"James was terrific. He was personable and came on short notice. We were in desperate need of a painter when our house was about to go on the market. His prices were very reasonable and his work was very high quality. We had him come back for two more projects."

"Double Diamond Painting We canâ t say enough good things about Double Diamond Painting and its owner Brian Schaller. Heâ s been in the painting business for many years training many crews. He now has a truly professional handpicked crew that donâ t have to be told what to do. Iâ m a perfectionist and have always done things myself but at 70 Iâ m no longer able to climb ladders. I interviewed several painting companies. I could tell that Brian would be best for the job of painting the exterior of our home. Itâ s so rare to find people that care about their job and take pride in their work. The whole crew went beyond the call. I watched a neighbor get ripped off as a power washing company did the whole two story house from the ground. Double Diamond did it the right way by power-washing from a ladder so they were not shooting under the clapboards and not doing an inferior job. Preparation is the most important part of a good job. They scraped, sanded, and primed everything that needed special care. In the end it looks like a new home even though weâ ve been here for 40 years. Our heartfelt thanks to Brian and his professional crew. Did I mention Double Diamond was the lowest price of all I interviewed? We would highly recommend them for all your painting needs."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Painting a damaged pool deck is not recommended if the substrate is crumbling, cracking, spalling, or otherwise actively deteriorating. Continuing deterioration will result in the paint also delaminating or flaking off the damaged surface. Minor damage such as chips or hairline cracks that are not actively deteriorating can often be repaired enough to paint over. A damaged pool deck with a lot of cracking and deterioration should be replaced for best results.
