Deck & Timber Staining.Done Right.

Outdoor timber decks, pergolas, and screening take a beating from Victorian sunshine, rain, and foot traffic. Left unprotected, timber dries out, greys, and develops surface splintering. We restore outdoor timber properly: deep cleaning to extract tannins and dead grey wood fibres, mechanical sanding to open the timber grain, and multiple coats of premium penetrating oil or UV-blocking decking stain. We also restore solid timber architectural features including front entrance doors, timber cladding, verandah posts, and handrails. The result is rich, warm timber colour and long-lasting protection that sheds water effortlessly. Whether your deck is brand new and needs tannin leaching and initial sealing, or an older weathered deck requiring complete strip-back and re-coating, we bring out the best in natural timber.

How It Runs

From First CallTo Handover.

How a typical deck & timber staining job runs, start to finish.

Timber assessment

We check timber condition, board stability, and whether the wood needs simple re-oiling or full sanding.

Deep clean and sand

Timber is chemically cleaned to strip contaminants and sanded flat along the grain.

Stain and oil application

Two to three coats of premium decking oil or stain worked deep into the wood grain.

Curing and inspection

We verify even coverage across every board and advise on curing time before furniture is returned.

"We recently renovated our home and were looking for a reliable, quality house painter. We put our trust into Zabi and he did not disappoint at all. The paint on our walls is flawless, the workmanship is top notch and I highly recommend him!"

"We recently renovated our property and required the second storey of our house repainted, as well as our stairs and balustrades. Having dealt with numerous painters during this renovation, we have to acknoweldge that Zabi's workmanship was second to none. Great character and great attention to detail. Highly reccomend him!"

"Zabi repainted our whole weatherboard exterior and the prep was what impressed me most. Every board was scraped and sanded properly before any paint went on. The house looks new again and the edges around the windows are spotless."

Karen WilkinsHighton

"Roof came up really well. Cleaning and two membrane coats over three days. The start got pushed a day because of rain, which was annoying, but Zabi kept me posted and the finish is even. Would use again."

Steve DoddTorquay

"We had cracks in the render patched and the whole front re-coated. You cannot tell where the repairs were, which was exactly what we hoped for. Clear written quote, no extras at the end."

Priya NairGeelong

"Painted the bare brick on our place and talked us through the decision properly before starting, including that it is basically permanent. Sealed first, then two coats into every mortar joint. It has completely changed the front of the house."

Mark and Lisa TownsendQueenscliff

"Garage interior and the new extension sprayed. The masking was next level, plastic and tape everywhere, and the finish has no roller marks at all. Quick job too."

Domenic RussoColac

"Booked a pressure wash of the driveway, paths and back patio before we listed the house. Years of grime gone in a morning. The real estate agent thought we had re-laid the driveway."

Sarah McLeodPortarlington

"Old flaky paint stripped back on the front verandah and repainted. Messy job, handled well, and it took a day longer than first estimated because of how bad the old layers were. End result is worth it."

Tom WhelanBannockburn
Direct

"Sprayed the interior of our new build before we moved in. Ceilings and walls done in days with a finish we could not have got with a roller. Everything was covered and taped, no overspray anywhere."

Fatima RahimiMelbourne

"Our cottage cops the salt air and the old paint was chalking badly. Zabi explained what the coast does to coatings and used an exterior system suited to it. Boards were washed, sanded, spot primed and two top coats. Very happy."

Common Enquiries

Questions AboutDeck & Timber Staining.

Straightforward answers to the questions we get asked most often.

In coastal Victoria, decks exposed to full sun typically benefit from a maintenance coat every 12 to 18 months, while sheltered timber can last 2 to 3 years. Regular maintenance prevents the need for heavy sanding in the future.
