"My husband and I had the outside of hour house painted by Robinson Painting about two weeks ago. The whole process went very well. I can't recommend Robinson Painting enough. Ren and his crew were not only very professional but they were very friendly and approachable as well. Ren responded to any questions we had within a few hours of contacting him (and many times within minutes!). The his crew worked quickly, completed on time and did an excellent job. We are very happy with the quality of the work. After completing the work, Ren walked around the house with us to look for issues and to determine if we were happy. We had one small issue and when I contacted him, he came by the next morning and fixed the issue. He and his crew are very good and work to make sure their customers are happy with the work. Not only did we get wonderful service, but his prices are very reasonable as well. Thank you Ren! We appreciate you and your crew very much. We would hire Robinson Painting again."

"Platinum painting responded quickly and gave me a thorough bid estimate. The challenge was repairing and poor job by a previous contractor. When the job started they were prompt and on the site on time every time. They diligently protected my decking and anything that needed protection. They completed the job as promised and in shorter time than they estimated. They were diligent in clean up. I am pleased with their work and will definitely hire them for future projects."

"I'm a Realtor and Property manager and use Mike exclusively for painting my listings. My clients are always satisfied and Mike probably paints about 20 properties a year for me for the last 7 years. Here's an example of his work. https://www.krystlehomes.com/idx/listing/CA-BAREIS/322005404/106-Farallon-Drive-Vallejo-CA-94590"

"The paint job was done in a timely fashion. Solano Paint was very professional, courteous and did a great job including cleanup after the job was done. There was a problem with the sub they hired to do some structural work, replace dry rot etc., but Solano took care of the problems and made sure the job was done right."

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

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. 

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.
