Salt Lake City Deck Refinishing
Professional deck refinishing services designed for Salt Lake City's unique climate. UV protection, weather resistance, and lasting beauty.
Deck Refinishing for Salt Lake City Homes
Salt Lake City's climate presents unique challenges for deck maintenance. With intense UV exposure from high altitude, temperature swings from hot summers to snowy winters, and low humidity that accelerates wood drying, your deck needs specialized care.
Our deck refinishing services are specifically designed for Salt Lake City conditions. We use UV-resistant stains and sealers that protect against sun damage, weather-resistant coatings that handle temperature extremes, and moisture barriers that prevent snow and ice damage.
With over 15 years serving Salt Lake County homeowners, we understand local building codes, permit requirements, and the specific challenges posed by our mountain climate. See examples of our work in our before and after gallery.
Why SLC Decks Need Professional Refinishing
High UV Exposure
At 4,226 feet elevation, Salt Lake City receives intense UV radiation that rapidly degrades unprotected wood. Our UV-resistant finishes provide maximum protection.
Temperature Extremes
From summer heat exceeding 100°F to winter temperatures below 0°F, SLC decks endure extreme conditions. We use flexible coatings that expand and contract with the wood.
Low Humidity
Utah's desert climate causes rapid moisture loss, leading to cracking and splitting. Our deep-penetrating sealers lock in moisture and prevent damage.
Snow Load Concerns
Heavy snow accumulation requires proper drainage and structural integrity. We inspect for snow damage and ensure proper water runoff to prevent ice buildup.
