"I recently had my shingle roof replaced and I?m very happy with the results. The team was professional, punctual, and completed the job efficiently. The quality of the work is excellent, and the new roof looks great. They kept the work area clean and communicated well throughout the process. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing a roof replacement."

"Adriano and his crew did a magnificent job power washing and restaining my house, and his carpenter (Diago?) did a fantastic job of replacing lots of rotten wood on my deck, fixing broken lattices, and shoring up the deck's attachment to a pillar. The house exterior and deck hadn't been stained or cleaned in such a long time, there was barely any old stain left, so they were working from scratch. They also left my property in immaculate condition. All this with much courtesy and good humor. They worked on our home like it was their own. I can't recommend them enough. His pricing was very fair."

"David Harris Painters did superb work at our home. Excellent repair carpentry and painting. They were highly professional and showed great craftsmanship and attention to detail.  They obviously wanted to do the best job possible, not just get the job done. We are very satisfied and would certainly use David Harris again.

"I cannot say enough wonderful things about D&F Painting, Franklin, and Dolly. In years of dealing with contractors, I have NEVER experienced this level of professionalism, patience, attention to detail, and genuine dedication to customer satisfaction. They painted the ENTIRE interior of my home every wall, ceiling, both sides of doors, inside and outside of every closet, and all the trim throughout the house. They also refinished my entire set of kitchen cabinets. This was an enormous project, and their work was absolutely exceptional. My hardwood floors had just been freshly stained, and I was extremely concerned about protecting them. Franklin and Dolly went above and beyond, meticulously covering every inch of flooring in every room and carefully laying paper and taping to protecting everything. Their attention to detail was unlike anything I have ever seen. They showed up on time, worked incredibly hard, and treated my home with such respect I totally recommend DNF painting"

Deck Staining FAQs, 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.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
