Your fence and deck get stain that soaks into clean, dry wood, so the color wears evenly instead of peeling off in sheets. We cover Homer Glen from the back fence line to the front door.
We cover Homer Glen, and staining here means decks, fences, pergolas, wood siding and trim, front doors and the wood inside the house. Every job starts with cleaning and brightening the wood so the stain has open grain to soak into. Old coatings that have failed get stripped or sanded off, and loose or rotted boards get replaced before any stain goes on. Then we apply the stain you picked and back-brush it into the wood so it does not sit on top.
We reach Homer Glen up I-355 and along 143rd and 159th Street, and the village sits in Will County next to Lockport, Lemont and Orland Park. If your property has a long fence run, a lot of the job comes down to the bottom of the pickets. Those last few inches near the grass stay wet longest, gray first and start to soften, so we clean them hard and get stain onto the end grain at the ground line. If you want the outside face done too and the neighbor agrees, we price both sides in the estimate.
The wood gets cleaned of dirt, gray fibers and mildew, then brightened so the grain opens back up and takes stain evenly.
Stain that has peeled or worn through in patches gets stripped or sanded back so the new coat bonds to wood, not to a loose film.
Loose, split or rotted deck boards and pickets come out and new ones go in, so you are not paying to coat wood that is already done.
The bottom edges and cut ends of fence boards soak up water fastest, so they get extra cleaning and a full coat.
We brush stain into the boards and back-brush sprayed sections so it soaks in and does not puddle in the gaps.
Plants, the house wall next to the deck and any patio or walk get covered before stripping and staining start.
The estimate is free and done on site, where we look at every board with you. You get it in writing, with the surfaces, the prep, the stain type and the number of coats spelled out. If a board that looked fine turns out to be rotted under the surface, we price the replacement in writing and wait for your approval. We book around the days we said and walk the deck or fence with you when the last coat is on.
