Q: Are there alternatives for waterproofing my deck boards?

• <div><p>Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/polycrylic-vs-polyurethane.htm">Oil-based or water-based sealants</a> soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains&mdash;available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors&mdash;add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to clean my deck before staining?

• <div><p>Yes, you need to thoroughly clean the deck surface before <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-stain-a-deck.htm">staining your deck</a>. Dirt, debris, and mildew can settle on the surface of your wood. If you do not properly clean it, these stains will get trapped between the wood and the stain. Not only does this present an unsightly surface, but your wood will only partially be protected by the stain, meaning you'll need to stain again sooner.</p></div>

Q: What lasts longer on a deck, stain or paint?

With deck paint, you can get up to <b>10 years</b> of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at <b>two to three years</b>. </p></div>

Q: What maintenance is needed after painting or staining?

• <div><p>Ensure gutters and downspouts remain clean, monitor wall integrity, and promptly address any arising imperfections or peels concept permanence rooted.</p></div>

Q: Should deck color be lighter or darker than house?

• <div><p>Like the choice of stain vs. paint, your deck color is entirely up to you. By consulting color theory, you can make choosing a house and deck color combination much easier. Many people choose a darker color for their deck because it doesn&rsquo;t show dirty footprints or other marks from daily wear and tear as much as a crisp white or other light color.</p></div>
