Get matched with top deck staining pros in Groveland, ID

Q: What happens if an oil-based stain gets wet?

• <div><p>Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn&rsquo;t cause you any problems.</p></div>

Q: What is the best way to protect a deck?

• <div><p>The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage. </p></div>

Q: How much does a five-gallon bucket of stain cover?

• <div><p>A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you&rsquo;re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you&rsquo;ll need.</p></div>

Q: Do repair services include repainting?

• <div><p>Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.</p></div>

Q: How do you refresh a painted deck?

• <div><p>You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-refinish-deck.htm">refinishing the deck</a> altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.</p></div>

Kramer Siding did an excellent job installing siding on our new house! They are honest and took the time to attend to the details that made all the difference. We have large porches and the metal work is the best. If you want the job done right, give them a call.
