How do I know if my deck needs to be restained or repainted?
Signs your deck needs attention include fading color, water soaking into the boards instead of beading, or visible cracks and wear. Stained decks often need recoating more often because stain wears down with sun and rain, while painted decks last longer but can peel if neglected. If you are unsure, our team at Jose’s Painting can inspect your deck in Marietta and give you the best option to restore both its beauty and protection.

What are the benefits of using a solid stain on my deck in Georgia’s climate?
Solid stain gives your deck the look of paint with the added benefit of soaking into the wood. It covers imperfections, provides excellent UV protection, and comes in a wide range of colors to match your siding or trim. In Georgia’s hot sun and humid summers, solid stain lasts longer than semi-transparent options and holds color better. At Jose’s Painting in Marietta, GA 30066, we use premium solid stains to give homeowners a durable finish that requires less frequent maintenance.
