Professional Deck Staining Services
At Professional Staining, we don’t just make your deck look better. We make it last longer. Whether you’re restoring an older deck or treating a newly built one, we provide a deck staining process that’s built for long-term performance in any climate.
Expert Deck Staining for Lasting Protection
Wood decks expand and contract with changing temperatures, absorb moisture when it rains, and dry out quickly under the sun. Over time, this causes cracking, warping, splintering, fading, and even rot. DIY staining may seem like a simple task, but it often leads to streaky finishes, poor penetration, and short-lived protection.
Professional deck staining addresses these challenges with the right preparation, tools, and high-grade products. We assess the type of wood—whether it’s pressure-treated pine, cedar, redwood, or composite—then apply stains that enhance natural grain while safeguarding against UV rays, mold, and moisture damage. Our stains and sealants penetrate deeply into the wood, forming a lasting barrier that resists peeling and weathering.
Our Full-Service Deck Staining Process
Every project starts with a detailed walk-through of the deck to evaluate its condition. We identify any areas of rot, discoloration, or wear that may need sanding, repair, or special attention. Then we begin the prep phase, which includes pressure washing or hand scrubbing to remove built-up dirt, algae, and old finishes. This step opens the wood grain and allows for deeper stain absorption.
If needed, we sand the deck surface and railings to smooth out rough spots and remove any remaining coatings. Once prepped, we help you select a stain type that aligns with your style and the demands of your climate. Transparent stains show off new wood grain, semi-transparent offers a mix of color and protection, and solid stains provide maximum coverage and UV defense—especially helpful for older or weathered decks.
Stain is applied using brushes, pads, or sprayers depending on the wood and layout of your deck. We work with the grain for even absorption and a clean, professional finish. After the stain dries fully, we apply a weather-resistant sealant that forms a water-repellent shield over the deck surface, extending its lifespan and helping maintain its appearance.

Deck Stain Types and Finishes
Choosing the right stain matters. Our team guides you through the pros and cons of each type:
Transparent stains highlight the natural grain and texture of newer or high-grade wood. Semi-transparent stains offer a touch of color while allowing some wood character to show through, offering a good balance between beauty and durability. Solid stains are the best option for older decks or those with discoloration, offering strong UV protection and a more uniform appearance. We also offer eco-friendly, low-VOC stains and sealants for customers looking for safer options for children, pets, or the environment.
