"I hired Deck Armor to stain my existing deck, which is approximately 400 sq w/a staircase and small landing. I had previously stained the deck myself on an annual basis w/a semi-transparent stain. The semi-transparent stain never held up and would always look terrible about 6 months later. I hired Deck Armour to wash, sand, and stain my deck with a solid stain and could not be happier. They were exceptionally clean and addressed all my concerns. I opted for the "delux" package, which consisted of two coats of primer and a single coat of paint, in the hopes it will last as long as they tell me. It was not cheap but well worth it if I get years of enjoyment out of my deck w/o having to sand and stain it myself!"

"Last year we were trying to find someone to clean our windows and were having a hard time. I contacted 1st State Window Cleaning in DE and spoke to the owner, Steve (great guy!) At first, he said they did not travel to our area in NJ, but then said he would do it, I am so glad that Steve was willing to send his crew to our home. We were so happy with their work that we hired them to clean the windows at our business too. This is the 2nd time they've been at our home, and the workers are very professional and friendly. Darryl has been on all our jobs and is very nice -- an asset to the company. Antonio was working with him on this job and they did an outstanding job -- great teamwork. Will definitely use them in the future, and would recommend their window cleaning services to others."

"The end result was very good indeed. In addition to doing a nice job with my large deck (which was a mess) and its furniture, they cleaned the sidewalk and our front porch. We did have a moment of concern when rain cancelled our original appointment; because they were booked up all that week (and we had an outdoor party planned for the weekend), the proprietor had to fit in our cleaning between other appointments. He promised me that the cleaning would be done that week, and was true to his word."

"The siding of our house facing northwest had accumulated mold and residue. MPW thoroughly washed it off without denting the vinyl siding. They also power washed the concrete foundation around the base of our house as well as the walkway to our front entrance and stairs down to the basement. We could really see the difference. They were professional, came on time, with their truck to provide power. We would use them again. They deserve an A rating."

"The work was out standing and very professedly done. I would definitely recommend them to anyone!! The workers were always very polite and friendly. They cleaned up after themselves and left the yard in great shape. They protected my windows and flag pole with pieces of plywood to keep anything from getting broken!! Great job Ferris I love the work you have done for me."

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Childs, MD

You should clean your deck before sealing it. Cleaning before refinishing is critical. If you don’t remove dirt and debris, you'll trap moisture in the wood, which prevents the new sealer from working correctly and can lead to costly repairs. Whether you need to sand, power wash, or sandblast depends on your deck's condition.

Sealing and staining your deck are essential maintenance methods that protect and beautify your outdoor space. Stain adds rich color and guards against fading, while sealant fortifies the wood against moisture and weather damage. Wood type, climate, deck age, and the degree of existing damage determine whether your deck benefits from one or both treatments. Using both options extends your deck’s durability and enhances its overall appearance.

Power washing and sealing your deck costs $500 to $1,700. This process combines the removal of stubborn dirt and debris with a protective seal that preserves the wood’s integrity. Effective cleaning eliminates harmful buildup, and a proper seal prevents moisture damage and wood decay, ensuring long-term durability and reducing future repair expenses.

Your deck must be sealed every one to three years to maintain its strength and appearance. Regular sealing is essential to protect the wood against moisture, mold, and harmful UV rays. A consistent sealing schedule prevents rapid deterioration and costly repairs. Inspections should be performed annually to determine if the protective layer remains intact, extending the life of your deck.

Leaving your deck untreated compromises its structural integrity and safety. An unprotected deck rots quickly due to moisture and environmental exposure, which means that neglecting sealing results in rapid decay and expensive replacement costs of $4,125 to $11,650. Sealing your deck is essential for maintaining its durability and protecting your home.

The sealant on your deck dries within a few hours and reaches full cure within 72 hours before regular use. It is essential to wait until the complete curing period to ensure the protective layer fully sets and resists weather and foot traffic. Proper drying guarantees that your deck is fully protected against moisture and environmental damage, ensuring lasting quality.
