With 40 years in business we have the ability to take on almost any job, our small yet very knowledgeable is a hard working staff, always customer service oriented.

"David and his team went the extra mile to prep and paint the exterior of my house as they have in the past. Meticulous attention to detail and all the vagaries that seasoned houses present are hallmarks of David’s work. This is especially important to me as the color scheme of my house involves five individual colors that need to be seamlessly incorporated. David and his Van Gogh team are definitely the ones to call if you have a vintage home with complex, multicolor gingerbread detail. David is wonderful to work with and his advice about paint color and attention to structural issues come from decades of work in the field."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it’s best to remove the previous coat of stain from your deck before restaining it, especially if the surface is in bad condition. Restaining on top of an old coat can lead to an uneven surface, as the new stain won’t fully soak into the deck material. That said, if your deck is in excellent condition, you may be able to get away with just cleaning the surface instead of sanding it and removing the old stain. If you choose not to remove the previous coat, it’s best to use the same type of stain for the new layer.

Applying a sealer after staining is often recommended, especially for outdoor wood surfaces like decks or fences. It helps protect the wood from moisture, UV rays, and other elements, extending the life of the stain and preserving the wood's appearance. It also enhances the stain's durability and resistance to wear and tear. 

However, in some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection required. Always check the specific product recommendations and consider the wood's exposure and usage when deciding whether to apply a sealer after staining.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

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.

The average cost to stain a deck is $850, and most homeowners pay between $550 and $1,220, depending on the size of the deck. You can contact a professional to get a free quote before you decide if it’s worth the cost. Staining a deck yourself will cost less than $100, on average, but the process can take several hours.
