Our Services in San Clemente, CA

Teak Restoration

Teak is highly valued for its durability, moisture resistance, and natural oils, which protect the wood from rotting. However, even teak can lose its vibrant golden color over time. With our teak restoration methods, you can transform it to its original beauty.

The process begins with a thorough cleaning to eliminate surface dirt, oxidation, mold, and old coatings. If tougher finishes such as varnish or polyurethane are present, a mild stripping agent breaks them down. Once the wood is clean and dry, it undergoes careful sanding to remove any remaining debris, smooth the surface, and reveal fresh wood.

After sanding, we apply a mild brightening solution to cleanse the wood further, enhance its natural color, and prevent black mold. Once the furniture is fully dry, we apply a protective oil-based sealer to guard against weathering and oxidation. For those seeking a custom finish, we offer additional options such as stains, varnishes, clear coats, and marine paints.

Teak Cleaning

Teak’s natural oils make it resistant to rot and weather damage, eliminating the need for additional coatings. However, teak cleaning is essential to preserve either the natural honey blond or the desired silver-gray patina without applying a protective coating.

For a natural, unfinished look, we clean teak with a special solution to remove dirt, oxidation, black mold, and algae. We wash the wood by hand with soft brushes to protect the grain, followed by a wood brightener to restore its natural color.

For a silver, oxidized look, clean teak periodically to promote a uniform gray patina. We use a mild surface wash and brightener to eliminate dirt and mold while enhancing the wood’s silver tone. This maintenance helps ensure an even and graceful aging process.

Whether maintaining the original color or encouraging a weathered look, teak furniture cleaning is popular in coastal areas and enhances the beauty of any outdoor space.

Deck Refinishing

Decks are the focal point of outdoor living areas; however, constant exposure to the elements can leave your deck looking weathered. Our multistage deck refinishing  process restores your deck’s appearance and strengthens it against future wear and tear.

We begin by thoroughly cleaning the deck, removing dirt, algae, and any previous finishes that may be peeling or flaking. Once cleaned, we sand the wood to smooth out any rough areas and ensure the new finish adheres appropriately. We then apply a wood brightener to enhance the deck’s natural color and eliminate dust, mold, and mildew. Finally, we seal the deck with a penetrating oil-based sealer for a natural matte finish.

We use a thin sealer for deeper penetration on dense woods such as teak and ipe. Optionally, we can apply a stain for even coloring across the deck, ensuring a long-lasting and even finish. Regular deck refinishing improves the look of your outdoor space and extends the wood’s life.

Front Door Restoration

Our front door restoration process delivers exceptional quality and durability. We start by taking the door down to bare wood, using a stripping agent to remove layers of varnish or polyurethane if necessary. Once stripped, we sand the wood lightly to create a smooth surface. Typically, only the exterior requires refinishing due to sun and UV exposure, but we can match the interior if needed.

After staining the wood in your chosen color, we apply three coats of yacht-grade marine clear coat, sanding between each layer for a smooth, durable, furniture-grade finish. We perform all work on-site for convenience.

Garage Door Restoration

Wooden garage doors enhance a home’s beauty but can easily suffer from sun and weather damage, causing peeling, blistering, or fading. We restore them by stripping old coatings, either by sanding or using a light chemical remover, to expose fresh wood, paying careful attention to carvings and details. We apply multiple layers of stain or sealant with finish sanding between coats, resulting in a smooth, flawless finish.
