Warranty
Decks / Gazebos / Play-Sets / Trellises / Houses
The natural aging process of DT-1000:
Our warranty is not intended to imply that the wood surface will maintain its original color as when first applied. When DT-1000 is first applied, it has a dark appearance, and over time will gradually become lighter in appearance and eventually the wood surface will fade to a gray state. This “lightening” of the color will not affect the protective quality of the preservatives.
  • Our warranty covers 100% of labor and materials, from wood surfaces that are sealed with DT-1000 to fading of wood back to its original gray state.
  • From date of its application, DT-1000 is guaranteed against lifting or peeling.
  • Colored sealer carries an 18-month warranty.
  • Clear sealer carries a 12-month warranty.
  • All warranties are fully transferrable.
  • Some wood species have tree sap that may naturally leach out of the wood. In that event, Deck Tech will recoat the areas affected by the tree sap. Because of the unpredictability of wood and its natural properties, the leaching of sap may continue to occur. The Deck Tech warranty covers the first visit only; subsequent visits are subject to an additional fee.
  • In the event caustic cleaners (e.i. bleach, harsh soaps, wood brighter, wood cleaners, salt etc.) are applied to the wood surface treated by Deck Tech, the warranty is void.
  • Solid body stains carry a 36-month warranty on the entire wood surface when applied to decks, gazebos, playsets and trellises.
  • Solid body stains, when applied to houses only, carry a 60 month warranty.

Exotic Woods (i.e. Brazilin Walnut/IPE/African Perduek)

Deck Tech recommends that exotic woods be cleaned and resealed yearly. Because these types of woods have a dense cell structure, the stain simply is not able to penetrate as deeply. It is recommended that decks or fences built with exotic woods of woods be treated at least on a yearly base.

Solid Stain applied to Decks / Gazebos / Playsets / Trellis
