Straight answers
Deck restoration FAQ.
Why does deck stain peel?
Film coatings lose adhesion to moisture, UV, and weather — recoating over a failing surface makes it worse.
Do you remove the old coating?
Yes. We strip and sand back to bare wood so the oil soaks in properly.
What does restoration cost?
Every deck is different. After a free site visit, you get a clear written quote — valid for 30 days.
Can you restore a badly peeling deck?
Often, yes — if the wood underneath is sound enough to strip and sand.
What happens after restoration?
A timely maintenance coat avoids another full strip. We recommend the right window for your deck.
Do you offer free estimates?
Yes — free on-site estimates across Niagara and Hamilton.
Are you insured?
Yes, Fxit Handy Services is fully insured.
