When your exterior woodwork is looking grim, and your interior wood door frames are peeling, you may need a touch of varnish. Varnish is a tried and true sealant that works wonders on both residential and commercial buildings, especially historic or older properties. In addition to acting as a sealant, varnish can also serve aesthetic purposes and accent various types of woodwork including doors, porches, and decor. Why Varnish? There are several reasons you might consider exterior and interior varnishing. The varnish not only seals the surface, protecting it from moisture, heat, insects and scratches, but it also enhances the appearance of the wood. The right varnish can bring out the natural wood grain, change the color of the wood, enhance the contrast in the wood, or change the wood’s texture. For someone wanting to accent a wood furnishing, varnish is an alternative to staining or antiquing, depending on what the vision is for the final look. A varnish is a great general purpose finish to use outside and inside your home. When you think of varnish, you may think of what was applied to your high school gym floor. But varnishes have come a long way! Varnishes can be oil or water-based and boast the highly favorable quality of being waterproof. For that reason, varnishes are used frequently for boats and in the marine industry. More commonly, varnish is a solution for woodwork that may be confused with wood stains. The difference between wood varnish and wood stain is that varnish acts primarily as a sealant, especially against external forces like the weather and wear. Therefore, many people may find door frames or porches looking grim. A stain, however, is used to change the color of the wood and is its own sealant. Wood stains are commonly used in homes to compliment aesthetics including cabin, rustic, industrial, shabby chic, French country and traditional décor styles. Why You Should Rely on the Painting Professionals in Hesperia, CA Varnish is trickier than painting or other sealants. The high durability means a little more time, experience and care in the application. Because varnish can dry slowly, bubble at the surface, and needs to be applied in the right environment, it can be difficult and frustrating to tackle on your own. The professionals at Landry’s Painting know the ins and outs of exterior and interior varnishing. By calling the professionals, you can save time and money. While DIY projects may seem personal and fun to take on, they may be much more difficult to complete than originally anticipated. When you call Landry’s Painting, you can be sure that the job will be done efficiently and effectively.

We promise to meet our high painting standards, as well as your own. The professional painters at Landry’s Painting in Hesperia, CA follow a simple procedure to ensure a successful painting project including setup and preparation, washing, painting, cleaning and inspecting. When you think of painting, you may initially think of only the painting process itself–however it is much more involved and can be quite exhausting and messy if you are not accustomed to such work. Too, if you are interested in painting or varnish for aesthetic purposes, you may be overwhelmed by how time consuming it can be, especially on your own. If you are interested in varnish for aesthetic purposes, you may also be interested in other woodwork service Landry’s Painting provides including: ● Carpentry wood restoration: This includes wood decks, hard wood floors, and other wood accents. In addition to providing sealant and varnish services, we can evaluate the wood’s structural integrity, testing for rotting wood, splinters, and safety hazards, like rusted nails and screws, with the goal of restoring the wood to a beautiful, but safe, surface. ● Oil base enameling: This finish is ideal for painting trim and doors, leaving a glossy finish. ● Antiquing: This technique can update your home by aging wood through a sanding or glazing process. Antiquing can complement a variety of home aesthetics, as well as provide a feeling of warmth. ● Epoxy coatings: Like varnish acts as a sealant on wood, epoxy coatings can be used on garage floors and other surfaces to protect against external forces, “sealing” them from extreme heat, corrosive chemicals, and scratches.
