Get matched with top deck staining pros in Burley, ID

Q: What is the best way to apply stain?

• <div><p>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&rsquo;re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around <b>four hours</b> between coats.</p></div>

Q: What finish is best for exterior porch paint?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-types-exterior-paint.htm">Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches</a> because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don&rsquo;t want paint that&rsquo;ll show every mark like matte, but you don&rsquo;t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.</p></div>

Q: Should I stain the deck in the morning or afternoon?

• <div><p>Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you&rsquo;re staining the deck during hotter months, it&rsquo;s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you&rsquo;re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won&rsquo;t make as much of a difference.</p></div>

Q: Can you waterproof all wood?

• <div><p>Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn&rsquo;t need another coating.</p></div>

Q: Should pressure-treated wood be green?

• <div><p>Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.</p></div>

"I am so very thankful Painting Innovation LLC came to my exterior house painting rescue. I had a previous painter who spent 3 MONTHS, while I was working, NOT doing his job. FIRED the previous painter. Too late in season for Innovation Painting to fix and redo the job. With in 7 days this spring. The work was completed to my satisfaction! I am grateful that they took on this project because the stupid previous painter used a mix between painters tape and MASKING TAPE which was a nightmare for these painters to remove. I am now hanging my window boxes and grateful that My home is Painted and gorgeous. Many thanks Angel Reyes. Hagerman, Idaho"
