Deck painting and staining that restores the look of your timber and helps it last longer. We prepare the surface properly and use the right product for the condition of the deck.

Best Finish for Your Deck

Service FAQ
Common questions before you request a estimate
How do you decide between stain, oil, and solid deck paint? +
That depends on the timber condition, the amount of weathering, and the look the owner wants. LFQ recommends the option that fits both the substrate and the finish goal.
Do decks always need sanding before recoating? +
Not always, but preparation is usually significant. Cleaning, mould treatment, removal of loose coatings, and sanding are often needed to get proper adhesion and a cleaner result.
Can deck work be done alongside fences and related timber surfaces? +
Yes. Decks are often scoped together with fences, rails, gates, and outdoor timber details when it makes sense to handle the whole area in one project.
Thinking about restoring a deck or timber surface?
LFQ can advise on prep, coating choice, and the right scope for decks, fences, and exposed outdoor timber.
