"Our deck had become unsafe for the kids and dog to play on. Central Coast Decks and Siding inspected everything and explained why the boards were failing. Instead of pushing a total rebuild, they recommended a repair that made it feel brand new without breaking the bank. The team was respectful, patient with all my questions, and even fixed a railing I did not know was loose. I will be recommending them to everyone on our street."

"We hired Diamond Finish Painting and Stain to repaint the entire interior of our home and found the crew a pleasure to work with, but communication from the owner who bid the job and works to be performed rather lacking. The crew clearly was not informed that the owner had promised in writing daily clean up, limiting the tools and materials to areas being worked in over even which surfaces were to be painted. In addition, the owner/contractor gave a 2.5-week schedule with a maximum time of three weeks and said 4 people would be working on the job to get it done in this time frame. While there was one day that four people worked on the house, the majority of the time there were only two. The job was completed in four weeks. The two primary members of the crew working on the job were both very nice and accommodating towards requests and reminders of things the owner had assured us would be done (in writing). Little things like limiting the washout of tools to one area instead of every sink in the hose and around several hose bis outside or dumping paint residue on the lawn, in hedges, or just the ground. Other things to be aware of. We have had several houses painted in the past 5 years and never had a contractor who did not at least attempt to use dust prevention methods when sanding surfaces like door jambs. We were shocked and dismayed that the crew was neither provided with nor used any type of dust vacuum when power sanding, nor did they wear respirators to avoid inhaling dust and debris when sanding. The end result of this was that after having our house painted we needed to spend an additional $700 to have our vents cleaned and a professional clean service professional vacuum the entire house despite the fact that we removed all furniture from the house ( except 1 oversized sofa and table in the family room) before the crew began work. All and all, the work performed was solid work. The painting looks nice and while not perfect it would likely not be noticeable to most people. We have since had both our contractor and real estate broker over to see the finished interior and both commented virtually the same that while, not the best work they have seen, that most people would not notice the imperfections that they do. Diamond Painting and finish were one of 6 bids we received for painting the inside of our home. They were the third-highest bid and almost double the two lowest bids, but ultimately we felt most comfortable with the sales pitch and commitments that the owner/contractor made and choose them. The finished painting is definitely a 4 in our opinion but the level of service, required follow-up from us, additional costs to clean the house, and time it took to complete the job definitely bring the overall rating of the work down."

"Jeremy, Julius, Dan and the whole Paneless team are awesome! They provided a very detailed estimate regarding the house prep, type of paint, # of coats and timing of getting the job done. They also have an in-house carpenter to help with the often times needed minor repairs on decks and fascia board before painting to make sure the structure is sound before working on the cosmetic. They were all very respectful and did a good job of daily clean-up through all the stages of work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone wanting quality work on a big job and getting it done right the first time. This was a big job on a beach house with very tall two story decks, railings and sides that required 30ft ladders and a lot of prep work on wood and metal beams and flashing. Jeremy was great in keeping the whole crew on time and within budget."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.

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.
