Prevents The Sun From Damaging Your Deck

You may think that having your deck in a shady spot will keep it protected. However, when your deck is exposed to sunlight the deck fades and loses its color.

Prevents Water From Damaging Your Deck 

Staining your deck regularly prevents water from steeping into your deck. If your deck gets too much water there is a possibility of mold or mild growing which can cause serious health issues. If your deck gets too wet it could also lead to costly repairs.

Improves The Appearance Of Your Deck

Staining improves the appearance of the wood by bringing out its natural beauty. Depending on what you are doing, there are different stains to choose from. Some stains are semi-transparent while others work like paint can cover your deck. There are also tints so you can match your stained decked.

Having your deck stained regularly will make your outdoor space look rejuvenated, while also reducing the need for costly repairs. Ready for a professional to stain your deck? Or would you like to schedule a free remote estimate? Contact CertaPro Painters® of Port St. Lucie, FL today.
