Deck Staining in Monument, CO

Colorado sun is brutal on wood. Big Blu's power washes, sands and re-stains cedar, redwood and pressure-treated decks with high-solids, UV-rated stains and sealers so your deck stops graying and splitting. In Monument we focus on Jackson Creek, Woodmoor, Kings Deer and surrounding neighborhoods.

Big Blu's stains and seals decks across Monument using high-solids, UV-rated finishes built for high-altitude sun. Colorado's thin air, intense UV and freeze-thaw cycles gray out and split unprotected wood faster than almost anywhere in the country, so prep matters more here: we power wash, brighten, let the boards dry to the right moisture content and sand rough grain before a drop of stain goes on. Then we brush and back-roll two coats into the wood instead of spraying and walking away. Semi-transparent, semi-solid and solid stains are all available, and we bring sample boards so you approve the color on your own deck in Monument light before we start.

Deck Staining Monument FAQ

How often should a deck be stained in Monument?
At Front Range altitude, plan on re-staining a Monument deck every two to three years. Full-sun and south-facing decks are closer to two; shaded decks can stretch to four.
Do you power wash before staining in Monument?
Always. Every Monument deck is washed, brightened and dried to the right moisture content before any stain goes down — staining over dirt is why finishes peel.
Semi-transparent or solid stain?
Semi-transparent keeps the grain visible and is our default for cedar in Monument. Solid stain is the better call on older, weathered or previously painted decks.
How long before I can use the deck?
Light foot traffic after about 24 hours and furniture back after 48, weather depending. We schedule Monument jobs around dry-weather windows.
