Deck Stain vs Paint

The right deck finish starts with the condition of the existing surface and the appearance you want. Staining and painting are separate offerings. Neither should be chosen without discussing preparation and compatibility with the current coating.

Compare the finished appearance

Ask how much wood grain you want to see, what color coverage you prefer and how horizontal boards and vertical rails will look together. Review the actual proposed product rather than assuming every stain is transparent or every finish has the same maintenance needs.

Compare the complete scope

Cleaning, stripping, sanding and application are different line items to clarify. Show the existing finish, peeling areas and damaged boards. A price comparison between staining and painting is only useful when the quoted surfaces and preparation are comparable.
