"Mario Ramirez and his crew are the utmost professional and efficient painting/drwyall contractor we’ve ever experienced. Our upstairs HVAC leaked condensation down into the primary bedroom, leaving a couple of water stains on our ceiling. After the HVAC was repaired, we hired M&J and we are so thankful we did. They also repaired a noticeable ceiling seam in the same room, and there is no longer any evidence of either. There are several aspects of their work we can compliment but my favorite is how well they protected the space. We only moved small furniture directly below the water stains while all other furnishings remained as is. They also protected flooring from our front door to the bedroom, leaving no trace of their presence or repair work. This level of care speaks volumes on their dedication to exemplary work and respect towards the customer. Cherry on top is their more than fair pricing. Their work exceeded expectations!"

He has done numerous projects for me, new deck, new roof cover over the new deck, installed a new AC for me, new shelves, in the bathroom, I do not hesitate to call him for just about anything. Even put a 26 inch new bike together for me! I'm 74, so I rely on him for ALOT of handyman projects. You can trust him, and his crew... Michael Phillips"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

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.

Provided conditions are ideal, staining an entire deck should take as little as a couple of hours and up to a couple of days to apply and cure. Additional procedures, like sealing a deck or using additional treatments, may extend the project by a few additional days.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.
