We use the best stains and other refinishing products to get the best results for your redwood, cedar, or other natural wood shingles Our work is showcased on homes just like yours all over Marin County.
Some of What We Do to Protect Your Investment in Your Home:
Prepare the deck: First, we thoroughly clean the deck and remove any dirt, debris, or old stain. This can be done using a power washer or a deck professional-grade cleaning solution.
Sand the deck: After we clean the deck and let it dry, the next step is to sand it down to remove any rough spots or splinters. This will also help the new stain adhere better. We also sand the railings for the best results. We then sand railing caps, set nails, and replace rotten or split wood as needed.
Choose the stain: There are many different types of deck stains available, so it’s important to choose one that is appropriate for your specific deck material and Marin area climate. We have access to the best products on the market and can help you choose the best treatment for your deck in the color you like.
Apply the stain: Once the deck is prepped and the stain is chosen, it’s time to apply the stain. We have many years of experience with this and here is where we shine. To make sure everything is covered completely we may use a brush, roller, and sprayer to apply the stain evenly.
Let it dry: After applying the stain, it’s important to let it dry completely before walking on the deck or putting any furniture back in place. This usually takes around 24-48 hours.
Apply a second coat (optional): Depending on the type of stain used and the desired color intensity, we may choose to apply a second coat of stain after the first has dried.

We found Blaine online on YELP. He has been in business for over 25 years and is extremely knowledgeable. His crew was extremely professional, hard working and cleaned up beautifully each day. We live in a 1920's brown shingle which faces South. The shingles were extremely dry and buckling in the front. Nor-Cal beautifully restored the shingles and recommended a darker stain than I originally imagined - it absorbs the UV better and the trim pops. Its beautiful. We also had our trim and windows painted, deck and railing stained and Blaine threw in a side fence for free!
Highest recommendation. 5 stars.

I used Nor-Cal to clean and refinish my IPE deck. Blaine and his crew are excellent. My deck was brought back to its original look. I would recommend Nor-Cal and their pricing is very good.

Testimonial
We’ve already told you many times how happy we are with the restoration you accomplished on our darkened, cedar-shake home. The sides and decks are now truly beautiful, and we’re very pleased with color blend you were able to achieve. We’re also aware that Blaine’s climbing skills made it possible to do the entire job without scaffolding, even on our steep slope. Truly remarkable, and quite a cost saving for us! One of the best compliments we’ve received is that all our neighbors think it looks very good. Needless to say, we will be delighted to recommend your work to anyone that might inquire. Please simply tell them to drive by our house any time and see for themselves. Thanks again.
Sincerely, Herb and Janet Peterson
