Most residential deck refinishing projects are completed in 1 to 3 days, including cleaning, sanding, and stain application. Larger or severely weathered decks may take a bit longer. We'll give you a clear timeline before work begins.
The ideal window is late spring through early fall (May–September) when temps stay between 50°F–90°F. The deck surface needs to be dry for at least 48 hours before and after application. We monitor weather forecasts closely to time every job perfectly.
In most cases, staining is the better choice for decks. Stain penetrates the wood and allows it to breathe, making it far more durable in Illinois's weather. Paint tends to peel, crack, and require more frequent maintenance. We'll recommend the best option for your specific deck during our free estimate.
