What's Included in St. Vital Deck Staining
Every St. Vital deck job includes more than a coat of stain. what's in the scope:
- Full prep, strip the old finish, sand, and brighten the wood so the new stain penetrates deeply.
- Repairs, we replace popped boards, tighten loose fasteners, and address rot before sealing anything over.
- Premium penetrating stain, Sikkens or TWP, not hardware-store deck paint. These flex with the freeze-thaw cycle instead of cracking.
- Two coats on the deck floor, the surface that takes the most abuse gets two full coats. Stairs and railings get a careful second coat where needed.
- Cleanup, we haul away debris, sweep the deck, and leave your yard as we found it.
We also offer deck sanding & restoration ($600–$2,000) for grey, weathered decks; fence staining & painting ($300–$1,200) for the fences around St. Vital Park; and deck cleaning & power washing ($150–$400) as a standalone service.

The St. Vital Difference
St. Vital isn't like other parts of Winnipeg. The Seine River valley bottom sits low and damp, so cool air settles along the river and the hillsides. For decks on the north side of a house, or shaded by the mature elms and oaks that line many St. Vital streets, that dampness means heavier moss and mildew pressure. We see it constantly: a deck that looks "fine" from the kitchen window is actually carrying a green film that will eat a fresh stain in one season.
The fix is a wood brightener applied before staining, plus a stain that resists mildew. We don't just paint over the problem.
St. Vital also has a lot of older homes, many built in the 1950s and 60s, with pressure-treated decks that have gone well past their stain cycle. The wood is grey, cracked, and thirsty. A simple "one coat and done" job will not last a full season. We sand, restore, and seal, and we'll tell you honestly if your deck needs more than a basic stain.
Our Process
1. Free quote, We'll visit your St. Vital deck within 48 hours, walk it with you, and give you a fixed price.
2. Assessment, We inspect board condition, fasteners, drainage, and how much moisture is trapped in the wood. We'll tell you if a stain is enough or if you need sanding and restoration.
3. Prep, We strip, sand, brighten, and repair. This is where most deck jobs fail, and it's where we don't cut corners.
4. Stain, We apply two coats of Sikkens or TAK penetrating stain, with extra care on stairs and railings.
5. Walkthrough, You inspect the finished deck before we leave. If something's not right, we fix it.
Why Choose Us
We're a deck-only crew. We don't paint houses, wallpaper rooms, or juggle three trades. Decks are all we do, every deck in Winnipeg fights the same fight: freeze-thaw winters, gumbo clay, UV summer, and everything in between. We've seen every mistake a deck can throw at us, and we know how cedar, pine, and pressure-treated wood behave in Manitoba's climate.
We use premium penetrating stains, not film-forming paints. In Winnipeg, where the temperature swings 60°C between January and July, a film paint will crack and peel in a season. A penetrating stain soaks into the wood and flexes with it. That's the difference between a deck that looks good for a year and one that lasts for years.
We're also a small crew. You get the people who do the actual work, not a call centre. And we stand behind it, if there's an issue, we come back and fix it.
