THIS is why proper prep matters. 🪵 Before ➡️ Prep ➡️ After
When it comes to staining, the final coat is only as good as the preparation underneath it.
When we arrived at this log cabin, several areas had significant weathering, discoloration, organic growth and deterioration of the previous finish. Simply applying another coat of stain over the existing surface would not have properly restored the wood or given the homeowners the finished result they were looking for.
Our team thoroughly cleaned and prepared the exterior, removing years of buildup and failing material and getting the wood properly prepared before applying the new finish.
The post-wash photos show just how dramatic that preparation process was — and the finished photos show the difference when the job is done correctly.
Staining isn’t just spraying color onto wood. Understanding the existing coating, condition of the wood, preparation process and which product is appropriate for the project all matter.
That’s why choosing an experienced staining contractor can make such a difference in both the appearance and longevity of your investment.
This cabin came back to life, and we’re extremely happy with the transformation. 🏡
