Wood Assessment
We inspect all wood surfaces for rot, mildew, splitting, and previous finish condition. Damaged boards are flagged for replacement before staining. Yorkville homes built in the 1860s heritage + 2000s luxury era have specific quirks we always check for during our initial visit.
Power Washing
All surfaces are power washed to remove dirt, graying, mildew, and old stain residue. Wood brightener is applied if needed to restore the natural color. Homes near Bloor-Yorkville BIA often share similar prep needs, and our crew knows exactly what to expect.
Sanding & Repairs
Rough spots are sanded smooth, loose nails are secured, and small repairs are made. The goal is a clean, sound surface ready to absorb stain evenly. In Yorkville, this step is especially important for designer residences dealing with heritage townhouse restoration.
Stain Application
One or two coats of premium stain (Benjamin Moore Arborcoat or Cabot) applied by brush and back-rolled for deep, even penetration into the wood grain. The conditions along Yorkville Avenue and throughout Yorkville inform which products and techniques we choose.
Plant Protection & Cleanup
Surrounding plants and landscaping are protected throughout. Drop cloths are removed, the area is cleaned, and we do a final quality walkthrough. After working on designer residences throughout Yorkville, we know what local homeowners look for during the final review.

Deck & Fence Staining FAQ for Yorkville Homeowners
Answers to the questions we hear most often
When is the best time to stain a deck in Yorkville?
Having worked on designer residences and restored Victorian townhouses throughout Yorkville for 15 years, we can say confidently: late spring through early fall when temperatures are consistently above 10 degrees Celsius and rain is not expected for 48 hours after application. May through September is the sweet spot for Yorkville deck projects.
How often should I restain my deck?
This depends on the specific home, but for 1860s heritage + 2000s luxury designer residences near Hazelton Avenue, here is the general answer. Most Toronto decks need restaining every 2 to 3 years depending on sun exposure, foot traffic, and the type of stain used. Transparent stains need refreshing sooner than solid stains. We can assess your deck's current condition.
Do you power wash before staining?
Based on our experience along Hazelton Avenue and across Yorkville: always. Power washing removes dirt, graying, mildew, and old stain residue. It opens the wood pores for maximum stain penetration. We also apply wood brightener when needed to restore the natural wood tone.
What stain brands do you recommend?
Great question, and one we hear often from high-net-worth individuals, international buyers, luxury condo owners, design professionals in Yorkville. Benjamin Moore Arborcoat for most applications and Cabot Australian Timber Oil for hardwoods like ipe and mahogany. Both offer excellent UV protection, water resistance, and penetrating performance for Toronto's climate.
Can you stain a new deck?
Yes, but new pressure-treated wood needs to dry for 3 to 6 months before staining. We can assess your new deck's moisture level and recommend the best timing. Staining too early prevents proper penetration and adhesion. This is exactly why high-net-worth individuals, international buyers, luxury condo owners, design professionals in Yorkville keep coming back to us for repeat work.
Do you stain fences too?
Yes. We stain fences, pergolas, gazebos, railings, and all outdoor wood structures. Fence staining is often combined with deck work for a cohesive look and better pricing.
How much does deck staining cost in Yorkville?
Based on our experience along Hazelton Avenue and across Yorkville: deck staining in Yorkville typically ranges from $3 to $6 per square foot depending on deck size, condition, and stain type. A standard 200 square foot deck runs $600 to $1,200. Free estimates available.
What warranty do you offer on deck staining?
Our 2-year warranty covers stain adhesion and application quality. Combined with the manufacturer's product warranty, your deck is protected. We also provide maintenance recommendations to extend the life of your stain.
