Eden Park property context
An occupied Eden Park property may need preparation before deck staining can begin. Send photos of the existing finish, exposed board faces, edges, previous coating and the deck in current weather conditions. Mention rooms that need to remain usable and identify who can agree the scope and arrange entry. A useful Eden Park enquiry identifies the affected room or outdoor area, explains what has changed and includes wide and close photographs. Measurements and access notes help separate urgent repairs from work that can be grouped into a later visit.
