"I have been a customer of Gonzalez Painting for over 15 years. They are extremely professional, reasonably priced and back up their quality work completely. They do great work, masters of there craft. They have painted my home various times inside and out, and always do a nice and clean job. They have also pressure cleaned and sealed my roof tiles, driveway and rear deck. Not once have I had an issue with them, highly recommended!"

"Alex was absolutely fantastic to deal with. I typically don't give 5 stars across the board, but I truly felt they deserved it. Alex and his crew were very professional, and I am extremely pleased with the results. The job was completed ahead of schedule and on budget. Alex provided valuable insights on color selection which were very helpful. The entire crew was on-site every day as promised. I highly recommended Flamingo Painting and would definitely use them again."

"Dilber and his team did an excellent job. They replaced flooring and sub flooring damaged in a leak, located the problem, waterproofed the involved areas inside and out, pressure washed patios, carport and house, painted the entire exterior as well as the interior rooms affected. Helped with multiple other various problems in my old house including locating and repairing a leaking main water line. I highly recommend him and his team for any improvement projects."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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. 

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.
