Deck, Fence & Wood Staining in Wheaton

Wood siding and deck staining in Wheaton

Stained siding and trim need the same care as a deck: clean the wood, brighten it, and take off any coating that has failed. Split or rotted boards come out and new ones go in, with the cut ends sealed. Then we stain from the top down so drips never run across finished boards. We use the right ladders for two-story walls and cover windows, plants and walks before we start.

We work in Wheaton every week, coming in on Roosevelt Road and Naperville Road and through the streets around Main Street and the Metra station. If your house has cedar lap siding or shakes, the south and west walls take the most sun and usually lose their color first while the north side still looks fine. We can stain the whole house so it matches, or bring the faded walls back to the color of the others, and we tell you honestly whether a partial job will show. Shakes need stain brushed into every edge and the joints between them, which takes longer than flat siding, and the estimate reflects that.

What Wheaton siding and deck staining includes

How a Wheaton siding staining job runs

We walk every side of the house with you and send a written estimate that lists each wall, the repairs, the prep and the stain. When a board we planned to stain turns out rotted, you see it and approve a written price before we replace it. Siding days are booked on dry stretches, and we work the shaded side when the sun is hot so the stain does not dry too fast. We finish with a walk around the whole house.
