Deck Restoration & Staining in Richmond, VA
A faded finish does not tell the whole story of an older deck. Before choosing a stain color or deciding to rebuild, it helps to look at the boards and the structure supporting them. DeckCraft restores and stains decks in Richmond and the surrounding counties. Since 2017, one crew has carried the work from preparation through the finished surface, with free on-site estimates to establish what your deck actually needs.

What’s included
Preparation that addresses the condition
Restoration includes deep cleaning and mildew treatment, sanding, re-fastening and board replacement where needed. A new coat is not a substitute for dealing with damaged wood. We inspect the framing, ledger and footings first, then discuss whether restoration or repair is the appropriate starting point. This keeps the scope focused on the deck rather than its color alone.
Two-coat Behr Premium stain
We use Behr Premium stain and a two-coat process for restoration. Solid-color stain is an option for a finish that looks even across old and replacement boards. The preparation and application belong together: after the cleaning and sanding work, the staining step needs the right dry weather window instead of being forced into a wet day.
From estimate to walkthrough
How the process works
Inspect before choosing the finish
At the free visit, show us the areas that feel rough, look faded or have boards you are worried about. We can review those concerns alongside the structure below. Estimates are scheduled within 48 hours. A photograph can start the conversation, but the on-site inspection is how we distinguish surface wear from work that needs a repair first.
Prepare, repair and stain
The restoration sequence addresses cleaning, needed board replacement, sanding and re-fastening before the two-coat finish. Staining is rescheduled when rain prevents a suitable dry window. The same crew stays with the project through the final walkthrough. Call (804) 399-9722 to discuss your deck and arrange an estimate without committing to restoration before it has been inspected.
Questions about restoration & staining
Can staining hide boards that need replacement?
The restoration scope includes board replacement as needed before staining. We inspect the deck and discuss the condition of the wood first. An even solid-color finish is a finishing choice, not a reason to leave damaged boards in place.
What stain and application do you use?
DeckCraft uses Behr Premium stain with two coats for restoration work. Cleaning, mildew treatment, sanding and re-fastening are considered alongside the finish, so the estimate covers preparation rather than only the application of a new color.
Will you stain the deck if rain is forecast?
Staining needs a dry window. When the weather does not allow that step, we reschedule it rather than trap moisture under the coat. The finish is planned around suitable conditions, separate from any preparation or structural work.
