"Juan and Anthony did a remarkable job with prepping our house and shed to be painted. The paint job is fabulous and we couldn’t be happier with it. They were such a joy to work with. They were great with my hubby being out there watching and asking questions. We will certainly refer anyone we know who needs their home painted. Juan is a true professional and a down right good man and his son Anthony is remarkable young man with a work ethnic that most adults, could you learn from. We have made plans to do things together outside of this job , as friends. Thank you very much for the wonderful job you did for us. We are truly grateful for all your hard work. God bless this family."

He was very meticulous and asked us to walk through severall times to be certain we were completely satisfied. In the end, our cabinets and walls look fabulous! We would highly recommend Iguana Painting for your next painting project!"

"We recently moved into a new rental home. Patrick from GHI did an amazing job. The house is very large with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms and Patrick painted it in 1 weekend so we could begin moving in the following Monday. I would recommend them for any painting project you have. They do great work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

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.
