"“Baumgras Consulting did a great job on our deck repair. The team was professional, responsive, and finished the work on time. The repairs look solid and the deck feels much safer and better than before. Communication was clear throughout the process, and the final result exceeded expectations. I’d definitely recommend them for deck repair or other home improvement projects.”"

Customers say: True professional

"It is rare these days to find someone so extremely hardworking and punctual, who always does what he says he will do. His house painting prep work was painstaking and detailed, and he carefully selected thee correct types of paint for each different surface. There were several rotten boards on my old deck that his crew carefully replaced, as well as repainting the whole deck. I was very happy the the job and would gladly hire Mr. Bautista again for future projects."

"Outstanding! From the initial appraisal and estimate, through the actual work and follow-up, it was an excellent experience. Steve's crew took care of every detail and kept me informed of their progress. Steve took time to make and explain his recommendations on paint types and materials. And once they had completed the work they thoroughly cleaned up the site. I highly recommend Eagle Painting!"

"Very well. I was skeptical at first but Mr Miller put me at ease by sending his information and was very transparent. He said he would be at the location at a specific time, and was. Mr. Miller did a great job staining and keeping me informed of his progress through sending pictures and calling me. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will be using him again for my future projects."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

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.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.
