"Brett took the time to really inspect our stucco house in Pleasanton and pointed out some fascia which needed to be repaired, along with some damage to the back of the house which I hadn't noticed. Neither of the other painters I called were so detailed in their inspections nor in their estimates. Brett and his helper were polite and hardworking. We were quite pleased with the job and would recommend Brett's Painting highly."

"I hired Juan to sand and restain our double front door and to apply solid stain to our fence. He did a fantastic job on both. He was prompt, courteous and professional. His pricing was good and it was a good value for what he delivered. I would not hesitate to hire him again."

"Jeff and his crew were professional, prompt, did an excellent job of prepping our deck that was in bad shape, and painting the deck, posts and railings and making it look beautiful again. They cleaned everything up and helped put things back together again for us. We highly recommend Jeff and his very nice and efficient crew."

"This father and son team did an excellent job on staining my redwood deck and painting the entire outside of my home. I feel fortunate to be able to find truly professional painters that change a fair price for their work. I would not hesitate to recommend them to family and friends. Good people and excellent workmanship all at a very competitive price. Thank you Mark and Josh."

"Bayardo and his team were fantastic! They were on time every day, cleaned up after themselves, and did a wonderful job repairing dry rot and painting. Bayardo is so thorough with his inspections and work. They do a job the right way."
Before pictures
(Before Pic)Home was pressure washed with a 3000 psi machine to remove as much dirt and grime from the exterior house wall surfaces before painting. We sanded all the bad areas and spot primed them before painting. Used caulking to seal any open grooves and open wood joints as needed.
(Before l) This photo shows the condition of the cabinet before it was refinished. You can see the stain is faded and clear coat is chipping away from water damage and moisture in the air.
Exterior Repaint
Prepped the door for painting. Sanded it then primed it. Removed the door handle and carefully covered the hinges before spray painting the door.

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.
