What We Cover
Our Portland
Our Portland
Deck Restoration Services
Every deck restoration project includes the work below, delivered by our in-house Portland crew. No subcontractors. No surprise add-ons. Every job covered by our 10-year workmanship warranty.
Sand to 80-Grit
We sand to 80-grit on cedar, 120-grit on hardwood. Surface preparation removes 0.5-1mm of weathered wood and opens the grain for stain absorption.
Board Replacement (As Needed)
Deck refurbish Portland includes replacing 2-8 damaged boards on average. We match cedar grade and IPE stock from local Portland yards to keep visual consistency.
Marine-Grade Stain Application
Premium oil-based stains penetrate 1/8 inch (3 mm) into wood grain. Semi-transparent, solid, or natural color matches your existing house trim and PNW climate exposure.
Sealing & UV Protection
Low-VOC penetrating sealer with UV inhibitors. Marine-grade formulas resist Portland 36-inch annual rainfall and protect against salt drift on waterfront decks.
Railing & Stair Refresh
Sand, stain, and seal railings and stair stringers. Tighten loose balusters and replace damaged 1x6 fascia boards as part of the restoration scope.

Repaired by Portland Experts.
Portland decks face conditions most contractors don't understand. Our 36+ inches of annual rainfall combined with evergreen shade creates the perfect environment for wood rot. Add freeze-thaw cycles, constant humidity rolling off the Willamette, and moss-friendly surfaces, and you have a deck that's aging faster than almost anywhere else in the country.
We've worked decks in every Portland microclimate, from shaded north-facing lots in Sellwood-Moreland and Grant Park, to river-exposed waterfront homes in Alameda and Cathedral Park, to hillside elevated decks in Southwest Hills and Hawthorne. Each has unique failure patterns. We know them.
That's why every deck restoration project we deliver uses stainless or coated fasteners (not basic galvanized), proper joist flashing, and pressure-treated framing rated for ground contact, even where code doesn't require it.
- Stainless / coated fasteners standard on every project
- Ground-contact-rated framing exceeds Portland code requirements
- Joist flashing & ledger protection against PNW moisture
- Marine-grade sealers for riverfront & high-humidity homes
