How to Clean and Restain a Deck | This Old House

This Old House general contractor Tom Silva breathes new life into a weather-beaten wood deck. (See below for a shopping list and tools.) SUBSCRIBE to This Old House: http://bit.ly/SubscribeThisOldHouse Tom helps a homeowner clean his dirty, weather-beaten mahogany deck and prepare it for staining. First, Tom sprayed regular water over the entire deck so that detergent wouldn't get absorbed into the wood. Next, using a garden-type pump sprayer, Tom sprayed a biodegradable detergent and water mixture onto the deck, scrubbed it with a stiff brush, and rinsed it with a garden hose. With the entire deck cleaned, Tom applied a borate to prevent any future growth of mildew. Next, Tom left the homeowner to apply a mixture of stain and polyurethane to add color and protect the deck against the weather. Later, up in the loft, Tom showed Kevin some other options for staining and sealing a wooden deck.
