"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."

"Matt is fantastic! I hired him to do some carpentry work. I know nothing about such things, and he made sure to explain everything—what he recommended, different things he could do, why he was doing certain things—and he included me in every step of the process. In addition, he is very responsive and communicates really well and PROMPTLY! He takes his work seriously, and it shows. I’ll definitely be hiring him again, and I highly recommend him!"

"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

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.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
