How to Refinish Your Wood Deck

Refinishing your wood deck every few years is necessary maintenance.

Start by cleaning the deck with a deck cleaner of your choice. Cover your plants and avoid painted areas. After cleaning, be sure to rinse the deck really well. Then, let it sit for 2 days. GNH recommends using Cabot Exterior Stain to protect your surfaces from the elements and provide the highest level of waterproofing protection available. Cabot Exterior Stain comes in a variety of choices from clear to a solid deck stain. Pigment helps protect from the sun’s UV damage.
