"They provided a very well worded and complete estimate. Their price was not the lowest but fair and the professionalism caused us to feel more comfortable with them. We chose all the colors and provided those prior to the job beginning. The crew arrived exactly when they were expected, completely prepared and neat. On the 2nd morning of the job, my wife was stopped by the crew leader. He showed my wife the catalog of stain colors and said he thought our choice for the deck was too dark. He showed a lighter brown and asked her to allow him to go with the lighter color. My wife at first said she wanted to stick with the darker one because it matched the trim and gutters. The foreman was rather insistent and said that he thought she would regret it and that changing away from the darker one would be difficult. By this point my wife was running late for work so she agreed to his suggestion. When we got home that afternoon the crew was finished and the job looked GREAT! Everything was cleaned up well and we loved it. The deck, unfortunately didn't look right. There was a slight purple tint in the brown. We found a couple of small areas that needed touch up and The Painting Company was very responsive to those requests. They sent someone out quickly to let us point out the issues. They were all corrected. At the same time we pointed out that we were not pleased with the color of the deck. The person who was with us questioned why we didn't like it. He pointed out that we had signed off on the color. He also said that, in his opinion, it looked great. We still saw it as a purple and brown mix that we didn't like. He asked us to give it a chance to grow on us. It never did and after a few months we painted it again ourselves. Overall we loved working with The Painting Company. We will use them again, but next time we will stick with our color choices.

"Fantastic company. They did complete exterior painting, including staining large deck, metal railings, and complete refinishing of front door. They are committed to getting things right and are consummate professionals. I can't recommend highly enough. Our neighbors saw their work and hired them on the spot. Great company and we're very pleased with the results."

"The crew that did the work showed up in a timely fashion and did an exceptional job in painting our house and re-staining the deck. In addition, they replaced all the screens and stripping on the screened porch and did little extras like replacing the exterior spotlights on the corners (since they were burned out) while they were up there. The salesman (Donnie Kuba) has an extensive knowledge of the business and was willing to work with us every step of the way. I have him in my phone contacts and will share with any friend or neighbor looking to do similar projects...."

"good experience overall. they started early everyday and left the area clean whe they left. they were very friendly and polite. the only problem was related to our deck. the very last thing they did before the left was washed and seal our deck. they covered the plants and the patio before they sprayed on the sealer which was great but the overspray got on the windows. i ended up washing the windows, but they needed it anyway! we would still recommed them because they did a great job on the house."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.
