"Hiring Carlson’s Proficient Painting was an excellent experience from beginning to end. I was impressed by their professionalism, expertise, and pride in doing the job right — down to the tiniest detail. My 60-year-old house now looks sleek and beautiful and updated and is getting lots of compliments. I got multiple estimates, and Carlson’s was the best value. Their price was reasonable, they use substantially better quality paint (the highest grade of Sherwin Williams), and their written estimate thoroughly detailed every step of the process. Eric, the owner of Carlson’s, was a stand out. He spent a lot of time going around my house discussing its issues and offering solutions that the other companies did not have. I decided not only to have the house and an outdoor shed painted, but also the pool cage pressure-washed and the pool deck and an extended slab along the side of the house painted. Also, I opted to have the aluminum frame of my screened porch repainted, a rain diverter installed along one area, and some rotted wood replaced. Carlson’s three-man team of LeRon, Kirk and Brandon were experienced craftsmen (artists, really) who went above and beyond to make everything perfect and to offer suggestions here and there that really helped. They were a joy to work with, always accommodating and helpful in responding to any question or issue I brought up. I can’t remember when I’ve had such a positive experience with a company. I highly recommend them."

"Matt, at Clima-Guard Painting, did an outstanding job with pressure washing and paining the gutters, soffit, and fascia around a 2000 sq ft house and pool cage! He was flexible and worked around my Airbnb renting schedule. I highly recommend him for all the different types of work he does."

"Matt did an superb job on painting the exterior of our 3,374 square foot home. He was very neat, detailed, and meticulous. Our home never looked so good, not even when it was brand new (built in 2008)! Also, we had originally considered re-staining the front door but Matt suggested a semi gloss paint and we are so happy that we took his advice! The door looks absolutely gorgeous!!! We highly recommend Clima-Guard painting if you are looking for a true professional with proven outstanding results"

"Chris and John were amazing. I will use them again and again. They communicated with me whenever there were delays or issues; they found problems that arose after they started, and immediately provided me with solutions. They went the extra mile every time, and Chris even helped me find someone to address issues I had with my pool when I couldn’t get pool people to call me back! Their work is amazing, and I have the sharpest-looking house on the street now. I recommend them without reservation. Good work ethic and outstanding customer service! I wish there were more contractors like them."

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.

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

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.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

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.
