Q: Is it better to brush or roll stain for decks?

• <div><p>It depends on the size of the surface. If you&rsquo;re covering a large area, a paint roller will allow you to stain the entire surface in much less time. Paint rollers also offer the advantage of creating a smoother, more even coat. However, they&rsquo;re not as practical for smaller surfaces such as banisters, spindles, and crevices&mdash;for these, opt for a paintbrush, paint mitt, or lint-free rag instead.</p></div>

Q: Should you stain your deck or seal it for better protection?

• <div><p>Sealing a deck is better than staining in terms of protection. Stain on its own does nothing but change the color of wood, while sealing protects wood from moisture, insects, and UV damage. If you want to stain your wood, consider a stain-and-sealant-in-one to change your deck's appearance while protecting it from the elements. Reapply stain and sealant once every year or two.</p></div>

Q: How do specialists ensure the longevity of deck repairs?

• <div><p>By applying protective finishes and using durable materials that withstand weather and time.</p></div>

Q: Do I need to sand an old deck before staining?

• <div><p>In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. </p></div>

Q: How long should you wait to paint pressure-treated wood until it dries?

• <div><p>You should wait three to six months after you buy it to paint pressure-treated wood. It needs time to dry from the chemicals applied to it. The paint will not adhere to the treated wood as well if it&rsquo;s still wet from chemicals. To test the wooden boards, drip water onto them. If the wood absorbs the water, it&rsquo;s ready for painting. If the water beads up, it&rsquo;s not dry enough to paint yet. You can build your deck or fence while the treated wood is still wet, but you&rsquo;ll need to paint it later. </p></div>

I had no idea things could look so good. It went from depressingly sad garage floor with oil stains and 12 years of neglect to something that will likely be the envy of the neighborhood. They were really responsive, professional, and flexible. I’m happy I chose the Powells and not another...
