"Clei was wonderful to work with. He kept me updated constantly and was very responsive to all my requests…he even suggested the perfect color for my shutters after the samples I chose didn’t work out! He also repaired and painted my old deck, which everyone else said couldn’t be done, making it look like new. He did a beautiful job on both my house and my deck, and I highly recommend him. I will definitely use him for any future painting jobs."

"Hired to paint entire interior of my condo which included removal of popcorn ceiling. The job was done beautifully and the price was reasonable and competitive when compared to other quotes. Jacob was a pleasure to work with, he kept my timeframe for getting the work done in mind. Highly recommended Propainters."

"Nixon repaired two very extensive cracks in our Corian sink that others did not want to deal with. He also fixed more problems that we were not aware of but could readily see when he showed them to us. Nixon saved us the cost of replacing the whole Corian kitchen counter top and potentially future large water damage. He is easy to deal with and provides prompt service."

"Esteban Vazquez the owner of Taurus Painting is extremely courteous, hard working and efficient. I have lived in the CT area for 13 yrs and have had my house painted 3 X and never have i had such a fantastic job! Esteban went beyond just painting in fixing rotten wood etc. He started when he said he would, worked from 8-5 everyday and finished when EVERYTHING was painted (actually stained) His entire crew was polite and hard working. If I could have rated him a 10, I would have! Taurus Painting deserves an A++++++"

"I have a large deck with a grape vine top. It was in dire need of repairs(washing, sanding, replacing rotted wood, staining) I called J. Corrigan from Angie's list. He arrived estimated and I contracted with him. His team arrived and an excellent job was performed in the amount of time given. I will be calling them again for other projects. "Thanks Joe and team for a job well done.""

"Initally it took some back and forth conversations with the sales rep to get them to match their competitors bid but they did come through on their promise. Although it did take a few pointers with the paint crew to make sure they understood the job and the quality of work we were expecting we are very pleased with the outcome. The painters were friendly and easy to work with. I do think the company should invest in some lifts or something as there was quit a bit of inefficiency with them trying to paint our 21 ft ceilings with ladders? They had to have two guys hold the ladder while one guy painted. I'm thinking the lift would pay for itself in a few jobs just with the savings in productivity alone? As a result it took a lot longer to complete the job. But over-all very pleased with the work and the experience. I will hire them again when we need the outside of the house painted."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

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.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Yes, they provide design insights that enhance space utility and visual appeal.

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.
