"The job went well. David was here everyday as were other helpers some days. He is one of the hardest workers we have ever hired! They repaired termite damage and cracking stucco and then painted everything even our decks and wood railings. We also appreciated how well they cleaned up at the end if each day as well as when the job was over. My neighbors, who is a retired contractor, was impressed with the work too!"

The team members are professional, polite, and pay attention to the details. They also completed the job in a timely manner. Great job done!"

"It went very well and they did a good job with the painting. They were very professional and the clean-up was pretty good. There were no major problems. The service cost was in the thousands. They seemed to be a little expensive, but they did a good job. I would use them again in the future."

"Jack and Brian are true painting pro's. Jack did a great job installing crown molding and 7 new doors/casings and trim. Set up a spray booth to paint the doors and moldings in the house. As a result no brush marks in the finish. They look great.Very pleased with the workmanship and attention to detail. Highly recommend."

"I used Wizard Painting again this week. As usual, Francisco and his crew did a wonderful job. I hired them to paint our banister, landing walls, hallway, and door frames. The paint job is perfect, the painters were friendly and courteous, the clean up was excellent, and the price was good. I am very happy, and I will definitely use them again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

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.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.
