"Painting and so much more! Ernesto and his crew built our new composite deck for us. They handled everything--tear out and disposal of the old deck and construction of the new deck from the foundation up. It has transformed our back yard. They also rebuilt our wooden privacy fence with the same quality workmanship. We could not be happier with the work they have done for us and we will definitely be using them again in the future. We found out about Ernesto from another family who had him handle a major deck construction project, and that turned out beautifully. After seeing this we called Ernesto for a bid, and within a couple of weeks we were enjoying our new deck. If you're considering a deck or fencing project I highly recommend Ernesto and his crew. They are professional, prompt and they complete their work on time and on budget."

"Paint brothers came out to stain my wood fence. First thing they were very polite, he explained the job and the different kinds of stains. He was very respectful. He called me, sir several times very professional. Done a great job on the fence. If I have any paint jobs, I would call them because they are very professional and courteous while they were staining my fence and they did an excellent job!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
