"The owner, Mario, is a true professional. He knows his stuff. He made great recommendations and I’m glad I took his advice about the color selection. My house looks great. His crew did a great job. They were courteous and neat. I was worried about my plants and they went the extra mile to protect them. I highly recommend them."

"The same day I requested the job to be done as soon as possible on the posting, they met me and gave me the lowest quote of the painting companies that responded. The job was done the next day. They did an excellent job and cleaned up afterwards. They volunteered to help me take several pieces of furniture down to be thrown out, above and beyond their job. I have already shared their information with someone else. I highly recommend this company."

"We had an excellent experience with this company. Lisa came out to my home the same day I called for an estimate and two days later had a crew painting the house. The crew worked long hours and with great attention to detail. They cleaned up everything before they left each day and furnishings and flooring were covered when they arrived every day. Lisa is very knowledgeable about what needed to be done and was a big help in choosing what colors to use. Everything came out beautifully."

"Flamingo did a better than expected job. Beside painting, they pressure washed the house, and filled in all cracks, and old holes for shutters. The contractor Alex was professional, courteous, and has very good communication. He made suggestions, and would point things out during pressure washing, preparing, and painting. He would then fix the issues for free! His workers were also very courteous, I plan to have Flamingo Painting paint my driveway, and walkways in the near future. My house looks exactly like when it was built, and first painted! Thank you Flamingo Painting!"

"John painted my living room and dining room including walls, ceilings, crown moldings, baseboards, doors and frames, and various wood trim. The dining room ceiling had a crack which he repaired beautifully. The work was completed on time at a good price. We would hire him again and recommend his services."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

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.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.
