"When I called Vargas Painting....."Jorge" was very professional and showed up on time as he promised. He inspected our home.....along with all of the boards. A few boards needed replacing and our home needed painting. Two days later I had his bid. His price was very fair. Jorge is very personable. He had very good ratings on this site, he provided me with his insurance verification without having to be asked. We hired him. He was great to work with us, as I had already planned a two week vacation and didn't want the house painted while I was gone. After the initial deposit (Approx 1/3 of the contract) we made arrangements for when he would start on our home. He was very accommodating. He started working on the agreed date. He power washed the house. Replaced the rotten boards, calked and sealed and scraped and finally painted. We used two different paints. We instructed him on how we wanted the painting and also asked for his professional opinion on a couple of smaller issues. He painted everything the way that we wanted. Every evening they cleaned up tarps and tools but they did ask if they could leave them behind our home. At the end of everyday Jorge communicated with us what was done that day, and what would be done the next day. Everything went so smoothly. The home was painted in a week. Jorge asked me on the final day to do a complete walk around on the house and make him a list of anything that was missed or that needed to be touched up or redone. My husband is very picky and he was very pleased with the job. We have other jobs around the house.....as we will be repainting our kitchen and bathrooms along with staining our kitchen cabinets. We intend on hiring Vargas painting again and again!"

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

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.

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.
