"The job was expected to take seven days and was completed in five which was a pleasant surprise. The same four gentlemen arrived to work on my home each day rather than a revolving door of sub-contractors which allowed for a consistent experience. Skip, who estimated the job and prepared the bid, was involved in the work every day which reduced possible confusion and discrepancies regarding what was to be done. Everyone I dealt with start to finish was friendly and professional. I would definitely hire this company again."

"The guys did a great job of cleaning and staining my deck. Excellent choice of colors. Very professional crew yet very friendly. They answered all of my questions, making sure I understood. They moved all of my deck furniture and returned to where it belonged after my deck was dry. I would definitely use them again if I have other projects. Shout out to Shawn, Juan (and his work buddy) and Corey. 😊"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

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.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
