"My deck needed to be re-stained. This involved power washing and sanding before the stain was applied. I chose a solid stain. The deck looks really good. The crew was nice, polite, and skilled. I also needed my windows caulked which they did for an additional fee. I have a two story house so it required ladder work. This was accomplished in less than a day. I would hire Bayardo again."
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.

"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."

"Ivan and his crew were absolutely wonderful! They not only painted our entire house a new color, but they also removed and replaced window frames that were rotten or termite damaged. All of their work was top notch: professional, friendly, on-time and with excellent communication skills. My wife and I are so pleased with the job Ivan and his crew did, that we highly recommend him to anyone who needs their house painted; you will not be disappointed, I promise you."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

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.

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.
