Expert Tips for Deck Staining: How to Achieve a Professional Look
Wood decks are known for their rich colors and wood grain patterns, and the best way to highlight these is with deck staining. Unfortunately, your deck’s stain can deteriorate over time, leaving it looking unattractive and exposed to the elements.
You don’t need to put up with a run-down, faded deck. If your deck needs a refresh, turn to the deck staining experts at TrueDecks.
We at TrueDecks provide a wide range of deck services, including staining. We can restain your old deck or add stain to a new deck. With so many stains and styles to choose from, we’re sure that we have a stain that’s perfect for you and your deck in Gaithersburg, MD.
Why Should I Restain My Deck?
Staining your deck can revive the color and wood grain pattern, making it look new again.
Over time, your deck’s stain will wear away because of the elements..
Restaining your deck offers the following benefits:
- Weather protection: Restaining will prevent further damage from inclement weather.
- Increased lifespan: Your deck surface will last longer with new staining.
- Heat and water protection: Restaining can protect your deck from water and heat damage.
- Improved visual appeal: New stains look beautiful, adding aesthetic value.
- Updated look and feel: Your deck won’t look or feel old anymore.
- Fixes safety hazards: Restaining prevents splinters and other potential safety issues.
- Prepares it for frequent usage: Frequent usage can wear an unstained deck down.

Should I Restain or Refinish My Deck?
Not sure if you should restain or refinish your deck? No worries! Here’s the difference between these two services.
Deck staining involves applying an exterior deck stain to a deck.
On the other hand, deck refinishing replaces the deck’s entire surface, which is more costly and time intensive. Deck refinishing works best in situations where your deck’s surface is rotting, decaying, falling apart, or otherwise unsafe.
If your deck merely needs a new varnish, staining is the way to go. Our experts at TrueDecks can inspect your deck and decide what works best in your specific circumstances.

See What Our Clients Say
Elizabeth Rabin They did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend them. They were a pleasure to work with. Jason Lee For years, and at two different houses, I used TrueDecks to seal my back deck and I was a very happy customer. They always did great work. But this past Fall, I engaged them to (1) replace my back deck with a new one, and (2) repair and extend the bricked floor of my carport underneath my deck. Both projects came out absolutely fantastic--I'm thrilled with the results and so happy that I used TrueDecks to complete the work. They have a great team and the finished product is so, so worth it. I wholeheartedly recommend them to anyone in the area who's thinking of redoing a deck and areas around the deck. Paul Mannes The Team and Service Desk for TrueDecks have been very easy to work with and be sensitive to our requirements. The work was done per our agreed upon schedule and the on-site team with easy to communicate with and skilled. All in all, a project planned and executed to our approval. Thank you TrueDecks. Mary Eng True Decks did an excellent job in replacing my balcony deck. They were professional, efficient, and methodical in their work. Their work is stellar and I would not hesitate to recommend them if you need any type of deck work or repair. Ellen Schaefer-Salins TrueDecks took down a 60 year old deck and made a beautiful new and larger deck for my home. They do quality work and were responsive to a few communication issues. I would recommend them to others! ramiro Excellent work! Absolutely recommend!!! Matt Watkins I felt as though I could have a respectful conversation with a knowledgeable deck contractor about what I needed, and then the price was right. Lori Burge We hired TrueDecks after my friend referred us. We had them power wash the house and deck which was done very well. Today we had technician Selvin replace 5 rotted post. My husband built our deck 27 years ago and he is very picky about who works on it. After Selvin was done my husband was beaming. Selvin did an exceptional job. The last piece of this work will come later this week with the final staining of our deck. At this rate I'm sure the deck will look new. We have been extremely please with all the work from TrueDecks so far. I can't wait for the stain to be completed so I can enjoy my new 27 year old outside room. Thank you TrueDecks. Sara Ahlgren TrueDecks really came through after a storm damaged half of the railings of my back deck. They not only replaced the railings, they improved them but in a fashion that didn't look out of place with the remaining railings. They also powerwashed and stained the whole deck so it doesn't look obviously repaired.
