"Ken is a very conscientious, dependable and excellent painter. He stained the exterior of our log home in the Black Forest, and did a great job. He wants to please in all details of his work, and he strove to make certain that I was happy with all aspects of the job. He is a very polite and pleasant person as well. Will be calling on him again in the future."

"A. Lyons Painting did an excellent job with attention to detail and being responsive and respectful. We are happy with how our home looks. It was a very difficult job because the whole house had to be sanded down and stained. I appreciate the level of effort and the quality of the work along with ongoing communication and exceptional professionalism."

"We have used Double Diamond Painting Pros on three different occasions. They stained our fence, and painted our entire house both inside and out. They Cleaned up so well you hardly notice they been there, if not for the great paint job! Our furniture was moved and covered, then moved back to the original places! Double Diamond Painting Pros make sure the job is done to perfection. They also fixed lap siding and trim for us during the process. I highly recommend Double Diamond Painting Pros for any paint or stain job, plus the owner is such a nice person and honest, Id trust him for advice on anything relating to painting and home repairs. Will hire in the future!"

"I had five different companies come out and give quotes for my project and ultimately I hired Painting Bros and I cannot say enough positive things. Not only were they the most competitively priced quote but from the start working with Steve for the initial quote, he was not pushy at all but very friendly, personable and knowledgeable about the process and even offered a few different options for my overall project. The paint crew was top notch, they were very prompt, clean, courteous and respectful of my space and home. Painting Bros will be my go to recommendation for all my friends and family."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.
