"Zach was absolutely amazing! He is so easy to work with. He replied to all my texts with all the information I needed. He and Zoey cleaned and prepped our deck one day, and painted it the following day. Our deck looks incredible! They both have a very strong work ethic, and they are very congenial as well."

"We happened to see Brandon working at a neighbor’s and asked him if he could cut our yard as we were moving in. The backyard was so overgrown! He cut the yard, trimmed bushes, edged everything, cleaned up all of the limbs, etc and did it without his assistant who was under the weather. Also did some weed control! Brandon did a great job and worked quickly at an affordable price. He guarantees his work. Highly recommend!"

"Jason and his men came in and did exactly what they said they would do. They disposed of the old deck I had and built me a covered 10×20 deck. My yard was kept clean at all times and they didnt waste any time in putting together my new deck. Would recommend to anyone. They do a wide variety of work. Call affordable handyman !!"

"Awesome work. Hired Gary to do some drywall installation and paint livingroom, kitchen, and entry way. Was able to fix issue I had and make house look much better. Looks better than when I purchased it. Also was able to fix small things around the house that needed to while there. Will definitely hire again if the need arises."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.
