"Josh and his crew did a great job. Appreciated them always being on time and following through on what they promised to do (and more). Little apprehensive about the stain color of deck, but after Josh's reassurance that it will look better after some time and now that I gotten used to it, just love it!"

"Jesse and his crew did an amazing job! From contact to completion it only took 10 days to paint my entire interior including sanding/painting doors, and power washing/staining 2 outdoor decks. This is the second time I have worked with him and he is a true pro!"

They did a beautiful job for a very reasonable price - I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. I will definitely contact them for future projects."

"Last winter, my husband and I were fortunate enough to close on a house. However, the garage was sorely in need of interior cleaning, repair, and paint. We were both “Gung Ho” about doing it ourselves when I tripped and fractured my wrist. At that point, the movers were due to arrive in 5 days with two truckloads of home furnishings. Josh Dowell (Dowell’s Painting) responded to my desperate call by promptly sending out an associate to start cleaning and taping followed up working over the weekend to personally accommodate our needs. The results were thorough and well executed. In the process, we learned to appreciate Josh’s words of wisdom that the painting of a well-used garage interior is a much more formidable project than most lay people assume it to be. We’re happy to provide testament to his extensive experience and professionalism and will gladly give him another call for the next painting project."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

Aftercare includes routine cleaning, checking for water repellency, and promptly addressing any chips or peels, maintaining the deck's appearance and functionality.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.
