Our team can preform absorption tests for new construction surfaces to made sure quality absorption and application is available. A common rule is to wait at least 6 months for pressure-treated wood to completely dry in ideal conditions. For kiln-dried lumber, you can usually stain it much sooner
Our team can treat many deck surfaces differently depending on type of wood, amount of dirt, debris and mildew removal, existing coating removal and resurfacing for a clean smooth product upon the finished application.
The best times for our team to stain are late spring or early fall. You want to avoid the peak heat of summer, as direct sunlight can cause the stain to dry too rapidly and result in uneven absorption. During peak season we will aim for days with moderate temperatures (between 50* and 90*)
Our team asks that customers and foot traffic remain off of any surface for at least 24-48 hours after our team leaves offsite. Time for drying and adhesion can change dependent on time of season, weather and humidity, and application process.
Stain is generally better for horizontal deck surfaces because it soaks into the wood fibers and repels moisture from within. Paint sits on top of the wood and is highly prone to cracking, peeling, and blistering under foot traffic.
