"This company is the very best. My two old decks now look like they are new. The crew is very detail-oriented especially with the prep workâ -power washing and sanding â so the final staining is perfect. My windows were covered while they worked and everything cleaned up when they finished. Also, the price was very reasonable. I definitely recommend them!"

"Jose and his crew were very professional. They paid close attention to detail and worked hard to make things right. They painted the outside of our home - both stucco and trim and stained the front door - and did a great job. Their price was very reasonable. I would recommend them to many others."

"We requested an estimate to paint the exterior of our house and stain our deck. Our split level house was very challenging with wood and composite siding, four dormers, and three chimneys. Our roof was ceramic tile and quite pitched. After three different estimates, we chose Wise Painting who completed the job to our complete satisfaction. Henruy oversaw his paint crew to make sure the job was done without any problems and often joined in doing the work . We highly recommend their quality work."

"Got the job done faster than estimated. Was very careful to make sure high traffic areas were done with least amount of trouble for us (even used a drier to make sure the lower walls would not be wet if my dog walked by).Very polite. Willing to move furniture and paintings. Even fixed the towel rail that my son had pulled part way from the wall."

"We got into this project with no clue where to start and what needed to be done. Carlos walked me through step by step on the process and was very helpful. Hands down the best price in town, I know you’ve heard it before and you’re probably thinking great price meaning cheap work! Not at all! The pictures say it all! Carlos listened to my many requests and he and his team delivered! Cruz was very patient and made sure I got everything I wanted regarding the work on the house. Oscar and Luis are one of the best handymen in the Bay Area! They can basically do whatever you need to be done! I’ve received so many compliments from all my neighbors."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

The best exterior paint for the job of painting your front porch depends on the material you’ll be painting. Acrylic paint is often recommended for a wooden porch as it’s durable and easy to apply. If your porch is made of concrete, you’ll need to find a formula suited to that material.
