Wood Staining & Refinishing
Sanding and staining for cedar, beams and West Coast modern homes
West Coast modern homes lean on natural wood: cedar siding, exposed beams, tongue and groove soffits. When that wood greys or the old stain starts to fail, a fresh coat on top will not hold for long.
We sand back to bare wood before any stain goes on, so the new finish soaks in evenly and the grain reads clean. We handle interior and exterior wood, from entry doors and beams to decks and full cedar walls.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Why sand to bare wood instead of staining over the old finish?
Stain needs to soak into the wood. Old stain, greyed fibres and failing coatings block that, so new stain over them looks blotchy and wears off sooner. Sanding to bare wood gives an even, lasting result.
When is the best time to stain exterior cedar in Vancouver?
The wood needs to be dry and the forecast needs a dry stretch, which usually means late spring through early fall. We plan exterior staining around the weather so the stain can cure properly.
Can you match the stain colour I already have?
Usually, yes. Aged and new wood take stain differently, so we test on site before committing and adjust until the colour works with the rest of the house.
