"I learned that Peter and his crew had extensive experience in building decks and installing hardwood. We hire him to replace our deck which was done exceptionally well. One of Peter's crew, Vaso (sp) was an experienced cabinet maker. The amount of attention paid to detail, fit and finish went far beyond anything I've seen in deck construction. I mentioned to Peter that are next project would be to replace the flooring on our first floor. Again the quality and attention to detail exceeded all expectations. Peter and his crew are easy to work with, professional and work well as a team. Peter's is onsite directing the work and ensures all is done to his satisfaction. We couldn't be happier with the work he's done for us"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.
