Get matched with top deck staining pros in Rand, WV

Q: How long does stain last?

• <div><p>A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.</p></div>

Q: What’s the best temperature to paint a pool deck?

• <div><p>The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.</p></div>

Q: How do you keep stain rags from combusting?

• <div><p>Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible. </p></div>

Q: How long before you can walk on a painted deck?

• <div><p>It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.</p></div>

Q: Should you stain or seal a cedar deck or fence?

• <div><p>Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.</p><p>When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.</p><p>To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.</p></div>

"
Mr Sanderson prep'd the walls and completed finishing a patch of drywall repair that another contractor did not finish properly. He removed baseboards for the new flooring that was to be installed. He repaired all old nail holes and applied three coats of paint. After flooring crew was finished, Mr Sanderson returned to install the base and apply the finial coat of latex enamel. I also requested that all of my doors be removed and sprayed with new white enamel. The older home I recently purchased had all of the doors stained dark brown and sealed. The doors came out great ! The spraying area was my garage and all walls and doors were protected with plastic and the area was returned to its original state upon completion.

I would like to mention that my home was unfurnished at the time of work.

I would recommend that you take Mr Sanderson's advice on which brand(s) of paint / finish to apply. I did not and was unhappy with my selection and had to purchase additional product to get the look I wanted.
