Get matched with top deck staining pros in Alamo, GA

Q: How long does wood stain last?

• <div><p>Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it&rsquo;s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.</p></div>

Q: Can I stain my deck after morning dew?

• <div><p>Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into. </p></div>

Q: What is the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck?

• <div><p>A concrete overlay is often the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck. To do this, you&rsquo;ll need to pour a thin layer of concrete over the existing pool deck, which you can customize by stamping or painting. A <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/stamped-concrete-adds-affordable-appeal-outdoor-patios.htm">stamped concrete</a> overlay provides additional traction on a pool deck that can help minimize the risk of people slipping and falling. </p></div>

Q: How long does exterior paint last?

• <div><p>An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.</p></div>

Q: When is the best time to paint a deck?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;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.</p></div>

"Everything was going great at the start of the project with the demo of the old deck in March 2016. However the craftsmanship of the carpenter was not very good, boards were rough cut and the gaps between the deck boards were inconsistent. Luis then stained the deck as promised, however this was too early to stain and the deck boards start seeping sap. It was unusable, we asked him to repair which he did, and they did a great job of fixing and re-staining the deck boards."
