Staining is similar to painting in many ways. Although more challenging, the wood stain should be applied with attention and care. Read more to find out about our professional wood staining services! What are some things you should know about wood staining?

What Is Wood Staining? 

Wood stain is a type of paint used to color wood and consists of coloring components dispersed or suspended in a 'vehicle' or solvent.

Staining Vs. Painting

Stain protects and preserves your wood, whereas paint covers and hides it. Stain wears away gradually, so periodic recoating is necessary. Paint peeling, however, requires extensive scraping.

Three Main Things To Stain (Indoors and Outdoors) 

Stains are often transparent, making it difficult to achieve a consistent finish. There is usually more complexity involved with staining wood as it needs to be applied correctly.

Somerset Painting can get the job done right the first time around, which is why we offer staining as a service. Some essential items that need to be adequately stained are the following: 

• Outdoor decks
• Indoor handrails, spindles, and stair treads
• Wood front entry doors 

Because of Michigan's climate, anything made of wood does not last very long. If properly stained and looked after, surfaces such as those mentioned above can last you a lifetime. 

We specialize in wood rejuvenation to ensure your wooden doors, back patios, and indoor stairs are adequately maintained.
