"We used Superior a few times in the past to paint the interiors of homes and were very pleased. When the time came to paint the exterior of our home, we obtained three quotes. Superior's bid, while not the lowest, promised the best value... and they delivered. Their work on the exterior of our home was great. The teams were punctual, friendly, professional, and Gerard kept in touch to manage expectations. They also stripped the front door and re-stained it. I thought the door looked good before; I had no idea it had so much potential. The gentleman who worked on the front door explained the door was previously painted to look like wood grain. He brought out the door's true grain. We couldn't be more delighted."

"Excellent! Many thanks ? The crews were very kind, efficient, great with details. We are very proud and eased with ViP Painting and Improvements in Tallahassee FL. It was a busy time to contract for this job and we are so grateful to have found this great group. House ? looks so much better today than it has past 2 or 3 years with hurt from weather, wind, bright sun, road dust and dirt, Florida bugs and other stuff. Our last painting was maybe 12 years ago and was great but our previous contractor is retired now."

"Mr. and Mrs. Williams did a fantastic job. I am extremely pleased. They not only washed the deck, they did the back of the house, a wooden planter, the lattice work, and the stone walkway! It looks just absolutely beautiful and they haven't even sealed it yet. It has to dry for a couple of days. I can't wait until they seal it as well. Based on what I've seen so far, they will be my go-to people for any job like this. They are very professional and friendly and very reasonably priced. 5 stars for sure."

"These guys did an amazing job. I am glad I did not listen to any of the reviews on Facebook because unfortunately there was some bad ones. I went with my gut and I’m glad I did. Craig and Mike were excellent. They listen to all my concerns and even changed a few things with no complaints at all. I will definitely hire them again and recommend them to anyone in the future. Thank you again for all that you did. It truly came out amazing."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
