Canterbury’s Deck Painting Specialists
Decking Treatment and Stain
A penetrating deck stain or oil is the best option for sound timber. It penetrates the timber, feeds the fibres, and resists moisture ingress.
Canterbury Decorators clean decking thoroughly before treatment. Two coats of stain or oil are standard on bare or lightly weathered decking.
Anti-Slip Finishes
Decking in exposed or wet positions needs an anti-slip finish, particularly on step treads. We add non-slip aggregate to the finish coat where needed.
Marine-Grade Specification
We use marine-grade or high-flexibility exterior coatings on coastal properties. Marine-grade specification achieves a realistic three to five-year maintenance interval. Our exterior painting service covers the full exterior.
Painted Decking
Some decking suits a fully opaque painted finish. We use exterior-grade deck paint over a suitable primer for opaque finishes.
Combined Treatment
Where a property has decking, a fence, and shed all needing attention, we complete in a single visit. See our fence painting and shed painting pages.
