Premium Wood Staining and Sealing Services
Serving Salinas & Surrounding Areas
Comprehensive Staining & Sealing
Protective finishes engineered for longevity
Staining and sealing are the proven way to protect and beautify exterior and interior wood—decks, fences, siding, doors, trim, pergolas, and more. A quality system blocks UV damage, sheds water, resists mildew, and minimizes checking, cupping, and premature aging while showcasing the wood’s natural grain.
Genesis Painting applies the right combination for your surface: transparent, semi-transparent, semi-solid, or solid-color stains; penetrating oils for deep nourishment; and advanced waterborne sealers that add a durable barrier. We match chemistry and build to the wood species, exposure, and foot traffic for lasting results.
A residential repaint specialist’s approach
As residential repaint specialists, we excel at renewing previously coated wood in occupied homes. Our prep includes thorough wash or strip as needed, brightening and pH neutralization, precision sanding to remove failing film and feather edges, selective repairs and board-end sealing, fastener setting, and moisture testing to ensure the substrate is ready.
Application is meticulous: controlled spraying with back-brushing/back-rolling for even penetration, wet-edge management to prevent lap marks, and film builds measured to manufacturer specs. We work within optimal temperature and humidity ranges, apply wet-on-wet coats where appropriate, and allow proper cure times before reassembly or furniture placement.
Tailored systems for every surface
We work with cedar, redwood, pressure-treated lumber, and dense hardwoods like ipe. Options include low-VOC modified oils for rich, penetrating color; durable waterborne acrylics for superior UV stability; and hybrid systems that balance clarity, adhesion, and flexibility to reduce cracking and peel risk.
Color and sheen are customized through on-site samples and manufacturer fan decks. We can align new finishes with existing palettes, add traction additives for deck safety, and specify mildewcide-enhanced formulas for shaded areas—all while keeping odor low and cleanup simple.
Maintenance is predictable with the right system: horizontal surfaces often refresh every 12–24 months; vertical cladding can run 3–5 years. Gentle cleaning and timely light recoats prevent costly restoration. Genesis Painting offers scheduled maintenance plans and reminders to keep finishes performing year-round.
