Faded, Gray

The San Diego sun is hard on west- and south-facing doors. We bring the wood back and protect it against the next season.

Repair

Wood Repair

Cracks, checking, and dried-out grain filled, repaired, and smoothed before finishing.

Stain

Re-stained to bring back the grain and matched close to the original color.

Seal

UV-Resistant Sealing

Finished with UV-blocking, marine-grade coats built for direct sun.

Hardware

Hardware & Weatherstripping

Handles, locks, and seals removed, protected, and reset for a clean finish.

Gray and Peeling?

Wood Back.

Refinished & Sealed

Doors Brought
Back to Life

A weathered front door is almost always surface damage, not structural. Sanded back and re-sealed with UV-resistant, marine-grade coatings, most sun-faded doors look new again and hold up to direct San Diego sun.

The Difference

A Finish Built
for Direct Sun

Interior finishes fail fast outdoors. We use coatings made for the exact conditions your door faces. We take the door back to clean bare wood instead of painting over the damage, re-stain to revive the grain and match your color, seal it with multiple UV-resistant marine-grade coats built for San Diego sun, then reset the hardware and show you how to keep it protected.

UV-Rated Coatings

We use UV-blocking, exterior-grade finishes made for doors that take direct afternoon sun.

Back to Bare Wood

We do not just coat over the damage. We take it back to clean wood so the finish bonds and lasts.

Cheaper Than Replacing

A quality solid-wood door is worth saving. Refinishing costs a fraction of a new door.

Common Questions

Front Door Refinishing FAQ

Don't see your question? Call or text 858-943-8283 and a real person picks up.

Almost always. Sanded back and re-sealed, most sun-faded wood doors look new again, since the gray is usually just weathered surface wood, not damage all the way through.
When possible, yes. Deeper jobs can be done off the hinges and rehung the same day when practical, and either way we plan it so your entry is not left open for long.
We use UV-resistant, marine-grade coatings built for direct sun, not standard interior finishes, so they resist the fading and cracking that ruin ordinary finishes outdoors.
Yes. We match close to the original or change the color, and can sample first so you see it on your door before we commit.
South- and west-facing doors do best with a light refresh coat every year or two, and that quick maintenance coat is far cheaper than a full sand and refinish later.
Front door refinishing starts at $585. The final price is subject to change based on the door's size, condition, and location, and you always get a firm price before we start, with no surprise fees at the end.
