"When getting an estimate from Leo, we noticed that my recently installed deck was not properly supported. Leo was able to correct this problem and then apply the stain which was the original work to be done. Leo was very courteous and professional. His pricing was very competitive. He did a very good job, and I would hire him again."

"Sunflower Paintingâ s owner, Terry Counts, provided an accurate, clearly written estimate, for repairing, power washing, and staining two decks, repairing damage, sanding, and painting my foyer, hallway, kitchen, bathroom, and 4 doors doors. Terry delivered professional, high quality work on each of my projects, at the agreed upon cost, and he completed the work sooner than expected. I love the quality of his work, attention to detail before, during, and after project completion, contractual integrity (no hidden fees), work ethic, protection of the environment, timeliness and tidiness. Without reservation I recommend Sunflower Painting. Dr.A. (Fenton, MI)"

"All Pro Painting Services in Swartz Creek was 1 of 3 quotes we obtained for interior painting approx 1400 sqft home. Ed was the ONLY one who provided a written detailed proposal (VERY reasonable) along with his license number & multiple referrals (I called 3 & all were pleased with their work). His workers are THE BEST. Forman Chris has been with the company 14+yrs. He is a stickler for details & insured the job was done with the highest degree of quality. Chris2, his coworker, did a fabulous job caulking new crown molding before the painting started. These guys were very polite, asked if they had questions, worked diligently & quietly, cleaned up at the end of each work day & they did a super inspection & clean up on the last day. WE ARE EXTREMELY PLEASED. We recommend All Pro Painting Services with the higest confidence that you will be very happy with their work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

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.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.
