Deck Refinishing & Staining in Oakville
UCO Construction Group refinishes, stains and restores decks and fences across Oakville. Every project on this page is a real job we completed here, with before and after photos.
Oakville yards share a few things: mature trees that keep wood shaded and damp, a lot of cedar privacy fences, and backyard pools where decks take sun and splash all summer. The jobs we are called for most often are pool decks with a solid stain that is peeling, cedar fences that have turned grey and streaked under the trees, and decks behind newer homes that were never stained and went grey within a few seasons.
We look at the wood first, decide whether it needs washing and sanding or sanding only, replace any boards that are past saving, and finish with a stain that soaks into the wood. Most Oakville deck and fence jobs are finished in one to two days.

Questions and answers
How much does deck refinishing cost in Oakville?
It depends on the size of the deck, the number of stairs and railings, the condition of the wood and how much old finish has to come off. We come out, look at the deck and give you a written quote.
My pool deck stain is peeling. Can it be fixed?
Yes. A peeling solid stain cannot be coated over, so we sand it off completely and refinish the deck with a stain that soaks into the wood and wears gradually. We did exactly this on an elevated pool deck in Oakville.
Can a grey cedar fence be brought back?
In most cases, yes. The grey is a weathered surface layer. Wood cleaner, washing, sanding and stain bring back the colour of the cedar, as long as the boards and posts are still solid.
Do you replace rotten deck boards before staining?
Yes. We cut out soft or split boards and replace them first, then sand the old and new boards together so the repair blends in once the deck is stained.
When is the best time to stain a deck in Oakville?
Late spring through early fall, on dry, mild days. The wood has to be dry before staining and needs dry weather afterwards to cure, so we plan staining days around the forecast.
Do you also work in Burlington, Mississauga and Milton?
Yes. We work across Oakville, Burlington, Mississauga, Milton and the rest of the GTA.
