When To Re-Stain Your Deck
Decks should be restained on average every 3-4 years. The lifespan of your deck stain will depend on several different factors, including:
- Different weather conditions can affect the life of your deck. The humidity that we have most of the time in Destin and surrounding areas can increase the amount of moisture in the boards, causing the wood to swell and move. You could have nails pop up and notice smaller gaps between your boards. The sun can also dry out the stain causing it to succumb to the elements much quicker.
- After your deck has been stained, it shouldn’t show any signs of wear for several months. The more you use it, the quicker it will begin to wear down from the dirt on people’s shoes rubbing on the surface like sandpaper.
When is it time to reapply deck stain?
It is best to fully restain your deck every four years by removing the old stain and adding two fresh coats of stain. It can also be helpful to add a new coat of stain after two years to ensure it will hold up for the entire four years. In Northwest Florida, we have some very sunny and humid weather conditions, which could mean you might need to restain your deck more often to protect it from the elements.

Services from a Deck Staining Company
Hiring a professional deck staining company for your Northwest Florida deck staining project is vital.

If you hire someone who doesn’t have the necessary experience, you could end up with a less than appealing deck that could cost you extra money down the line.
Common Questions About Deck Staining Projects
How often should I paint or stain my deck in Destin?
Most decks will need to be stained every two to three years. In Northwest Florida, it may need to be on the shorter end of the timeframe due to the sunny and humid weather. If you aren’t sure, you can contact CertaPro Painters® of Northwest Florida, and we would be happy to evaluate the condition and provide a free estimate. You just don’t want to wait too long because as the stain wears off, the wood is exposed to more water and can start to rot.
Do I need to be home while the painters work on my deck?
It is best to have someone home when the crew arrives, but once the team has begun the work, you don’t need to be there.
How long will it take to stain my deck?
It generally takes 2-4 hours to stain a deck in perfect conditions, and depending on the specific project could take longer.
How long after my deck is stained til I can use it?
You will want to wait a whole day before using your deck after it has been stained. It usually takes around four hours per 100 square feet to dry.
Do I need to sand my deck before painting or staining?
Every deck staining or painting project is unique. If your deck is in excellent condition, it may not need sanding at all. It is best to have a professional look at your deck to see if it will need sanding for the best possible results. Contact us at CertaPro Painters® of Northwest Florida for a free estimate.
