As the snow begins to melt and the days get longer, images of spring may soon come to our minds. Of course, this weather shift from snow to rainy spring days to sunny summer afternoons may cause a little anxiety. For example, the damage of the elements can wreak some serious havoc on our home’s siding, doors, decks, and windows. In fact, constant sunlight can break down the lignin that holds wood fibers together which can result in water seeping in and rotting boards and shingles. Fortunately, painting these surfaces with an exterior stain is an excellent option. Easy to apply, resistant to peeling, and capable of bringing out wood’s natural texture or grain, stains offer many wonderful perks that you can enjoy all year long. Read on to discover the best stains for homes, including options from Sikkens and Old Masters.
