Deck, Log Home & Dock Staining & Sealing

Most Stain Jobs Fail Because of Bad Prep

Stain doesn't fail because of the stain — it fails because the wood underneath wasn't ready for it. On Greers Ferry Lake, exposed wood greys and oxidizes fast. That dead grey layer, the lake mildew, and the old failing finish all have to come off before new stain can soak in and bond. Skip that step and the stain sits on top, peels, and you're doing it all again next year.

This is exactly where being a soft-wash company changes the outcome. We clean wood for a living — we know which chemistry lifts mildew and tannin, how to strip a failing finish without gouging the grain, how to handle oxidation with a brightener so the wood takes stain evenly, and how to bring the surface back to a sound, open, stainable state. Then, and only then, do we coat it.

From a backyard deck in Heber Springs to a full log home on the Little Red River, here's what we stain and seal:

Deck Staining & Sealing

Lakeside decks take constant sun and foot traffic. We strip the grey, brighten the grain, and seal with a penetrating stain that sheds water and holds color.

Deck Staining

Fence Staining & Sealing

Wood and cedar privacy fences fight UV on one side and lake humidity on the other. We clean both faces and seal them against rot, greying, and cupping.

Log Home & Cabin Staining

The signature lake-country home. We handle log checking, clean and prep full perimeter walls, and re-stain to protect the logs and keep that cabin look.

Dock & Boathouse Staining

Decks, docks, and boathouse wood need the right stain or sealer. We protect wood surfaces from sun, moisture, and lake conditions.

We Clean It Before We Coat It

Anyone can roll on stain. The difference is what happens first — and on lake wood, that's everything.

1

Oxidation Handled Right

Greyed, oxidized wood won't hold stain. We clean and brighten the fibers so the new finish soaks in and bonds evenly.

2

Lake Mildew & Tannin Removed

Shoreline humidity feeds mildew and tannin bleed. Our surface-specific chemistry lifts it before it stains through your new coat.

3

Penetrating, Water-Shedding Finishes

We use stains and sealers chosen for this climate — they penetrate the wood, shed water, and slow the next round of greying.

Clean, Prep, Stain, Seal

The same disciplined order on every wood job, scaled up or down for a deck, a fence, a dock, or a whole log home.

1

Clean & Strip

Remove dirt, lake mildew, tannin, and any failing finish with the right chemistry and gentle pressure for the wood.

2

Brighten & Prep

Neutralize and brighten oxidized fibers so the grain opens up and accepts stain evenly across the whole surface.

3

Stain & Seal

Apply a penetrating stain and sealer matched to the wood and the lake climate, with clean edges and full coverage.
