Home Improvement

TT did some hard work last month refinishing the deck, so I'm showing it off for him.

Before...

After cleaning ...

After!


Looks nice, doesn't it? We got a quote of $500 to refinish it and I think it was just $100 in supplies and hard labor to do it ourselves. :)

Chris, the stuff I used was Cabot Semi-Solid Oil-Based Deck Stain. Let me know if you have any questions. It can be confusing, but I have found some good references.
