"I purchased the two hour special on Angie's list and it went very well.  I was sent an email notification with the contact number for the provider and setting a date was no problem.  Mark came to my home on time, as scheduled, and did a great job.  I had one small deck on which I wanted the lattice just hung from hooks because my crawl space access is beneath it and Mark did a very nice job with that.  He also caulked some solar lights on the stair posts for me because, frankly, I wasn't quite sure what to do with them.  All in all a great experience start to finish and I plan to have Mark come again for other chores.

"Absolutely amazing! We went from a nicotine yellow wall color to a light gray to update our home for the holidays. We also currently have him hired again to do our downstairs as well. He also provides pressure washing and deck staining services and we have a date booked with him for that as well. We are very happy with the service we have already received and looking forward to the future services."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

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.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

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.
