Exterior Stain

EXTERIOR STAIN

If your home features wood siding, a wood deck, wooden fencing, or wooden outdoor furniture, you will want to consider our selection of exterior stains. These stains are specially designed to provide protection and beauty for the wood surfaces outside your home. They are available in a wide selection of colors, so you aren't limited to natural wood stains alone. Some stains are even suitable for cured stucco, masonry, and fiber-cement siding, making them great for all-around exterior work on your home. At John Paul's Paint & Decor, we offer outdoor wood stains from two of the best deck stain brands, Benjamin Moore and Old Masters.

Benefits of Exterior Stain

Wooden decks, fencing, siding, porches, and furniture can all be stunning additions to your home's exterior. However, these pieces are also uniquely susceptible to natural elements, making exterior stain a much-needed addition to your paint toolkit. Outdoor wood stain provides several benefits for the wooden structures in your life.

Stop Rot

Natural wood is brown to rot, especially when outside in a moisture-rich environment. This is part of the life cycle of trees, and while it might be suitable for the creatures and plants in your garden, rot is not good for your fence or deck. Exterior stains seep into the wood and seal the pores, creating a barrier that stops decay before it can start. Our best deck stain brands also keep out mold, mildew, and termites.

Protection From the Elements

In addition to keeping out the mold and mildew that might cause rot, our exterior stains protect your wooden surfaces from UV damage, rain, sleet, and snow. The sun's rays can cause wooden structures to fade and crack, and if moisture penetrates those cracks and then freezes, it can cause the wood to split. Applying an outdoor wood stain from Benjamin Moore or Old Masters will shield the wood and prevent cracks from forming.

Increased Durability

The wooden siding, fences, decks, porches, and furniture at your home need to withstand more than just the weather. Foot traffic, wind, spills, scrapes, impacts, and more can affect your wooden surfaces' integrity. Our exterior stains are specifically formulated to withstand wear and tear. The outdoor wood stains are easy to apply and are engineered to not chip or flake from foot traffic.

Keep The Natural Beauty

Often homeowners choose wood as a construction material because they love the natural warmth and texture. Unlike exterior paints, our exterior stains allow you to keep those beautiful colors and grain patterns while still offering the protection your surfaces need. We offer a variety of opacities and thousands of color options, allowing you to pick a tint as natural or colorful as you want. We even offer clear outdoor wood stains if you're in love with the raw color of the wood.

Easy Application

One of the best things about our outdoor wood stains is they are easy to apply. These exterior stains can be directly applied to untreated wood without a primer. If you are working with previously stained or painted wood, we also offer preparation products to help create a nice surface for your new stain. These exterior stains are also made to last, so you will only need to apply stain once every few years.
