"Wilber and his team did a good job. There were some touchups for the paint and stain that required the crew to come back (perhaps I'm a bit demanding), but overall I'm pleased. The natural oak stain on the stairs was well matched to the existing flooring and the paint job was well done with Sherwin Williams Cashmere (upcharge from Promar). Overall a good value."

"Manny and his team did a fantastic job on staining my deck! Got the old paint off with great detail then stained it for a great finish. When I noticed something that was concerning, he redid the section to make sure I was pleased, no questions asked. He was punctual, kind and fast! Highly recommended and will be using him for other projects. Great experience all around!"

"George viiteri did an outstanding job painting the interior of our whole house he started on the date, promised, arrived on time. He checked for minor cracks on the walls and repaired them before painting. They were very neat and clean and courteous too. We are in our 70s and we’re unable to move several large mirrors from the wall walls, but he took them down before painting and rehung them. They even clean them before putting them back up. Everything came out great and there was no mess. I highly recommend this Painter. He was courteous, friendly, and most important extremely neat. Cleaned up every night before he left. My husband and I are extremely happy with his work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.
