Bring Your Old Deck Back to Life

Deck Restoration & Refinishing in Rhode Island

Don’t Tear It Down—Restore It

Professional Deck Refinishing for Wood Decks That Need a Second Life

Over time, even the best-built wood decks lose their color, texture, and protective finish. If your cedar or pressure-treated deck is looking gray, cracked, or rough, Alliance Deck Builders of Rhode Island offers full-service deck restoration that brings it back to life. We deep-clean, sand, repair, and re-stain using products designed for our local climate. Our restoration process makes old decks look new again—without the cost of a full rebuild.

More Than Just a Quick Pressure Wash

Our Complete Deck Refinishing Process

Restoring a deck takes more than a rinse and a new coat of stain. We begin with a deep clean to remove algae, dirt, and old finishes. Once the surface is dry, we sand the boards to remove rough patches, splinters, and discoloration. Next, we repair or replace any cracked or warped planks. Finally, we apply a protective stain or sealant matched to your deck’s wood type and your desired finish. It’s detailed work—and it shows.

  • Stripping & sanding for smooth finish

  • Repairs for damaged or splintered boards

  • Sealants or stains matched to Rhode Island weather

Don’t Replace—Revive

Restore the Deck You Already Love

If your deck frame is still solid, a restoration may be all you need to enjoy it for another decade or more. We inspect the substructure and hardware to ensure your deck is safe, then focus on surface beauty and protection. Restoration is often the most budget-friendly option for homeowners with aging decks in otherwise good condition. Let us breathe new life into your backyard without tearing it down.

Experts in Cedar & Pressure-Treated Deck Refinishing

We specialize in restoring both cedar and pressure-treated decks throughout Rhode Island. Cedar requires gentle sanding and stains that highlight its grain, while pressure-treated wood benefits from water-based finishes and UV blockers. We know how to treat each board with the right technique and product, so your restored deck not only looks great—it lasts.

Finish Strong. Stay Protected.

Sealants That Stand Up to Rhode Island Weather

After restoration, protection is key. We use stains and sealants designed for Rhode Island’s humidity, freeze-thaw cycles, and sun exposure. Whether you prefer a rich, oiled look or a natural matte finish, we’ll help you choose a product that enhances the wood and shields it from moisture and UV rays. With proper maintenance, your restored deck will keep its look and strength for years to come.

Whether your deck is 5 years old or 25, we’ll help it look and feel like new.
