Deck staining in State College & Boalsburg, PADeck Staining

Stains and sealers that bring tired wood back to life and protect decks, fences and porches for years.

Bare, gray wood isn't just tired-looking — it's unprotected.

We clean and prep decks, fences and porch floors, then apply stains and sealers that feed the wood and shield it from sun, rain and snow.

Solid, semi-transparent or clear — we'll help you choose what fits the wood and the look you want.

What's included

  • Decks, fences & porches
  • Cleaned & prepped first
  • Solid, semi or clear finishes
  • Sun & weather protection

How we clean, prep and stain a deck

Gray, bare wood has to be cleaned before it can take stain. We wash off dirt, mildew and old, failing finish.

Then the wood has to dry, and the timing depends on the weather.

We check for rough spots and sand where needed.

Stain or sealer goes on in even coats and is worked into the wood.

We note any loose or damaged boards and tell you what we see.

Why decks in State College need a protective finish

A deck here takes summer sun, heavy rain, snow and ice.

Wood that gets wet and freezes over and over tends to crack and turn gray.

A good stain or sealer slows that down.

Shaded decks in Boalsburg and around Centre County tend to stay damp and grow mildew.

Sunny decks dry out and fade. We pick the finish with that exposure in mind.
