What Is Mahogany Deck Restoration?
Contents
Deck restoration means applying proven refinishing techniques to bring back the look and texture of your deck. Without proper attention and left unprotected, decks will weather gray in color and the grain will lift. Decks are rare and require years of hands-on experience gathering knowledge and finding the best ways to perform deck refinishing projects. That’s why homeowners, contractors, and designers throughout Southern California choose to hire the most experienced and only licensed deck restoration company, Teak Master.
Teak Master’s Mahogany Deck Restoration Process
Our mahogany deck restoration process begins with a free on-site assessment of your deck. If your deck has weathered to a ghastly gray color, not to worry. Mahogany is as resilient as a Teak wood deck and does not rot or decay even left unprotected. Our process begins with cleaning to remove dirt and debris and preps for sanding. Sanding is an important step that takes off a small layer of wood leaving the surface smooth and brand new. It also allows the protective coating to adhere to the wood evenly and correctly. After sanding, the wood will be cleaned and brightened to restore color. A protective coating will be applied to the wood when it is fully dry. Our coatings add natural protection and penetrate deep into the wood’s surface. The result is a beautiful magnified grain and matte finish.
Sealing New Decks
New decks should be sealed without delay after construction has finished. The unforgiving effects of sun and rain can change the color and texture of your new deck in just a few days. Our process for sealing new decks begins by cleaning the wood’s surface with a mild solution to eliminate tannins and even color. After the wood had dried completely, it is ready for its protective coating. We apply time-tested sealers specifically formulated for Mahogany. The sealer will penetrate deep into the wood. The natural grain of the wood will be enhanced and the wood’s surface will dry matte. Periodic maintenance will be needed to keep the beautiful appearance of the wood.
Maintenance Program
Annual maintenance is the best way to preserve the look of your deck and is an integral part of Teak Master’s deck service. The natural oils in the wood gradually fade over the course of a year. We begin our process by gently cleaning the wood’s surface. The wood will be re-coated to add the natural oils back into the wood leaving it with a brand new appearance. In about a year, you will receive an email and postcard reminding you it is time to reseal. Most deck maintenance projects can be done in just one day and ready to use the following day.
How Much Does it Cost to Restore a Mahogany Deck?
Costs vary depending on the condition of the wood. Cost factors to consider are how old the deck is and the level of restoration needed. Many decks need simple cleaning and sanding to bring them back to life. Some decks require a previous coating that may need to be chemically removed and may result in a slightly higher cost. No matter what your budget is, will work with you to find the most efficient technique and price to bring your deck investment back to life.
Mahogany Deck Refinishing FAQs
How often should a mahogany deck be refinished in Southern California?
Plan on refinishing every 12 to 24 months. Full sun or coastal exposure may require service closer to 12 months.
Which coatings work best on mahogany?
Use a high-quality penetrating oil sealer. Film-forming finishes are not recommended on horizontal decking because they can peel.
Do you have to sand mahogany before resealing?
Yes. Light sanding levels lifted grain, removes failed residue, and opens the pores so the sealer penetrates evenly.
Will coastal sun and salt change the maintenance schedule?
Yes. Salt air and UV accelerate weathering. Coastal decks typically need cleaning and re-sealing more frequently.
How long does a typical project take and when can I use the deck?
Most projects complete in one to two days. Expect light foot traffic after 24 hours and full use after 48 to 72 hours.
Can you match my existing color or change the tone?
Yes. We provide test samples on your deck boards and can match the current tone or shift to a new shade.
