What if my fence or deck has extensive rot or damage?
Short Answer
Minor repairs can be handled by our team before painting or staining. For extensive rot or structural damage, we will advise you on whether repairs or a contractor are needed before proceeding with painting or staining.
Long Answer
If your deck or fence has extensive rot, damage, or structural issues, it's crucial to address these problems before moving forward with painting or staining. While we can handle minor repairs, such as filling in small holes or cracks and replacing a few damaged boards, more significant damage requires professional attention.
Minor Damage: For small, localized issues like cracks, splits, or minor rot, our team can perform repairs in-house. We will replace any rotting wood, sand rough areas, and ensure the surface is smooth and stable before applying the paint or stain. These repairs help to restore the integrity of your deck or fence and allow the coating to adhere properly.
Major Damage: If the deck or fence has widespread rot, structural issues, or severe damage, it’s advisable to consult a contractor before painting or staining. Structural issues, such as unstable posts, broken beams, or rotting foundation, need to be repaired to ensure the safety and stability of the structure. In such cases, we may recommend professional repair services before proceeding with the painting project.
If you have concerns about the condition of your deck or fence, we can assess the damage and provide a detailed recommendation for the necessary repairs. Our goal is to ensure that your deck or fence is not only aesthetically pleasing but also structurally sound for years to come. Proper maintenance and timely repairs help extend the life of your outdoor structures and protect your investment.
