This deck was peeling, bubbling and holding water across every exposed section, just 18 months after a full strip-back and recoat from another company.
Some areas started peeling within the first few weeks. The inside edges, never exposed to sun and rain, were still intact. That’s the giveaway: this wasn’t a timber problem, it was a prep and product problem. Either moisture wasn’t removed from the timber before coating, or the product wasn’t suited to the exposure. Peeling that’s limited to sun and rain exposed faces only is the signature of bad prep, not bad wood.
We took it back to bare timber and started again. Two coats of Intergrain NaturalStain in Cypress, a system that won’t peel, flake or blister when the prep is done right. We made sure it was.
Owner is happy with the result and left us a great review. Swipe for the before and after.
