What is better: wet-sanding or dry-sanding?

• <div><p>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.</p></div>

What happens if you don't clean a deck before staining?

• <div><p>If you don’t clean your deck before staining, dirt and debris can get stuck to the surface—which isn’t a good look. Plus, the stain won’t penetrate the wood properly and won’t do such a good job of protecting the deck from bad weather and UV rays. Basically, the stain won’t last as long or look as good.</p></div>

My deck needed major repair, and with his expertise, the home doctor rebuilt a safer and more beautiful deck. He was a pleasure to work with and I will be calling him in the future.
