We started Santa Barbara Wood Restoration because weathered wood is worth saving, and too much of it gets torn out when it could have been brought back. A deck or fence that has gone gray and rough is almost always sound underneath. It just needs the right process to look like wood again.
That process is four steps, and the order is what matters. We clean the wood, sand it smooth, brighten it to open the grain, then seal it with an oil-based finish. The brightening step is the one most jobs skip, and it is the one that decides whether the color comes out even. We do it on every job.
We protect your landscaping while we work, keep you posted on the plan, and walk the finished job with you before we leave. If something is not right, we make it right.
