Deep cleaning & brightening
We strip away moss, mildew, and grey weathering to reveal the sound wood underneath.
Before you replace a whole fence, let us look at it. Cleaning, minor repairs, and a fresh seal can bring a grey, tired fence back to life for a fraction of the cost of tearing it out.
A weathered fence has a way of dragging down the look of an otherwise well-kept yard. Grey, mossy boards, a few leaning pickets, green growth on the shaded side — it reads as neglect even when the rest of the property is sharp. The good news is that most aging fences don't need replacing. They need restoring.
DeckMasters restores fences that still have good bones. We clean off years of grime and biological growth, brighten the wood back toward its natural tone, handle minor repairs, and seal everything to protect it going forward. In most cases the result is a fence that looks a decade younger — without the cost and disruption of a full tear-out and rebuild.
We strip away moss, mildew, and grey weathering to reveal the sound wood underneath.
We address loose pickets, popped fasteners, and small trouble spots as part of the restoration.
Restoring a structurally sound fence costs far less than tearing it out and building new.
We finish with a protective coat so the restored fence resists the moisture that caused the damage.
A restored fence lifts the look of the entire yard and frames the property cleanly again.
Cleaning and sealing resets the clock, adding years before replacement is ever on the table.
If a few of these sound like your project, it's worth a free look. Some are cosmetic; others are the early warning signs of damage that gets more expensive the longer it waits.
Straightforward, tidy, and communicative from the first call to the final walkthrough.
We check whether the structure is sound and what it'll take to bring it back — honestly.
We remove moss, mildew, and grey weathering to expose fresh, sound wood.
We re-secure loose pickets and fasteners and handle minor fixes along the run.
We apply a protective finish so the restored fence stays looking good and sheds water.
Our first job on any fence restoration is to tell you the truth about whether it's worth saving. If the posts are rotted at the base and the whole thing is failing, we'll say so. But a surprising number of 'replace it' fences just need a good cleaning, a few repairs, and a seal — and that's exactly the work we love doing.
Restoration is cleaning, light carpentry, and finishing all in one visit, handled by a single licensed and insured crew. You get a fence that looks cared for again without the price tag or the week-long disruption of a rebuild.
If the posts and framework are structurally sound, restoration is almost always the better value. We'll assess it honestly and only recommend replacement if the structure is genuinely failing.
Typically deep cleaning and brightening, minor repairs like re-securing loose pickets and fasteners, and a protective seal or stain. We tailor the scope to what your fence actually needs.
It varies with length and condition, so we provide a free, itemized quote after inspecting it. Restoration is generally a fraction of replacement cost.
In most cases, yes. Cleaning and brightening removes the grey weathering and moss, and a fresh seal or stain restores color and protection. The before-and-after is often dramatic.
Both. Minor repairs — loose pickets, popped fasteners, small trouble spots — are part of a proper restoration. If we find larger structural issues, we'll flag them before starting.
