"Mike did a great job. He did a very thorough inspection and repaired the parts of the deck that were weak. His crew only took two days to finish the job."

"Joshua from Five Star Painting came out measured and surveyed our deck, and provided a quote to bring it back to look new. On the appointed day, the crew arrived, introduced themselves, and started work. They power washed, stripped, sanded handrail surfaces sealed and stained our deck to include the overhead pergola, and swing (all cedar). When complete, the crew asked me to accompany them in reviewing the job. Upon my approval I thanked them for their meticulous work and attention to detail, and they left. A bit later, Joshua stopped by and reviewed the work again. He noticed a few spots the crew missed, and that I hadn't noticed either. He grabbed a brush and touched up those spots. I am very happy with the results. Needless to say, I am very impressed with the professionalism of Five Star Painting, and would highly recommend them. They earned their FIVE STAR name in my book. Thanks guys for a great job. We love our deck again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.
