"Simply put, Alex Williamson and his team are the best. Professional, capable, skilled, proficient, responsive, easy to communicate with, caring, delivers on promises, flexible, follows up -- where's my Thesaurus when I need it to look up more superlatives to describe the positive experience I had with Alex. He and his team expertly pressure washed the house and pool deck, painted the house/trim, repaired some soffit, and even pulled some unneeded cable from the exterior of the house at the last minute -- all for a very fair and competitive price. Alex, if you're reading this, as soon as I save a little more money for the next few projects I'm planning, you can count on the fact you will be the first one I call. Your business card is safely stored and handy when I need it."

"We recently moved into a new rental home. Patrick from GHI did an amazing job. The house is very large with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and Patrick painted it in 1 weekend so we could begin moving in the following Monday. I would recommend them for any painting project you have. They do great work."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

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. 

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

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.
