www.southernhomedeck.com , featuring oil-based Ready Seal Water Sealant's on Wood Decks and Fences

I have written about the water sealant product for wood decks and fences called Ready Seal for several years. It is just a wonderful water sealant that looks beautiful! I love the natural appearance. The product comes in lightly tinted shades, as you can see on the color wheel below. Another thing that I like is that the product contains Linseed Oil. Linseed oil is a well known wood conditioner, used for thousands of years by Mariners on their wood boats. This is a wonderful wood conditioner, because when the wood dries, it encourages the wood grains to pull back upon themselves and make the wood more water-proof.

 Southern Home Wood Deck and Fence started using the product on wood decks and fences several years ago, and the product was rebuffed by big box stores, and not because it was not a good product. Ready Seal was a smaller company compared to Olympic and Thompson's, and they could not compete on the same scale, and it became a product only sold to the professionals. I have seen it from time to time, but it is hard to find. But, if you like a natural finsih- look for it!

When you want your wood deck or wood fence to look its very best!






Cleaning and Sealing a Wood Deck or Trellis is a lot of work! www.Southernhomewooddeck.com has been in Richmond, Virginia since 1987. In those many years we have seen what type of water-sealants and wood stains work best and last longest. So many questions arise, "What is the best water sealant to use on my wood deck?" "Which water-sealant or stain will last the longest on Pressure-treated wood?"
"Which Water-Sealant is the Best- Behr, Sherwin Williams, Ready Seal, Olympic, Cabot, Thompson's, CWF?" 

There are a lot of important decisions to make when spending good money when making a decision on what to use for protecting your wood. You want to make a good decision and not waste money on something that does not work very well. 

"Should I use oil-based water sealant, or should I use Acrylic water-sealants?"

SPRING Pressure-washing a Wood Deck! Olympic Elite oil-based Stain is an Excellent Sealant and Stain!

 www.southernhomedeck.com or www.powerwash5000.com



In Richmond, VA, or Cary, NC, customers depend on being offered high-quality water sealants that will last over time. Nobody wants to use a product that looks terrible after one year. Here, at Southern Home Wood Deck in Richmond, VA, or Cary, NC, our company uses nothing but the very best water sealants. We prefer oil-based products for durability and ones that contain Linseed oil to help strengthen wood-fibers. 

Olympic has been around since the late 1980s. We know because we have been around since that time period and Olympic was one of the few companies that offered water sealants for wooden decks at a time when few products existed.

Durability, a product that will hold up and look decent for at least three years is key. Olympic products hold up over time. (804) 585-8016, give us a call and we can discuss with you the differences between Olympic and other brands. We can explain how using oil-based products help to condition the wood and strengthen wood fibers.

Ready Seal Wood Water Sealant, one of the best around! Southern Home Wood Deck Cleaning, 804-585-8016



Southern Home Wood Deck Cleaning and Sealing, 

Richmond, VA 23225 (804)585-8016

Ready Seal brand water-sealant is one that has been offered in the Richmond, VA area for the past few years. I like this product a great deal more than many of the usual products sold in big box stores, because of the high content of Tung and Linseed oils!

Why does it even matter? Because Linseed Oil and Tung Oil are conditioners for new wood. They are natural oils that help strengthen new wood's natural fibers. They help strengthen the wood by causing the wood grains to pull together and moisture to dry on the outside of the wood. Many products lack these essential oils. 

If you worked with wood like our company, Southern Home, you would understand that with 30 years of experience, it is incumbent upon myself and my group of Wood Deck Cleaner's and Sealer's to make sure that our customers understand why we use Ready Seal brand water sealant. I am not paid to say this, but it truly is one of the very best sealant-stains that I use for this specific reason. The colors are a tiny bit more subdued, but the way in which the product repels water and gives the wood a noticeable healthy appearance- it speaks for itself!

Here are a few examples of the product. Please, visit our website at www.southernhomedeck.com.

How to Clean a Wooden Deck and The Ugliest Deck On The Planet.

I want you to take a look at the transformation that we made take place at Southern Home when we laboriously refinished a deck that had not been loved for fifteen years. Boards had to be replaced, mold and mildew had to be removed, old finish had to be stripped and removed. Broken pickets beneath the hand-rails needed to be repaired. What a job!

I am going to start with what the deck ended up looking like. But, you need to go back and see the previous pics where I show how Southern Home Wood Decks in Richmond, VA refinished one of the ugliest decks we have ever refinished. It was a crew of three men, "T-Roy", "Calvin Sallie" and myself, Todd Sowell. 

Nobody, and I mean nobody, has talent like these guys, just look!




After the deck was cleaned and all of the rotten boards were replaced, Southern Home's crew stained the surface and rails to bring the customer the beautiful picture at the top of the page. We used a solid stain by Behr (available exclusively at Home Depot) and you can imagine how happy the customer was with these fantastic results!
