"Bill and Jim did an EXCELLENT job of painting my walls going up to the 2nd floor, the living room and all the trim. They were very neat in their work, and cleaned up all their supplies without any mess leftover. I would DEFINITELY recommend them to anyone who needs some painting done, AND they were very reasonable with their price, and because I was impressed with their work, I gave them a $200.00 bonus. HIRE THEM!!!!"

Customers say: True professional

"The deck hadn't been stained in a few years and needed at least two coats of stain. When we first spoke he was fine with two coats. The stain I had purchased myself. A premium stain knowing the wood would soak it up like a sponge. When he started, I stopped by to check on the deck and he stated that it would only need one coat. I said two, as we had agreed on earlier. That's when he started giving me a hard time about the second coat. He was insistent that it only needed one. He wanted an easy in and out job. He finally agreed on two coats. When they finished there were areas that didn't even get one coat (back of one of the two benches and an area of decking next to the house). The one coat places were in areas that I guess he didn't think I'd look, behind bushes etc. , hire someone else."

"Paddy's guys did the work and clean up the same day. They did such a great job that their foreman checked their work the same day instead of a week later. They charged a fair price for my tiny house. Will recommend every time!!"

"The final look was absolutely beautiful. A certain color i picked didn’t look how i expected it to & they were more than willing to paint over and redo that section with a different color of my choice. Everyone was very respectful & professional. I will be calling back for more inside work!"

"I use Sunrise Painting several times a year for both my clients I refer them to and for my own properties. He gets my quotes completed quickly and more importantly he gets the projects completed promptly. I also appreciate the owner, Halil, follows up each completion with his own final touch ups and cleanup. I think he and his firm are the best."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Apply a wood stain or sealant to properly maintain a wood deck railing and keep it looking new. Sealants protect wood from moisture and weathering. Regularly inspect the railing for loose screws, damaged balusters, and other signs of wear to make timely repairs. Routinely clean the railing using mild soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.
