"We couldn’t be more thrilled with our newly painted house by Jay’s Paint Service! I contacted Jay after getting quotes from some other painters and being strung along by one company I engaged to paint our house this spring. Going back to look at reviews I spotted Jay’s and left a message for a quote. Jay called me back within minutes and set up a time to check the job the next day. He sent me a quote by the end of that day. Throughout the process he kept on top of the timeline, reached out to me to schedule power washing and time to discuss colors. Not once did I feel like I had to track them down. They showed up early every morning of the job and Jay’s crew ~ Justin and Antoine ~ were friendly, supportive, courteous and completely professional. Their prep work and painting was meticulous. Jay was on site every day to help with projects and check progress. They also repaired windowmframes, painted our door and shutters, and installed new sconces. And the job was done on time! The end result is more beautiful than I could have imagined. Highly recommend Jay’s! My neighbor even hired them while they were here painting our house!"

"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!"

"It was a really good job, and they did it pretty quickly. They finished the job in two days. The first day, they pressure washed and treated the exterior. The next day, they did all the scraping and painting. It was pretty amazing."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

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.

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.
