"We hired John to paint our 50+ year old house. When it was last painted, the contractor did not seal the wood or the concrete block and after 5 years, paint was chipping and wood was splitting. John's workers took care of all of that - pressure washing, scraping, and painting with two coats of excellent paint. John used paint with a slight (very) sheen so that the house actually sparkles a bit. He worked with us on the colors (a darker grey for the house and a pretty medium blue for the double front door). They even came back a few days later to catch a few places that needed touch-up after it all dried. Great attention to detail! The entire crew and John were a pleasure to work with!"

"I would 100% hands down recommend Charles & Alex Painting to everyone! I submitted an inquiry on a Friday, received a call just 15 min later saying they could come out and do a quote and was here about 20 min later. They started just 2 days later on that Monday, worked all day Monday and just a few hours on Tuesday and they had the whole house complete! We could not be more satisfied!!"

"I hired the AZ Painting Co to repaint the exterior of my small stucco home. They also replaced some rotting wood and power washed a small stain on my block wall. At the time they were offering a 10% discount. I thought they did a great job, worked quickly and efficiently and I would definitely hire them again!"

"Great! Rick, Rob and Rob Jr showed up right on time and set to work. Cleaning, sealing and masking prep work and a lot of the painting done the first day, with finish on second day, in spite of massive wind storm over night. Thoroughly professional, helpful in explaining the job to me, suggestions for colors, super cleanup after. House looks WAY better than it has in many years. Top marks altogether and highly recommended! R and R delivers."

"Exterior painting of our house and exterior cinder block walls and planter boxes The crew showed up on time and ready to work (even in the extreme heat). Crash of Rhinos actually had a spot open up a month before our scheduled date- so we were happy to take it! My mother in law (who lived with us) got sick so the crew had no problem delaying painting for a day. When my MIL passed away unexpectedly...we received a sympathy card from Crash of Rhinos as well. The speed/professionalism/courtesy of their workers is great... and we have no complaints! I will not hesitate to call them for any future projects...And I have referred two others to them for for painting as well."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

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.
