We partner directly with manufacturers of the highest-quality, contractor-grade stains and sealers for both water and oil based products. This relationship ensures we apply specialized, top-performing materials specifically engineered for superior endurance, guaranteeing exceptional durability and the best possible long-term protection for your outdoor wood structures.

When choosing a stain, the level of transparency (or opacity) is key. It determines both the aesthetic (how much wood grain is visible) and the protective power you need.

For the Natural Look: If the wood is newer, stick with clear, transparent, or semi-transparent stains. These formulas allow the natural beauty of the wood grain to shine through.

For Wood Showing its Age: A semi-solid stain is a better fit to cover visible wear and minor imperfections. You'll still get a peek at the wood grain, but the higher pigment content will effectively hide minor blemishes and offer increased protection.

For Maximum Coverage and Protection: Choose solid wood stains for wood showing significant imperfections, deep wear, or when you simply want a bold splash of color. Solid stains provide the highest concentration of pigment and, consequently, the greatest protection against the elements—making them essential for older, more vulnerable wood.
