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
Philly I recently had my deck and patio landing area redone by Truedecks, and I couldn’t be happier with the results! The team, led by Pavel, was exceptional. They were not only highly skilled but also incredibly neat and organized throughout the project. Pavel ensured that everything ran smoothly, and the craftsmanship speaks for itself. Carlos, who was part of the team, was equally fantastic—hardworking, precise, and dedicated to delivering top-quality work. The final result exceeded my expectations. Tracy Schneider I highly recommend True Decks (Deck Master) - Fernando Rivera came by, spent a couple hours explaining all the choices and answering all our questions. They were able to do exactly what we wanted (compared to other companies who wouldn't) and they promptly sent my estimate. (Note: They were 1/2 of what another company quoted). Since mine was a 'small' job (see picture), they were able to squeeze me in while waiting on permits/materials on other jobs. When they called right after the snowstorm on Sunday and said they could come on Wednesday, I was surprised. Selvin Aguilera and his assistant Luis showed up bright and early Wednesday in 30 degree weather and proceeded to work all day. I was VERY impressed with their meticulous attention to detail. I could tell they are very proud of their work. By Thursday at noon - another day of freezing temps and wild winds - they were finished, and it is beautiful! I highly recommend them for anyone wanting a new porch or deck. B Thomas I was very pleased with the work performed on my deck. Needed a few floor boards and handrail replaced and a power wash and stain. TrueDecks did an excellent job at a fair price. Will definitely use them again. Margarita Rodriguez I replace my deck with the True decks company located in Gaithersburg. I am so happy with my new deck. The ream was always friendly, responsive and accommodating to my needs and wishes. They did an excellent job. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for quality and excellent service. Karen Gonzalez The experience was awesome! Thank you for a wonderful job! Yanshuo Sun Very responsive and professional. Highly recommend True Deck if you need to repair your deck. Asha Barrett Great job, efficient! Their recommendation got the job done and saved us some money! Would use them again. Mark Nakamura Truedecks did an excellent job removing my old wood deck and replacing it with a new Trex deck. My old deck had been afflicted by a fungus for years and ultimately needed replacement. Carlos was one of the few contractors that had seen my particular problem and guided me through planning of the new deck to hopefully prevent future problems. Throughout the job, he and customer service were very responsive and attentive to my questions and concerns. In the end, I was very happy with the results! Channing Work it’s definitely hard to find a company that lives up to their rating. True Decks has been amazing. They installed a brand new perimeter fence, which ended up looking exactly how we specified. They are installing a deck and it’s beautiful and they have been very speedy but also very thorough during the construction. The two guys that have been working for us for both of the projects have been incredibly friendly considerate if there’s ever even the slightest glitch, they talk to us about it to make sure everything’s OK and then they fix it. This is the company you want to go with you may spend a little bit more than a contractor that you find on craigslist, but it’s worth it
