"They were very professional they painted my entire 2500 sqf home on spring lake. They sprayed the trim and itâ s beautiful! Not only did they do an amazing job and keep us updated throughout the entire job at the end of the job after we paid our bill they gave us a personalized gift basket which Iâ ve never gotten from a company Iâ ve hired before.

"Josh came out to give me an estimate for my deck as well as my son's deck. He was very friendly and professional. I had some questions about the stain/sealant. His responses reflected his expertise. He sent Rich out within a week as promised to clean both decks (mine and my son's). Rich was friendly and did an excellent job getting both decks cleaned and ready for staining. He cleaned my deck box without being asked, which I appreciated. The cleaning was done on a Tuesday. Josh indicated the staining would probably be scheduled for the following Monday. To my surprise, he was able to return (with Rich) on Thursday afternoon to complete my staining. He and Rich returned on Friday to stain my son's deck. My husband and I are very pleased with the professional results. My son and daughter-in-law both confirmed that they are very happy with their deck as well. Josh called ahead each time he planned to come out as I had requested. They were careful not to disturb any of the plants that surround my deck, covering them during the staining. I am delighted with their work. In fact, I asked for a quote to power wash my house, and plan to have them return in a couple of weeks. I highly recommend them."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

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.
