Customers say: Quick response

"Contractor removed an existing wood fence and replaced a with a new wood fence. They were quick to provide a quote. They were also the cheapest of three contractors I asked to bid the job. They showed up for work everyday on time. They communicated with me about the project from start to finish to ensure I was happy with the work performed. They finished the project quickly and efficiently in 5 working days. I am happy with the final product and would use them again for other home projects."

"We hired Tony Rosekrans to remove our old 12 x 12 deck and to replace it with a 20 x 20 deck. The new deck is absolutely wonderful, one of a kind outdoor living space. The rainy weather was a factor in regards to the time it took from start to finish, but we are more than pleased with the outcome. So . . . we also hired him to construct a fence for us, which, if weather permitting, should be started shortly. We will keep Tony Rosekrans contact information as we have other projects we would like to have done in the future. I really want to thank Service Magic for providing such a helpful service; it has made the whole process so easy."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

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.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.
