The stain color your HOA approves, applied to a deck that is clean, dry and ready for it.
About / Value Proposition
In Windward, Crabapple, and many other Alpharetta communities, the HOA approves exterior colors, and a deck stain can fall under that review. Before we open a can, we confirm the approved colors with you and handle the paperwork for a change, for a new color or for a switch from semi-transparent to solid stain. Then comes the usual work: wash the boards, fix what's loose, wait for dry wood, and stain in the late-spring-through-fall window, when humidity and pollen allow a proper cure.
Our deck staining comes with a 5-year workmanship warranty.

How we work
An HOA-aware deck staining process for Alpharetta homes, from the approval to the final coat.
We look at the deck, note the current finish, confirm your HOA's approved stain colors, and hand you an itemized quote.
We help with the color approval if you're changing it, then wash the deck, fix loose boards, and let the wood dry.
The approved stain goes on in even coats, and we walk the finished deck with you.
Brands We Trust
We work with industry-leading paints and materials for a durable, high-quality finish.
“The bitterness of poor quality remains long after the sweetness of low price is forgotten.”

Many Alpharetta communities have active HOAs with approved exterior color palettes. We match the spec and handle the approvals. Humid summers and spring pollen make late spring through fall the best time for exterior painting.
Residential work is permitted through the City of Alpharetta, and HOA approval is often required before exterior color changes. Deck Staining projects rarely need a permit on their own, but we confirm before scheduling so nothing stalls mid-job.
Yes. We cover all of Alpharetta and the surrounding Fulton County, including Downtown Alpharetta, Avalon, Windward, Crabapple, in ZIP codes 30004, 30005, 30009, 30022. Send us your address and we'll confirm the schedule for your area.
The size of the deck, how many railings and stairs it has, the condition of the wood, and whether old stain has to come off first set the price. The estimate is free and itemized, with cleaning, repairs, and stain on separate lines.
Transparent and semi-transparent stains soak into the wood and let the grain show. Solid stain covers more like paint and hides worn boards, patches, and old color. On an older deck with mismatched boards, solid usually looks best; on newer wood with good grain, semi-transparent shows it off.
It depends on sun, shade, and foot traffic. Floor boards and stair treads wear first, and railings hold up longer. When water stops beading on the boards or the color looks washed out, a maintenance coat brings the deck back for less than starting over.
Every time. Stain only bonds to clean, dry wood, so the deck is washed to remove dirt, mildew, and the gray layer of weathered fibers, then left to dry completely before any stain goes on.
Section / About
We've worked on Alpharetta homes for more than ten years, and plenty of deck projects here start with the HOA's color list. We bring that list into the estimate, so the color question is settled before the work is scheduled.
Going from semi-transparent to solid stain, or from one color to a darker one, sounds like a small change. It still needs clean, dry wood and, in many communities, an approval on file. We take care of both, so your Alpharetta deck looks right and stays within the rules.
