A Lasting Deck Finish Starts With Prep

Sherwood Painting Services is a family-owned contractor providing deck staining and sealing in Mooresville, NC. Our service includes washing, surface preparation, old stain stripping when needed, and staining or sealing deck boards, railings, and spindles. We put the scope, products, price, schedule, and warranty terms in writing before work begins.

When old stain peels and bare patches spread, another coat alone won't give you an even finish. We assess the existing coating and wood condition first. Then we explain the preparation your deck needs and the finish it can support.

Clean wood before fresh stain

We wash the deck, strip old stain where needed, and address rough areas before coating. We allow the wood to dry and plan application around suitable weather and product instructions. Railings and spindles receive the same careful attention as the boards underfoot.

Choose a finish that suits your deck

Semi-transparent stain keeps the grain visible. Solid color stain gives the boards a more uniform color. Clear wood sealer offers minimal color change, though sun protection varies by product.

We also work with penetrating oil stain and deck restoration coating where the wood condition and existing finish allow. A restoration coating does not replace sound wood. We'll explain which option fits your deck before you choose.

Our product choices include Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore, and Dulux, with the specific product named in your estimate. Our deck staining and sealing service page explains the broader scope of this work.

Respect for your home, every day

We protect nearby surfaces and belongings, discuss access and pets before starting, and clean up at the end of each day. You'll know when you can use your deck again based on the selected product's drying requirements.

Based on Sandy Shore Drive in Mooresville, we also provide deck staining and sealing in Davidson, Troutman, and Cornelius. Check our service areas for other communities we serve. Financing through GreenSky is available for larger projects.

We had an absolutely incredible experience with Sherwood Painting! From start to finish, their team was prompt, professional, and extremely organized. They painted our entire first floor and staircase in just three days—and the quality of the work is outstanding.

What stood out the most was how clean and respectful they were throughout the entire process. At the end of each day, everything was consolidated and tidied up so nothing was ever in our way. It made having painters in our home feel effortless.

Every detail was handled with care, and their attention to cleanliness/ protecting our furniture and lighting as well as organization truly set them apart. We couldn’t be happier with how everything turned out—our home looks brand new. Highly recommend Sherwood Painting to anyone looking for efficient, high-quality work with top-notch professionalism!

    We gave Sherwood a challenging prospect, take a 4000+ square foot home in New construction builder white and beige colors and turn the whole place black,grey,and wine red. They came through with 5 star service. Communication was great, the painters were respectful of personal property and even made sure our pets were kept safe during the process. I couldn't recommend them enough.

    In short, 100% recommend. Pricing was extraordinarily fair with a very detailed estimate. Paint is provided without mark-up and extra was left behind for any future needs. They have a 5 year warranty (unheard of in my experience with house painting). Communication was clear and any questions were answered within hours. Lastly I need to add that we were actually out of town during the time they painted our house and provided daily status photos and when we did arrive back home are absolutely over the moon with the quality of work and attention to detail.
