"I just moved to a new home, and I knew my deck needed maintenance but wasn't exactly sure what needed to be done. The railing seemed a little loose, and the wood was really dry and cracked. I had a couple bids to get my deck stained, but I also wanted to know what to do to correct the loose rail. The other bidders specialized in just painting and staining, so they didn't have input on the railing. The team from superpainters recommended some board replacement, which was what I thought needed to be done. I decided to go that route with a stain and replacement of rotten boards. We replaced all floorboards, and the 4x4's holding the rail, and sanded and stained the deck. When they started taking off the rail I stuck my finger into one of the rail boards and it was basically mush, then I went down and peeked at the floor boards that were removed, which were beginning to weaken to the point that the ends disintegrated just by flicking my finger at the wood. It was an accident waiting to happen, and my deck is up 1 story so I am so thankful that I went the route of replacing boards, and not just a stain. I asked them to find a stain that matches the natural wood color, and they sent me pictures from the store and recommended this clear honey-tinted color, which resulted in a gorgeous 2 tone deck due to the older wood being a darker hue and the newer replacement wood being lighter. Everybody that comes to my place compliments my deck. I just went to a neighborhood gathering and the new neighbors I haven't met asked me...are you the one with the deck that just got refinished because it is gorgeous. My goal was to be safe, but I am so happy with how beautiful it turned out."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

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.
