"My neighbor got his house painted by Jay’s. I could see the nice job that was done on their house so hired him to do mine. I did not even bother getting other bids. Jay and his crew were very efficient. From the power washing to masking, scraping, caulking and spraying, the job was done in less than 3 days. Jay was back and forth but monitored his guys closely and made them keep to his standards. Afterwards they cleaned up everything and put things back that had to be moved. I can highly recommend Jay’s painting and will probably hire them to do some inside work for me down the road. I’ve had several neighbors complement my house color which is a pinkish coral. It’s not everyone’s cup of tea but Jay didn’t judge my choice or try to sway me to a different color. Jay is a nice guy and we got along great. You will like him too."

"Joshua did a terrific job painting our home, separate garage and staining our porch. We presented a challenging job with a two-story home with dormer windows and three-color paint requirement. Two of the colors were on the window trim. There also was a need to do some dry rot repair some of which we knew about at the time of the bid and some additional issues that we became aware of as the job progressed. He had a three-person crew (including Josh) and all worked exceptionally hard and were pleasant to have on the job site."

"Timon's crew did an excellent job painting the outside of our home and external structures. They worked with us to get to difficult areas blocked by bushes and were rigorous with making sure all external boundary walls were painted. They were meticulous about painting all surfaces neatly. And they cleaned up thoroughly each day. I recommend them highly. Garth Hoffmann El Dorado Hills"

"My wife and I purchased a brand new home and the garage was not textured or painted. I got several quotes for the project. Nathan's quote wasn't the least expensive, but he was very detail oriented and said he could complete the project in a timely manner. He showed up on time and he and his crew did a great job! They finished in 2 days, when others had quoted up to a week to complete."

"A-1 Quality Painting recently completed a fence staining project at my home, and I couldnâ t be happier with the results. From start to finish, the team was professional, efficient, and highly skilled. They arrived on time, prepped the area carefully, and took the time to protect surrounding landscaping, which I really appreciated. The quality of the stain application was exceptionalâ every inch of the fence is evenly coated, and the color is exactly what I had envisioned. What really stood out to me was their attention to detail. They made sure every board was thoroughly covered, including those hard-to-reach spots, and they cleaned up everything perfectly when the job was done. The entire crew was courteous and respectful, and they finished the project within the agreed timeframe and budget. My fence looks brand new, and Iâ m confident it will be protected for years to come thanks to the quality materials and expert craftsmanship provided by A-1 Quality Painting. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a reliable, high-quality painting service. They truly live up to their name!"

"Eddy got the job done over several days. It was a big job to re-stain front door and panels and molding inside and out. Also re-stain patio door inside. The front door had older-style hardware. We could not find a replacement hardware set so Eddy refinished and painted the old set. It turned out beautiful! Eddy also painted my very high window wells in the family room. beautiful. Eddy and his helper, Claudia, are very nice people, professional and pleasant to work with. I will hire Genesis painting the next time I need work done. Their work is first class."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

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.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
