Post-war ranches and lake cottages built 1950–1990, many with aluminum or vinyl siding around Waterford's 34 lakes.

Deck Staining Questions — Waterford, MI

How often should a deck be stained?

In Michigan, most decks need re-staining every 2–3 years. Decks with heavy sun exposure or no overhead cover may need annual maintenance.

Can you stain a new deck?

New pressure-treated lumber needs 3–6 months of weathering before staining. New cedar or redwood can be stained immediately after installation.

What's better: solid stain or semi-transparent?

Semi-transparent stains show wood grain and are easier to maintain. Solid stains hide imperfections and last longer but require more prep for recoating.
