"K-Rod did a good job painting. When they stained my deck, they dripped stain on my plants and trampled some of them. This is an established garden and I don’t know if the plants will come back. They did not show any care or concern my property and did not even cover the plants before staining."

"We had our house trim and large deck painted, and it was by far the best experience I’ve ever had! Everyone was so friendly and amazing. I think the best part was that they took so much pride in their work!! I will refer them, and use them for any painting in the future! The cost was also a great value!"

"Al and his team at Essential Painting were fantastic. They painted the interior of our house, stained the front door, pressure washed the deck and pool patio, and repaired the deck. They provided a detailed proposal at a competitive price. They were prompt and completed the work as scheduled. They did an excellent job. The team was friendly and very helpful. I highly recommend them."

"The Target team was really extraordinary. They brought very talented preparation people to the job for starters -- anybody that paints knows this is the most critical step! The caulking, careful sanding and scraping, the carpentry to replace any rotted trim (I had some, so it was convenient they had the carpenters right in the company). Then into the painting, and here Target really distinguished themselves. We changed colors and went semi-gloss on the trim (requires a little more skill to apply it and have it look great in the end). The guys worked incredibly hard, you can tell they take a lot of pride in what they do! They also did my deck which needed a lot of work. In the end? My house looks AMAZING. Caulked tight, great new colors, incredibly skilled painting. They communicate really clearly throughout the whole process, they even have a quality check at the end by one of the veterans just to walk the whole job, review everything and make sure that I as the customer was happy. This is a great company, I can't recommend them highly enough."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

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.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
