Their process of making doors new again:
1. Strip Existing Door – Temperature and humidity fluctuations, exposure to the elements and damaging UV from the sun can destroy a door’s finish. In order to restore a door to its original beauty, the door must first be stripped down to naked wood or fiberglass.
2. Sand to perfection – with the old finish removed, the door is prepped to receive a new finish. This is done through meticulous sanding to remove blemishes from the old coat. Damaged areas are repaired. The surface is then cleared thoroughly to remove all residue, oils and dust.
3. Stain Door – A new coat of stain is applied to the raw door to restore the vibrant natural look. They use high quality stains such as Old Masters, Mohawk and General finishes.
4. Marine Grade Finish – They seal all of their doors with at least 5 coats of a high-build, top quality, marine grade varnish which contains UV filters. This is equal to roughly 10 coats of a traditional varnish. Then they apply a high quality finish coat. This results in a marine grade finish that will withstand the constant beating of the elements.
