Frequently Asked Questions About Deck Staining and Refinishing

However, the process requires expertise for the perfect application. We, at Infinity Painting, provide professional deck staining services that will not only enhance your deck’s look but also ensure its durability.
Can you stain over a deck that is already stained?
While it is possible to stain over a previously stained deck, the process requires thorough preparation to ensure optimal results. The condition of the previous stain, the cleanliness of the deck, and the type of the new stain all play significant roles in the final outcome. This process can be tricky, and consulting with a professional, like Infinity Painting, can save you time and provide a better finish.
Do I really need to sand my deck before staining?
Sanding can be an important step in deck staining as it opens up the wood’s pores for better stain absorption. It can significantly improve the final finish and longevity of the stain, particularly on older decks or those with existing coatings. However, not all decks require sanding, and a professional evaluation from Infinity Painting can guide you on the best preparation methods for your specific deck.
