## Signs you need deck staining & sealing

## Local context
Sun and moisture in the foothills gray unprotected decks quickly; most East Tennessee decks benefit from a fresh coat every two to three years.

## FAQ
### How long after pressure washing can you stain?
Wood needs to dry thoroughly — typically 24 to 48 hours in good weather — before stain will penetrate properly.
