Deck restoration in Mount Pleasant starts with knowing the housing: suburban subdivisions from the 1970s through today on generous lots. That means original builder decks now 20 to 40 years old, which changes the prep more than the stain.
Mount Pleasant sits along the Root River, and the tree cover that comes with it keeps decks and fences damp longer in the morning. We schedule washes early in the week so the wood has time to dry before stain goes on.
The reason so many decks look bad is that each new coat went over the last failed one. Stain does not stick to stain that is letting go. Restoration resets the deck to bare wood so the new finish bonds to the grain, not to a flaking layer underneath it. Done right, it is the last time the deck needs anything more than a maintenance coat for years.

If the finish is peeling, flaking or cracking, or if a previous stain went on blotchy, it needs stripping. If the deck is just gray or dirty with no failing coating, cleaning and staining is enough.
Yes. Paint and solid stain are the hardest to strip and often need sanding as well. It takes longer, and the result is worth it: bare wood that takes a proper penetrating finish.
