a gate does not swing, latch or sit as intended. Prepare the accepted sound surface and apply the agreed compatible deck-coating system in its required stages.
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: weather exposure and ordinary surface deterioration or an aged coating, stain or finish that needs preparation before maintenance.
The selected system may require more than one stage with drying between applications. Follow the product sequence instead of treating an extra thick coat as equivalent. Access and weather need to support those stages before scheduling is confirmed.
Cleaning and suitable ordinary preparation depend on the existing coating and selected system. Discuss any required sanding separately. Unknown hazardous coatings are excluded, and a broad promise to remove every old finish would exceed the accepted handyman scope.
Observe the coating’s cure and return-to-use instructions. This service does not provide slip-resistance certification or repair structural deck defects. Limits: Compatible film coatings on sound accessible timber only. No slip certification, hazardous stripping, structural repairs or waterproofing-system claims.
