METRO DETROIT PAINTING CONTRACTOR
Flaking stain usually hides a bigger problem underneath. DLux Painting brings a construction background to every deck and fence project across Metro Detroit — checking boards and structure first, not just applying color.
WHAT'S INCLUDED
A stain job is only as good as what happens before it — cleaning, inspection, and repair matter more than the color you pick.
Full deck surfaces, railings, and stairs, prepped and stained to hold up through Michigan’s seasons.
Every panel and post treated with the same care as the largest deck.
Checked for rot, soft spots, and moisture damage first — damaged boards replaced before a drop of stain goes on.
Every surface cleaned of dirt, mildew, and old flaking stain before prep begins, so the new coat actually bonds.
Whether it’s a full deck-and-fence project or just one section, every job gets the same standard of inspection, cleaning, and prep before staining begins.

EXCELLENCE IN EVERY COAT
Sun-faded siding, peeling trim, a garage door that used to match the house — none of it happens overnight. It’s one freeze-thaw cycle at a time, and a missed gap or a soft spot of wood only gets worse the longer it’s ignored. Catching it early is what keeps a paint job simple and a repair bill small.
Part of Routine Maintenance
Restaining every 2–3 years, before flaking starts, means no board repair is needed — just stain. It costs far less, and you get to actually enjoy your deck instead of worrying about it.
Some Board Repair Becomes Necessary
Flaking stain left unaddressed lets moisture into the wood underneath. Replacing a few boards now is still far cheaper than repairing the structure underneath later.
Structural Repairs Before Stain
Rot spreads through the frame, not just the surface boards. Structural repair costs climb well past what staining alone would have cost.Your deck will take longer to finish and you will miss out on the short Michigan summers.
DLux Painting uses durable exterior coatings built to handle Michigan’s weather and hold their look for years, not just their first season.

WHAT HOMEOWNERS ASK BEFORE HIRING A DECK STAINING CONTRACTOR
“My deck’s flaking, but it’s not exactly at the top of my list right now — can it wait?”
It can, but not for free. Flaking stain lets moisture in immediately, even if the deck still looks fine day to day. A simple restain this year can turn into board repair next year, and structural repair the year after that. No pressure to book today — just worth knowing that waiting isn’t actually free, it’s deferred.
“Is a deck restain really worth it, or is it just cosmetic?”
It’s worth more than it looks like on the surface. A deck you’re proud of is one you actually use — for hosting, for family dinners outside, for the summer memories that only happen if you’re not avoiding the space. That’s worth more than the cost of a stain job.
“How do I know if my deck needs board repair or just a restain?”
That’s exactly what the consultation is for — Dan’s construction background means he can tell the difference between surface wear and structural damage before any work is scheduled, not after.

EXTERIOR PAINTING QUESTIONS
Pour a little water on the boards. If it beads up, the finish is still protecting the wood. If it soaks straight in, it’s time to restain.
Both protect the wood, but stain adds color while sealer stays clear. Dan walks through the right choice for your deck’s wood and the look you want at your consultation.
Most decks and fences need restaining every 2 to 3 years, depending on the stain type, sun exposure, and foot traffic.
EXCELLENCE IN EVERY COAT
Every homeowner deserves a painting contractor who shows up, respects the property, and delivers on the promise. No pressure. No obligation. Just book your free consultation and Dan will respond the same day to schedule your project.
