"Brushworks did a wonderful job painting the exterior of my house and staining the pergola. Top notch communication, very professional painters, did a great job. The house looks gorgeous! They touched up additional areas as needed and removed an old direct TV dish. Overall, very pleased with my experience."

"I recently hired Sunset Painting for an exterior paint job on my home, and I am thrilled with the outcome. Russell, the owner, demonstrated exceptional professionalism and skill throughout the entire process. He arrived on time each day, treated my property with respect, and kept the work area neat and tidy. Russellâ s thorough preparation of the surfaces ensured a flawless and durable finish. His meticulous attention to detail was evident in every aspect of his work. Russell not only delivered outstanding quality but also adhered to the project timeline and budget. His color suggestions were perfect, and my home looks amazing. I highly recommend Sunset Painting for any painting project. Russellâ s commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction is unparalleled. I highly recommend him!"

"It was a pleasure to work with the owner of this company who gave us quality work for a very fair price. The work crew was all professional, respectful, friendly, and they kept our property clean and picked up during the work process. They painted both my deck and some of my interior walls (matched to the other paint on my walls perfectly!) I highly recommend Paneless Painting Company for any interior or exterior work needed. A-1 crew."

"Came and did an estimate for our deck railing.  Scheduled a date, but the day before it looked like rain, so he initiated a change of date, then did the job then.  No glitches, no problems.  Seems professional and we plan to use him again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Oxygen bleach uses hydrogen peroxide as a base and won’t harm wood when using it as a cleaner. On the other hand, chlorine bleach breaks down wood at the cellular level and causes irreversible harm. Although you may not see immediate damage to wood after exposing it to chlorine bleach, its strength and integrity are now compromised.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
