"Jose’s Painting Co. crew was on-time, all the time and did a great job! Truly professional and do impeccable prep-work. They are detail oriented and clean-up after they finish each day. Their prices are fair and their work is solid. Good attitude and customer service! Jose came out to give an estimate and we had one by the end of the day. Would definitely use them again! Happy customers! Thank you, Jose and Jose!"

"I was very impressed with the service I recieved. The painters thoroughly preped the surfaces and match the existing color with high quality paint that will last years. There were no drips or overspray and cleaned up everything when they completed the job. I highly recommend this company."

"Jon and his crew are great. They are fast, professional, and reasonably priced. We’ve had them paint our entire exterior, interior, stair railing, kitchen cabinets, and doors. Jon helped us determine color options for areas we were unsure about including exterior accents and cabinets. The fresh paint has made such a difference modernizing our house built in the 1990s that hadn’t been updated much prior to our purchase. I will definitely use them again in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

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. 

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.
