Our Process

Restoring timber the right way

01

Assess & Sand

We check the timber for wear and moisture, then sand back to a clean, bare surface the coating can grip.

02

Clean & Treat

Greyed, weathered timber is cleaned and treated to remove grime, salt, and old finish before we coat.

03

Oil, Stain & Seal

A premium oil, stain, or sealer matched to your timber and its location is applied to protect against sun and salt.

04

Finish & Advise

We complete a final pass and give you simple care tips to extend the life of your deck, floor, fence, or pergola.

Timber & Decking Questions

Answers to common timber & decking questions

Do I need to sand my deck before oiling or staining it?

In most cases, yes. Sanding back to clean bare timber removes the grey, weathered surface layer and lets the oil, stain, or sealer penetrate properly so it lasts. It also smooths splinters and uneven grain. We assess your deck first and tell you honestly whether it needs a full sand or just a clean before coating.

How often should an outdoor timber deck be re-oiled?

It depends on how exposed the deck is and what it's coated with, but on Geelong's coast a well-prepped deck typically needs re-oiling every 12 to 18 months. Water beading less and wood starting to grey are the signs to watch for. We can tell you what your particular timber and location need and set you up with simple care tips between visits.

Why is my indoor timber floor fading or looking dull?

Sunlight and salt air break down the protective coating on timber floors, leaving them looking dry and dull. We sand and re-coat interior timber floors, stairs, and balustrades so they're resealed and protected. Using the right interior-grade finish and a simple care routine keeps them looking rich and even.
