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 are the problems with wood decking?

• <div><p>If you have wood decking, there are several <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/5-common-deck-problems-and-solutions.htm">common deck problems</a> that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests&mdash;including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.</p></div>

Q: How long should I wait between coats?

• <div><p>When applying multiple coats, wait<b> four to six hours</b> for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.</p></div>

Q: What costs are associated with exterior painting or staining?

• <div><p>Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.</p></div>

Q: How do I select the right paint or stain for my home exterior?

• <div><p>Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.</p></div>
