Our process

 

New Again Deck Renewal uses 

a multistep, environmentally friendly process to restore your wood:

 

*If you have new wood please click here to learn  more about the process.  

1. We give you a written quote detailing the work to be completed.

 

2. A chemical is applied to the wood to loosen the existing stain. We use Wolman products for the cleaning process. New Again Deck Renewal is a Wolman-certified contractor. We are very careful to avoid or protect your plants, grass and other sensitive areas. 

 

3. A power washer is used to gently, safely clean and prepare the surface for staining.

 

4. A neutralizing, brightening agent is applied to the wood. This brings the wood back into pH balance and helps it resist mold

 

5. The wood is left to dry to a moisture content of 12% or less per a moisture meter. Drying can take one to several days, depending on the weather.

 

6. If needed, we will sand the handrail before we start staining. 

 Sanding in other areas will be extra charge. 

  

 

7. We stain/seal the wood by hand with a penetrating, enduring oil-based TWP1500 (Total Wood Preservative) stain/sealer in these colors .

This stain/sealer protects your wood from the sun, water and algae. We also offer an eco-friendly stain from Timber OX Green . 

This robust, agriculturally based oil stain comes in these colors. It exceeds all state and federal VOC, Environmental Protection Agency standards. In addition, it uses nanoparticle technology, triple-polymer resins and iron oxide pigments to protect against sun and other damaging elements.
