Villa Park sits in that stretch of older DuPage County neighborhoods where backyard decks often accumulate years of seasonal wear before anyone gets around to a proper refinish. This two-tier deck — 335 square feet of deck floor, stair treads, risers, skirting, wood railings, and all the visible posts — had a previous sealer coat on it that needed to be matched rather than overridden. Layering a different product on top of an existing one tends to produce adhesion problems and uneven tone, so getting the original product right was going to matter here.
We started with a full cleaner application and power wash across the entire surface, working in wood brightener where the grain needed it, then moved into sanding — full power sanding on all horizontal surfaces and lighter hand work on the verticals to open the wood without cutting too deep. Loose nails, screws, and bolts got tightened down before any finish went on. After confirming the previously applied product was Seal-Once Marine Premium Wood Sealer in Natural, we switched from the originally quoted Rymar Xtreme Weather to match it exactly — a better outcome for the re-coat, and the cost difference came back off the customer's invoice. One coat of the toned sealer went on the deck floor, railings, treads, risers, skirting, and posts, and we also covered the bar frame and the beam running underneath the deck, which tend to get passed over. The privacy wall and deck underside were outside the agreed scope and were left as-is.
On this Home in Villa Park, our Bloomingdale crew carried out a complete Deck Sealing across 335 of decking — from thorough surface prep and any needed repairs through to a durable, color-matched finish built to hold up to Chicago weather. Here's everything the job included:

Common questions from Villa Park homeowners researching Deck Sealing.
For this 335 sq ft two-tier deck in Villa Park, the project came in at $2,821, which included a full wash, sanding, and a coat of Rymar Xtreme Weather toned sealer on the deck boards, wood railing, and stairs. In the broader Chicago suburbs, homeowners can generally expect deck sealing to run anywhere from $1,500 to $3,500 depending on size, condition, and the number of surfaces involved.
A 335 sq ft two-tier deck with railings and stairs typically takes a crew one to two days when you factor in washing, sanding, and allowing proper dry time before applying the sealer. Re-coating over an existing sealer, as was the case here, adds prep work since the old finish has to be thoroughly cleaned and abraded so the new product bonds correctly.
The process starts with a pressure wash to clear dirt, mildew, and loose material, followed by sanding to open the wood grain and smooth any rough spots — this step is especially important when going over a previous sealer coat. From there, the sealer is applied to all surfaces: the deck field, wood railing, and stairs, using a toned Rymar Xtreme Weather formula that adds UV protection along with water resistance.
Most wood decks benefit from resealing every two to three years, though decks with heavy sun exposure or foot traffic may need attention sooner — a simple water-bead test will tell you when the wood has stopped repelling moisture. Using a high-performance product like Rymar Xtreme Weather can extend that interval, but regular inspections keep small issues from turning into costly repairs.
