Your deck needs to be professionally finished if you want expert results. Supreme Deck Restoration is one of the premier deck restoration companies in Southeast Michigan (MI) area including New Baltimore, MI to help restore your deck professionally. For professional restoration results all the old sealer must be chemically removed and stripped off the deck before any new sealer can be applied. Cedar grain will naturally raise a little when it's stripped, so a professional wood restorer will remove as much of the fuzzies as possible. Because cedar looses it natural oil over time, a professional grade oil based deck sealer should be also considered. A penetrating oil based wood sealer such as TWP, Olympic, Rymar, Olympic, and Penofin stain will help replenish and protect the wood inside and out of most of the lost oil.

It is recommended by all the top deck stain manufactures that every two years a deck should be cleaned and sealed. New decks still need to be cleaned to remove all of the mill galze. However, sealers on a new cedar deck will last more than a season. This is because the wood will not hold as much oil based sealer and high levels of natural oils are still present.
