Bring Your Deck Back to Life
Your deck or outdoor wood surfaces are constantly exposed to sun, wind, and moisture. Over time, they lose their beauty and protection. But should you stain or paint? Both have advantages—here’s how to decide.
Staining: Enhancing Natural Beauty
Highlights natural wood grain
Penetrates deep, protecting against moisture
Great for decks, fences, and railings
Easier to maintain and reapply
Painting: Bold Color & Strong Coverage
Covers imperfections and weathered wood
Offers endless color options
Better for trim, posts, or surfaces that need a polished look
Longer-lasting color, though harder to refinish later
Factors to Consider
Wood Type: High-quality cedar looks beautiful with stain, while older or uneven wood may benefit from paint.
Exposure: Decks in direct sunlight may need more frequent maintenance if stained.
Style Preference: Do you want natural beauty or a crisp, bold look?
