Deck Staining FAQs
How often does my wood deck need to be sealed?
Most deck stains and sealants last between 2 to 4 years, depending on your climate, sun exposure, and the type of product used. A visual test (sprinkle water on the deck) will tell you when it’s time to re-seal.
Can a handyman replace severely rotten deck joists?
No. Extensive structural repairs, especially to deck joists or support posts, should be handled by a licensed general contractor or a specialized deck builder. Handymen typically handle minor board replacements or railing repairs.
