Door Refinish-Varnish

A front door is more than just an openable barrier that allows entry and exit of a home. It can also be a statement piece, especially if you have a beautiful, eye-catching front door. However, front doors are the most vulnerable to regular wear and tear, weather, temperature, and pests, undermining its natural beauty and your home’s overall curb appeal.

Doors in residential areas in the Bay Area, CA, may differ in material, size, color, and design. However, lack of maintenance may make your doors more prone to damage, especially those made of genuine wood. If your door has been painted and repainted many times or the paint job is flaking, you are doing more harm than good to your front door.

Instead of applying another coat of paint to your front door, strip the old paint or varnish and then refinish the door, making your door look new again. You could apply a fresh coat of paint to your door. But if your door is made of real, high-quality wood and you want to highlight its natural color and grain, you can varnish it.  

Doors, especially wooden doors, are very vulnerable to damage from environmental elements such as moisture and sunlight. These elements can cause changes to the wood that could warp or otherwise damage it. This is why varnishing your doors is essential, as it can provide protection against these environmental threats, not to mention bring out your wooden door’s natural color, grain, and overall beauty.

At Custom Painting, Inc., we want to make sure that your front door looks its best. Yes, we do more than just paint interior and interior walls. We have the skills, experience, and tools, as well as follow a process that is proven to give your doors the best possible results.
