right. We have been serving Beaumont since 2024 with quality finishing work.
We offer three main types of deck finishing, each with specific benefits:
Proper preparation makes all the difference between a finish that lasts one year and one that lasts three or four years. We never skip steps to save time.
We start with thorough cleaning using professional deck cleaners and pressure washing. This removes dirt, mildew, old finish, and gray weathered wood. The surface must be completely clean for new finish to adhere properly.
Before applying finish, we fix any loose boards, replace damaged wood, and sand rough areas. We also check and tighten all fasteners. Your deck needs to be in good condition before we seal it in with finish.
We apply stain, sealant, or paint using the right method for the product and weather conditions. Some products are best brushed, others sprayed or rolled. We work in manageable sections and maintain wet edges to avoid lap marks.
We time our work around weather forecasts to ensure proper drying. Most finishes need 24 to 48 hours to dry fully before you can use the deck. Some products benefit from a second coat for maximum protection.
The best finish depends on your deck's age, wood type, and your preferences. Here is how to decide:
Clear or semi-transparent stain works best on new wood. It lets the natural grain show while providing UV and moisture protection. If you built a new wood deck, this is usually the right choice.
Solid stain or paint works better on decks that have weathered or show imperfections. These provide more coverage and can make an old deck look nearly new again.
Our hot, humid weather requires products formulated for tough conditions. We use finishes with mildewcides and strong UV blockers that hold up in Southeast Texas. Avoid cheap products that will fail in less than a year.
No finish lasts forever. Even the best products need to be reapplied every two to four years, depending on sun exposure and wear. Here is what you need to know:
Watch for signs that your deck needs refinishing: water no longer beads up on the surface, wood is turning gray, or you see areas where finish has worn off. The sooner you recoat, the easier the job and the better the results. Waiting too long means more cleaning and prep work.
Between refinishing, clean your deck once or twice a year with a mild cleaner. This removes dirt and mildew before they can damage the finish or wood. Simple maintenance extends the life of your finish and your deck. If your deck has bigger problems than just the finish, check out our deck repair services.
