Deck & Fence Staining in New Port Richey, FL.
Deck & Fence Staining for New Port Richey homes, done by experienced Tampa Bay painting crews. Wood decks and fences take a beating in Tampa Bay that wood in drier climates never sees, near-daily summer humidity, afternoon thunderstorms that soak the wood and then bake it dry within hours, and UV exposure that breaks down cheap sealants fast. A quality stain and sealant job slows that cycle down considerably, but we're not going to promise you a lifespan that ignores how hard this climate actually is on exterior wood.

Plan on recoating every 1 to 2 years for a deck that gets full sun exposure, versus 2 to 3 years for a shaded deck, shorter than the 3 to 5 year range you'd hear quoted for drier climates.

Why does my fence look gray even though it was stained recently?
Gray, weathered wood usually means the UV protection in the stain has broken down faster than the wood tone itself changed, which happens quickly here given how much direct sun most fence lines get. It's also a sign the sealant has stopped repelling water, which you can check by splashing water on the wood, if it beads up, you're still protected, if it soaks in immediately, it's time to recoat.
