Prevents Wood Rot 

Staining seals wood pores to help prevent rot, decay, and mold growth.  

Stops Fading 

Wood fades and discolors due to weathering, so it’s important to help protect it with stain.   

Deck Paint vs. Stain 

The most significant difference between paint and stain is that paint sits on top of the surface, while stain absorbs into the surface. We can help determine the best thing for your deck or fence. Some of the differences between paint and stain include the following: 

Appearance 

Stain enhances the natural beauty and grain of your wood, while paint covers the wood with a specific color. 

Transparency 

Stains are typically semi-transparent or transparent to allow the natural grain of the boards to show through, while paint covers the grain. 

Maintenance 

Stain fades and wears away over time, so wood needs to be stained every few years. Painted wood typically lasts longer without chipping or fading. 

Preparation 

Painting requires prepping the wood with sanding and priming. Staining is directly applied to clean wood.

We offer ongoing fence and deck stain and paint maintenance to ensure your color is fresh. We help increase the lifespan of your stain or paint with maintenance services. It’s important to get a professional pressure wash yearly. We recommend fresh coats of stain and paint touchups every one to four years.  

How to Choose a Fence or Deck Paint Color

Darker deck paint colors don’t show dirt or stains. Our team works with you to ensure you choose a paint color that reflects your aesthetic goals for your outdoor living space and will last for many years.  

How to Choose a Fence or Deck Stain Finish  

We offer stains in multiple types of finishes to meet your style needs. We can work with you to ensure you choose the best stain for your outdoor living space. Our types of stain finishes include the following:  

Transparent or Translucent  

A transparent stain finish shows most of the natural wood grain through it. Most of these stains are oil-based to allow them to penetrate deeply into wood boards. 

Semi-Transparent 

Semi-transparent stain finishes allow a small amount of wood grain to show through. Most semi-transparent stain finishes are water-based, so we do not need to remove previous stain coatings.   

Solid 

Solid stain finish does not show any wood grain. Most of these finishes are water-based and can be created in any color.
