Wood Clean and Seal

The most crucial fact for any customer to be aware of is that expert expertise, talent, and expertise are required to properly care for wood to guarantee that the task is completed correctly. Untrained hands using a power washer's pressure can quickly do irreversible damage.

Wood and similar materials can be ruined by washing them at pressures of up to 3,000 PSI (pounds per square inch)! The most economical approach to receiving a wood clean and seal service is to choose a contractor with expertise, knowledge of the appropriate cleaners, and the necessary equipment. Using a reputable, knowledgeable contractor like Portland's Grime Busters is crucial.

Our Wood Clean and Seal Process in Portland

Step 1: Evaluation

The evaluation procedure is the initial stage in our Portland wood clean and seal service for recovering your deck, timber home, or other wood structures. With this, we can pinpoint your project's exact requirements to bring its natural beauty back. We offer to consult, gather measurements, and record the general state and current finishes used during this process. Additionally, we review our cleaning and preparation procedure and give you specimens of our natural finishes.

Step 2: Wood Restoration

This part of our wood clean and seal service will include paint removal and a thorough scrubbing of the wood, depending on the current state of your structure. Some coatings are fairly simple to remove, whereas others require several stages.

Deep cleaning is started to get rid of the mold, mildew, dirt, and other debris that accumulates on the surface of your wood if it has no finish and has merely naturally turned grey. During this procedure, the greying, dead wood fibers that develop on the surface of the wood are also eliminated to expose the wood's original appearance.

For your Portland property, Grime Busters uses several unique wood strippers and cleaners to achieve the best results.

Step 3: Wood Brightening and Neutralizing

The neutralizing of the cleansers and chemicals previously used is one of the most crucial elements of the overall wood clean and seal procedure. This balances the pH of the wood and removes tenacious tannin stains. Our specifically formulated brightening chemical is used to do this, and the strength can be changed for each project. After application, a final wash of the entire structure is performed, and a little rest time ensures the wood is prepared for sealing once dried.

Wood Staining and Sealing

The most satisfying part of our wood clean and seal service is sealing your wood, which is the last stage. With the help of our application system, we give your wood exactly what it needs to last! The quantity of sealer required for adequate protection varies depending on the Portland wood project. This is governed by the deck's age, type, and previous maintenance. Our professionals will apply your selected finish to adhere to the requirements we've established and those specified by the finish's manufacturer.
