"Bruce did a good job of keeping us informed when what would be done on our deck. Everything went so quick once we decided to go with them. The deck looks like new again."

"G.Z.L. Painting ( Adam ) was awesome ! The house has never looked better in the 22 years we have lived here ! Had it painted twice before and just never looked like this did with final product. Always very attentive to the details and beyond expectations ! He dealt with our time line, pets, and overall any curveballs when we needed to leave or run out. Even after leaving the site, always clean and very thorough job ! Thanks again Adam and your hard working crew !"

"I am so thrilled with the painting Manny and the team completed. They did an excellent job from beginning to end. They took our painting needs for our home and brought it back to life. They were professional, clean, kind, courteous, detailed and went above and beyond to get our painting job done. They offered a fair price to complete all the projects. We loved them so much we continued to find more and more work for the team to do. We had our home exterior and interior painted, the deck repaired and refinished. Manny was able to match our unique interior paint colors from previous owners with flawless execution. He is the most knowledgeable, talented, fair, Professional and kind painter I have ever met. They are extremely hard working and will complete any job perfectly. He goes above and beyond what is expected. He makes any dream come true! We are so fortunate to have been blessed with their painting presence. I would highly recommend them to anyone who is looking for top notch painting in any high end home! Sincerely, Karen Jeffery-Wheeler"

"Paradise Painting did an excellent job repainting the exterior of my house. Adrian was very professional in all aspects of the job. Major prep was needed on the wood siding in the front. He did not rush the job, making sure the walls were fully dry and prepped before applying the paint. Excellent clean up afterwards. I would definitely reuse them again."

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. 

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

You should refinish your deck to maintain its appearance, durability, and longevity. Refinishing your deck protects the wood from foot traffic and the elements. It also helps extend its life span by keeping rot, mildew, and termites at bay. By maintaining your deck, you can avoid the cost of replacing your deck sooner. A refinished deck also looks great and restores some of its original beauty.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months.
