Deck repair + solid-color stain

120-Year-Old Home — Deck Restored

After restoring the exterior of this historic Terrell home, Daltonn’s Painting & Handyman Services returned to finish the deck. The project addressed damaged step boards, a worn existing finish, and the preparation needed before the new stain could be applied.

The project

A return visit to finish the outdoor space.

After restoring the exterior of this historic Terrell home, Daltonn’s Painting & Handyman Services returned to finish the deck. The project addressed damaged step boards, a worn existing finish, and the preparation needed before the new stain could be applied.

The repaired and refinished deck now reads as one connected outdoor space around the home, covered seating area, walkway, and garden.

Work completed

The repair came before the finish.

Rather than covering the visible wear, the project addressed the damaged step boards and prepared the deck surfaces before the new solid-color stain was applied.

  • Replaced damaged step boards
  • Sanded and prepared the deck surfaces
  • Applied a high-quality solid-color stain
  • Completed the deck as a return project after the exterior restoration
