"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!"

"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."

"Our experience with Rafferty Painting was very positive. They are professional, responsive and provide quality work. <br /> We called Mike on Thursday afternoon about getting an estimate, thinking it would be several days before that could be arranged. <br />  However, they were working on a job not too distant from our property and offered to come by that same day.  Patrick arrived in about an hour, reviewed what we needed to have done and gave us a fair estimate for the work.  He said the work would be done very soon, though hard to predict due to the rainy pattern of weather we'd been experiencing.  Sure enough, Patrick and his crew arrived on Monday morning and went straight to work. They finished the entire job in one day and did an outstanding job. <br /> After searching for a long time, it was wonderful to finally find a company that specializes in metal roof painting, and provides quality service.  We highly recommend this company. <br />"

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Upper-fairmount, 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.
