Deck Refinishing
Deck Refinishing Services in Central Florida
Your deck is more than just wood—it’s an extension of your home, a place for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying the Florida sunshine. But between UV rays, rain, foot traffic, and daily use, even the most well-built decks begin to fade, warp, or wear out over time.
At Black Rhino Painting, we specialize in full-service deck refinishing that restores beauty, extends lifespan, and enhances the usability of your outdoor living space. With over 20 years of hands-on experience serving Central Florida homeowners, we understand what it takes to protect and refresh your deck—whether it’s wood, composite, or previously painted.
What Is Deck Refinishing?
Deck refinishing is the process of cleaning, repairing, sanding, staining, and sealing your deck to restore its appearance and preserve its structure. Unlike basic pressure washing or painting, refinishing penetrates and protects the wood—improving durability while bringing out the natural grain and color.
It’s not just a cosmetic upgrade—it’s essential maintenance that helps avoid bigger problems like rot, splintering, or structural decay.
Signs Your Deck Needs Refinishing
Not sure if it’s time to refinish your deck? Look for these common indicators:
Faded or discolored wood
Splintering or rough patches
Water no longer beads on the surface
Mildew or mold buildup
Peeling paint or old, patchy stain
Visible cracks, soft spots, or nail pops
If your deck shows any of these signs—or it’s been more than 2–3 years since your last refinishing—Black Rhino Painting can help.

The Benefits of Professional Deck Refinishing
Investing in professional commercial painting services offers numerous advantages:
Improves Safety
Decks that suffer from splintering, rotting wood, or loose boards pose a serious risk to your family and guests. Our refinishing process smooths out sharp edges, replaces weakened boards, and reinforces any unstable structure.
Extends the Life of Your Deck
Wood naturally deteriorates when exposed to UV rays, moisture, and temperature changes. By applying high-quality stains and water-repellent sealers, we help lock out these damaging elements.
Boosts Curb Appeal & Property Value
A clean, richly stained deck instantly enhances your home’s exterior and creates a more welcoming, polished appearance.
Prevents Costly Repairs
Refinishing isn’t just cosmetic—it’s proactive maintenance. Addressing minor issues like discoloration, surface mildew, or early signs of decay helps you avoid expensive structural repairs or full deck replacements in the future.
