"Gonti painted my house, barn, and chicken house last September. Instead of an instant review, I decided to wait through the fall and winter and see how their painting weathered a couple of rough seasons. Hopefully, this offers the reader a more valuable review. Bottom line, I couldn’t be more delighted. The paint job looks like it did the day they finished, with no peeling or cracks. After receiving three quotes from 5 star rated service providers, I selected Gonti for three reasons: 1. Their reviews were numerous and impeccable. I called 2 of their former customers who praised them profusely and read several other glowing reviews. 2. Clei, the owner, is trustworthy, a man of great integrity. 3. Their quote was the lowest, as Clei had predicted. This team of experienced professionals did everything meticulously, including the hardest part - preparation. Their attention to detail, including the rails on our large deck, was impeccable. Hire these guys!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.

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.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.
