Deck Staining & Sealing
in New Jersey

Most deck staining projects run a few hundred to the low four figures depending on deck size, condition, and prep needed (stripping an old finish adds work). We measure and give a free, written estimate.

Most decks need re-staining every 2–3 years here — sooner for shore-area or sun-exposed decks. If water no longer beads on the boards, it's time to reseal.

Always. We wash and, where needed, brighten and sand the wood first. Staining over a dirty or weathered surface keeps the stain from penetrating and shortens how long it lasts.

Transparent shows the most grain but offers less UV protection; solid hides grain but protects most and covers older wood well. Semi-transparent is a popular middle ground. We'll recommend based on your deck's age and the look you want.

Yes, but new pressure-treated wood often needs to dry out for a period before it will accept stain. We'll check the moisture and advise on timing so it bonds properly.

Stain and sealer for walking surfaces. Paint on decks peels under feet. We will say if a board should be replaced instead.
