Guidelines for Deck Staining

Homeowners have a few deck staining options. Owners can let their decks weather naturally with no stain or stain the decks to match the house siding color (refer to Painting Guidance for siding color palette), as was originally approved for our cluster. Additionally, there are three transparent stains that were recently approved for our cluster by the Reston Association (RA) Design Review Board (DRB): Behr brand "Natural Clear", Behr brand "Cedartone" and Behr brand "Browntone". These stains can be purchased at Home Depot or any other vendor that carries Behr brand stains. Contact our RA rep, Heidi, if you have additional questions. As always, if you want to stain a color other then what is approved for our cluster you will need to submit a design change application and obtain approval through the RA DRB.
