"Alberto’s team was great. They pressure washed the house. Stained the house and painted the deck. Also, they pressure washed the driveway, repaired the chimney, and replaced some of the railroad ties. They cleaned up very well. Very professional. They did much more than the “exterior painting” option category below."

"Jonathan showed up on time and went right to work with prepping the walls for painting. I couldn’t be happier with the results. The interior of my home was painted in a professional manner. They finished on time and replaced all items to their original places. They cleaned up and left the home just as the found it. I would use them again for additional jobs around my place. Very satisfied."

"I had previously hired Mar Painting to paint the entire exterior of my house. A very large job, and I was very pleased with it. So I hired them again to paint a porch made of brick with six columns also made of brick, as well as paint the concrete deck. I can tell you the magnificent job they did the first time around on my house was not a fluke. Bert and his people came out and very professionally did their work, cleaned up and departed. Everything they did is just wonderful to look at. I cannot more strongly recommend them to anyone who needs a paint job. Large or small."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
