"The job only took an hour to complete and went smoothly. Todd made a suggestion on how to arrange the assembly as it was going from 4 holes down to 2 holes. It turned out great. I will definitely use All Trades again."

"We have used Josh Davis service twice. (1) For power washing and weather painting our wooden deck (2) Clean up landscape and cut an unwanted tree near exterior wall. Josh was very professional and suggested the correct cleaning and painting option for the deck. On both the jobs, he was very reasonably priced and the job was really well done. He responded promptly and finished the job on scheduled time. I would definitely hire him again."

"Kian showed up to give an estimate on placing Christmas lights along our roof line. He took the time to pick up needed supplies and even sent a picture of the items from the store to make sure we approved them. He showed up as promised and worked non-stop until the project was done. Kian was very personable and pleasant. We would not hesitate to hire him for future projects"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Aftercare includes routine cleaning, checking for water repellency, and promptly addressing any chips or peels, maintaining the deck's appearance and functionality.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

By applying protective finishes and using durable materials that withstand weather and time.
