Supreme Deck

	A popular option with homeowners is what we call paint and stain. This is where the vertical rails are painted with a solid color stain (usually to match the house) and a transparent coating is applied to the flooring. This will eliminate the chances of the floor peeling. Once the rails however are painted there is no longer the option to go natural in the future.
	Deck Repair & Building We offer complete deck services from a repair of one floor board to a complete deck. We weather most of our wood prior to installing it to insure that is matches up better to the rest of the deck. New cedar lumber has a mill glaze on the wood that acts like a skin and does not allow the stain to penetrate properly causing it to stand out for several years. Most repair companies go to Lowe's or Home Depot and buy new cedar and install it and you have to look at a floor that looks very uneven (old and new boards). We have solved this problem. When we wash and seal the deck all of the board are very close to matching up when the job is complete.
	The cedar that most people are using for decks is not as rot resistant as the cedar that was being used 30 years ago. In the old days, cedar and redwood decks were built from old growth lumber, which was loaded with oils and natural chemicals that made it highly resistant to insect attack and decay. These days, the wood is coming from new growth and managed forests, it contains lots of sapwood. This wood will decay faster. Plus, it cracks and splinters. And if it's not kept treated, it generally looks bad after a few years.
