Project Complete

Greetings and welcome to your project blog for the upcoming deck staining project at Woods Edge in Circle Pines. We are thrilled to be onsite!

Wednesday, September 23rd: Good morning! 

The crew is going to be finishing up the staining in Phase 5 today. There are 2 buildings remaining and then we’ll be doing a check to make sure all areas are complete and up to par. Thanks so much for your patience and participation on this journey of a project to wash, prep, and stain decks at your 20 Buildings! 

Monday, September 21st: Good afternoon! 

We hope you all had a great weekend. The crew is onsite and ready to prep and stain at Buildings 14, 15, and 16 today. They’ll begin in Phase 5 tomorrow. We’re hoping for another clear weather week to get the decks all wrapped up this week!

The crew will finish Phase 3, Buildings 11 and 12 finished today.

Thursday, September 17th: Greetings! 

The crew will be finishing up the last decks in Phase 5 today for pressure washing. They are going to be starting to stain at Building 10. Thanks!

Wednesday, September 16th: Good morning! 

We wanted to share our video from the beginning of the project. It has further details regarding the ‘furring’ of the wood when we are pressure washing. This may happen to decks that are newly replaced and have no protective coating on them. The crew will be back to take care of these areas of debris and also sand prior to the staining. Please let us know if you have any questions. Thanks!

We’ll be starting to wash Phase 5 today – Buildings 17 and 18. They will be staining at Building 8 today. 

Tuesday, September 15th: Good afternoon! 

The crew stained Buildings 5 and 6 in Phase 2 yesterday and got through washing Buildings 13 and 14. Today they’ll wash 15 and 16 and stain Building 7 and maybe start 8.

What a week… and a wet week at that. Unfortunately crew was not able to start staining any of the decking in Phase 3 this week. We are posting notices in Phase 4 and Phase 5 to start pressure washing next week Monday through Thursday. We want to make sure the washing is completed early enough and then we can just cruise on the staining. If you are in these Phases please have your deck cleared in advance of our washing.

Please continue to check the blog as we’ll have the most current information here regarding scheduling, delays, etc. Thanks so much and we really appreciate your cooperation and patience as we get your decking completed as quickly as we can … while being considerate of the weather restrictions. 

Have a great weekend!

Hello and welcome to your project blog for the deck staining project at Woods Edge. We are looking forward to being onsite with you! 

The crew will be kicking off on Monday, August 24th with pressure washing of the included decking areas – front and rear decking: deck floors, skirts, support posts, treads, risers, and headers. For the washing, we kindly request that you remove all personal items from your deck to allow unobstructed access to the decking while washing. 

We’ll soon post a route map details the route the crew will take when both washing and staining. We will also post a tentative finishing schedule to reference when planning for the crew to be at your deck. 

You can continue to follow the project progress here as we’ll post frequent updates, share photos, and alert you of any weather delays should they come up. Thanks and we’ll see you onsite on Tuesday!
