Every few years, you should stain your wooden deck to improve its appearance and protect the wood from rot. But don’t just slap a coat of stain on in a hurry — you’ll need to clean your deck before staining it. The DiMora Team are real estate experts in the Novi and Northville neighborhoods and we know that if you stain a deck without cleaning and prepping it first, the results will look blotchy and uneven. Any time you save skipping the cleaning stage, you’ll spend twice over repairing the botched job. Homeowners can clean, repair, and restain a deck themselves, but it’s a lengthy project that may take an entire weekend, or multiple weekends – although much of this is drying time.. Before you even clean your deck, purchase the stain. The stain you choose will determine the best method to clean your deck. Aside from formula, stains also vary in transparency. Make sure you buy enough stain to cover the deck with as many coats as the instructions recommend. Check out below to see what sold in Chase Farms in June 2021:

Don’t underbuy your stain — if you wait too long to apply later purchased stain, you’ll be able to see the divide between the first and second round of staining.
