deck sanding can be appropriate when an accessible board, rail, gate fitting or timber surface shows wear, movement or a damaged finish. Review board condition, remaining thickness and coating suitability before agreeing a sanding method and the next finish.
Signs: an accessible board, rail, gate fitting or timber surface shows wear, movement or a damaged finish or a gate does not swing, latch or sit as intended. Causes: an aged coating, stain or finish that needs preparation before maintenance or loose compatible fixings or local timber wear.
Railings, posts, corners and fixed furniture affect tool access. Include these in the dimensions and photographs. Hand-detail work around obstructions can change the scope, while inaccessible areas should be identified before assuming the entire deck can receive identical preparation.
Discuss nearby doors, plants and occupied spaces before sanding. Appropriate containment and collection depend on the site and accepted material. This ordinary preparation service does not include hazardous dust remediation or work on a coating whose safety has not been established.
Prepare and sand accepted sound boards with appropriate abrasive stages and dust control, within the agreed accessible area. Limits: Sound ordinary accessible boards only. No structural restoration, rot concealment, hazardous coating removal, asbestos or specialist dust remediation.
