Deck Staining Services
in Green Bay & De Pere Service Areas
Decks, fences, and patios are very common in the greater Green Bay service area. The weather and winter conditions can be hard on exterior wooden structures like these, and regular staining or painting is required to prevent wood rot or other problems over time. Without regular maintenance, costly structural damage can happen.
The CertaPro Painters® of NE Wisconsin residential painting crews have years of experience sealing and staining decks to protect them from all types of weather conditions. Depending on your project, our professional surface prep and deck staining process may include:
Scraping
We use tools to scrape loose paint, dirt, and grime from the surfaces.
Sanding
Sanding is not always required, but many projects will need sanding to even out the wood.
Power Wash
Surfaces are power washed to clean of debris or accumulated grime.
Paint or Stain
The final step is to apply premium paint or stain to your surface.

Most horizontal surfaces will need to be stained or painted once every 1-3 years in Wisconsin.
Solid Stains
Solid stains completely cover the wood grain and have a painted appearance. This type of stain has the highest durability and life of the stain types. Solid stains also have a wider variety of colors and color options, color changes can be done when using a solid stain product.
Semi-Transparent & Semi-Solid
These products offer one step up from a transparent stain but still allow some of the wood grain to show through. It can be applied over other coatings in some cases. This type of stain may require more than 1 coat to get the desired look and color. Semi-solid stains are also more durable than transparent stains and have a slightly longer lifespan.
Transparent or Translucent
Transparent stains are commonly used on floors and furniture, the stain can also be used for decks and fences. Stains in this category are either clear or slightly tinted, leaving much of the natural wood grain showing through. These stains are typically oil based and soak into the wood offering protection from water and the elements. In order to apply this stain the wood must be bare, it can not be applied on top of an existing paint or stain. Best used on brand new decks and fences.
