Customers say: True professional

"We recently hired Salazar’s Pensacola Painting to do the drywall and ceiling repairs after we had a whole house PEX re-pipe (new plumbing installed)…and also to re-finish (texture and paint) our entire ceiling in the kitchen and in a few other rooms. The owner, Cesar Salazar, and his crew came highly recommended and they didn’t disappoint as they did an absolutely amazing job on everything! It’s beautiful work with clean lines and looks pristine like a new house in these areas. They were careful to put plastic cover over everything before and cleaned up well afterwards. Also, their rates are reasonable and competitive, especially for the high quality of work they do and they are just very professional in every way! We are very happy and highly recommend this great company!"

"We were in such a rush after the hurricane Sally and having difficulty finding a painter that we hired him on our first call without even an estimate and his team started the next day. Our only other contact couldn't start for 3 weeks. We were very excited when his bill came in below our last quote. He is very friendly and very professional. The work quality was excellent. I would highly recommend him."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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. 

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

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.
