What Deck & Outdoor Work Here Actually Involves
A mix of Victorians near Cleary Square, 1920s–1950s single-families through Fairmount and Readville, and postwar capes and ranches on the outer edges. More vinyl and aluminum siding than you'll find in Dorchester.
What Decks Need and When They Need It
What drives the price
Condition decides everything. Bare or lightly weathered wood takes stain readily and the job is a wash, dry and coat. A deck with a failing film finish has to be stripped or sanded back to bare first, and on a large deck that stripping can cost more than the staining that follows it.
How the work is sequenced
Wash, then dry properly — we use a moisture meter rather than a guess, because a deck that looks dry on the surface can still be wet inside. Repairs and fastener work next, then stain applied out of direct sun so the carrier does not flash off before the pigment can wick into the grain.
Where it usually goes wrong
Staining wood that is still wet inside is the single most common mistake, and the stain sheds within a season because it never penetrated. The second is choosing a film-forming product on a horizontal surface that gets full sun and standing water — it looks excellent for two years and then peels in sheets.
How long it takes
Two to four days for a typical deck including wash and dry-out. We will not stain within 48 hours of rain regardless of how the surface looks, and we would rather move a date than coat a wet board.
