Professional wood finishing that stands up to UV, snow, and temperature swings year after year.
Hear from Our Customers
You’ve seen what happens to untreated wood in Colorado. The sun bleaches it gray. The snow and rain make it crack and warp. Within two seasons, what looked great starts looking like a maintenance nightmare.
Quality wood finishing changes that timeline completely. Your deck stops absorbing water that freezes and splits the boards. Your fence keeps its rich color instead of fading to weathered gray. Your exterior trim maintains its protection instead of becoming a constant repair project.
The difference isn’t just appearance. It’s about extending the actual lifespan of your wood surfaces by years, sometimes decades. When wood is properly sealed and finished, it becomes resistant to the moisture, UV damage, and temperature fluctuations that destroy unprotected surfaces. You end up with wood that looks better longer and requires far less frequent maintenance.
We at L F Rosa Painting have been protecting wood surfaces throughout Glen Comfort and the surrounding Colorado area. We understand exactly what this climate does to wood and how to fight back against it.
Most wood finishing failures happen because of poor surface preparation or using products that aren’t designed for Colorado’s intense UV and dramatic temperature swings. We’ve seen every type of wood surface problem this area can create, from deck boards that split after one winter to fences that lose their finish in a single summer.
That experience means we know which products actually work here and which preparation steps you can’t skip if you want results that last.
Every wood finishing project starts with honest assessment. We examine your wood’s current condition, identify any damage or wear, and determine what level of preparation is needed. Some surfaces just need cleaning and light sanding. Others require more extensive restoration work.
Surface preparation is where most DIY projects and inexperienced contractors fail. We remove old finishes completely when necessary, sand to the right grit for optimal adhesion, and address any moisture or damage issues before applying new products. This step determines whether your new finish lasts two years or twenty.
Product selection matters just as much as preparation. We use stains, sealers, and finishes specifically designed for Colorado’s climate conditions. These products resist UV fading, handle temperature extremes, and create the moisture barrier your wood needs to survive here. After application, we inspect every surface to ensure complete coverage and proper penetration.

Professional wood finishing means more than just applying stain or sealer. It starts with thorough surface preparation, including power washing when appropriate, sanding to remove old finishes and smooth rough areas, and addressing any structural issues that could affect the final result.
We handle all types of wood surfaces common in Glen Comfort homes. Deck refinishing includes rail systems, stairs, and all horizontal surfaces that take the most weather abuse. Fence restoration covers posts, panels, and gates. Interior work includes cabinets, trim, and built-in features that need refinishing or color updates.
Material selection is customized to your specific situation. Different wood species, exposure levels, and desired appearances require different approaches. We’ll walk you through options for stain colors, finish sheens, and protection levels so you get exactly the look and durability you want.
