Hi, my name is Victor Brown. I have 30 years experience in painting houses, both interior and exterior. I also have 30 years in the lawn care industry, cutting grass and trim is my specialty. I can either leave no grass, or have the grass be evenly over the entire lawn, giving your lawn the nourishment it craves! I have always been an employee, making my bosses money so I've finally decided to branch out and start my own company.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You should always wash your deck before staining to remove debris, built-up grime, mold, mildew, and old, flakey finish. Failing to remove these impurities will cause the stain to look patchy, as it cannot evenly saturate the wood grain. Stain may also have drastically reduced lifespan when applied to a dirty surface. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning the wood to apply stain to ensure the surface is fully dry.

You should refinish your deck once every 2 to 3 years to maintain its appearance and durability. By refinishing your deck every few years, you extend its life by protecting the wood. If you notice faded deck boards, splintering boards, or warping, your deck likely needs refinishing soon. Be sure to repair your deck before refinishing to ensure its longevity.

While most stains will be dry to the touch within 12 hours, it can take up to 48 hours to fully cure. That means that while your stain might not be sticky within 12 hours, it’s still not recommended to get it wet or touch it until it’s had a chance to set for at least 24 to 48 hours.

Choosing the right product involves understanding deck material, desired finish, and local weather conditions. Opt for high-quality, weatherproof formulations ensuring long-term durability and appearance retention.

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’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.
