Deck Staining & Sealing in Fort Worth, TX
Protect Your Deck. Enhance Its Beauty. Make It Last.
In Fort Worth, your deck faces a whole lot of weather — intense sun, sudden downpours, high humidity, and the occasional freeze. Over time, all that exposure can leave your deck looking faded, dry, and cracked. That’s where CS Deck Builder Fort Worth comes in. We offer expert deck staining and sealing in Fort Worth, helping homeowners protect their investment and restore the natural beauty of their outdoor space.
Whether your deck is brand new or several years old, staining and sealing isn’t just about looks — it’s about preservation. Without the right protection, even high-end wood can start to break down faster than you’d think.
Why Deck Staining and Sealing Matters
A wood deck is a big investment, and like anything outdoors in Texas, it needs protection. Staining enhances the color and grain of your wood, while sealing helps block moisture and UV rays — both of which are known enemies of outdoor wood.
Here’s why deck sealing and staining is so important in a climate like Fort Worth:
Prevents cracking, warping, and splintering
Guards against rot and mold
Protects against harsh sun exposure
Keeps wood from fading or turning gray
Helps repel water during rainy months
Extends the life of your deck
If you want your deck to stay strong and look great for years, routine deck maintenance is key — and staining and sealing are the foundation of that care.

When to Stain or Seal Your Deck
The best time to stain and seal your deck depends on the age of the wood, the type of material, and the weather. Here’s a general breakdown:
New Decks: Wait about 30–60 days after installation for the wood to dry, then apply stain and sealant.
Older Decks (1+ years): Reapply every 2–3 years, or sooner if you notice water no longer beads on the surface.
After Repairs: If you’ve had a few boards replaced, we can stain the full deck to create an even tone across the surface.
Not sure if your deck needs attention? A simple water test can help. Sprinkle some water on the wood — if it soaks in rather than beads up, it’s time to re-seal.
Our Deck Staining & Sealing Process
We take care of everything — from cleaning and prep to final finish. Here’s what you can expect when you hire CS Deck Builder Fort Worth:
Inspection & Prep:
We examine the deck for signs of rot, loose nails, or cracked boards. Minor repairs are handled first, so your stain goes on smooth and even.
Cleaning:
We remove dirt, mildew, old coatings, and any surface grime with professional-grade cleaners or light pressure washing if needed.
Drying Time:
We let the wood dry fully before applying any product. This ensures proper adhesion and long-lasting protection.
Stain Application:
We apply high-quality, oil-based or water-based stain depending on your deck type and desired finish. We offer transparent, semi-transparent, and solid color options.
Deck Sealing:
We finish the job with a protective sealant to lock in color and moisture protection.
The result? A deck that not only looks amazing, but stands up better to Fort Worth’s unpredictable climate.
Stain & Seal Options to Match Any Look
We offer a range of finishes to suit your style:
Transparent Stains: Show off the natural wood grain with a light tint.
Semi-Transparent Stains: Add richer color while still highlighting wood texture.
Solid Stains: Provide full coverage and UV protection — great for older decks or bolder design choices.
We’ll show you samples, walk you through pros and cons, and help you choose what works best for your deck and your home.
Common Problems We Fix with Deck Maintenance
If you notice any of the following, it’s probably time to give us a call:
Your deck feels dry or brittle
Wood is turning gray or green
Stains or finish are peeling or blotchy
Water soaks into the boards instead of beading
The surface feels rough or splintery
These are all signs that your deck’s protective layer is breaking down. And once water starts getting into the wood? Rot, mold, and decay aren’t far behind. Don’t wait — protect your wood deck before it gets worse.
FAQs About Deck Staining & Sealing in Fort Worth
How often should I stain and seal my deck in Fort Worth?
Most decks need maintenance every 2–3 years, though intense sunlight and rain may shorten that cycle. We'll help you set the right schedule based on your wood type and exposure.
What's the difference between staining and sealing?
Staining adds color and enhances the appearance of the wood. Sealing is what protects the deck from moisture, UV damage, and general wear. We usually do both during the same visit.
Can I stain my deck myself?
You can — but you may not get the same lasting results. Prep is the hardest part, and missing a step (like cleaning or drying) can lead to blotchy results or early failure. We’ve fixed plenty of DIY stain jobs gone wrong.
How long does the process take?
Most jobs take 1–2 days depending on the size of the deck, the drying time needed between steps, and weather conditions.
What’s the best time of year for deck staining in Fort Worth?
Spring and fall are ideal when temperatures are moderate. But as long as it’s dry and not too hot or humid, we can stain year-round.

What Our Client Says About Us
“Exactly What We Wanted”
We had a vision for a two-level deck with a pergola, and CS Deck Builder Fort Worth made it happen.

The team was on time every day, cleaned up after themselves, and the final result looks even better than the renderings. We use the space daily now.
Lindsey T., Arlington Heights
“Brought Our Old Deck Back to Life”
Our deck was about 12 years old and totally falling apart. We thought we’d have to rip it out, but they were honest and said a full deck repair would do the trick. They replaced some of the framing, sanded everything down, and stained it. Looks brand new. Super glad we didn’t waste money starting over.
Carlos R., Benbrook
“Great for Poolside Projects
We added a pool last year and needed a new deck around it that wouldn’t get too slippery. CS Deck Builder Fort Worth helped us pick composite material that stays cool and safe for the kids. Their crew finished the install fast and left no mess behind. We host friends almost every weekend now.
