"Iâ m so glad I hired Oak Street to stain my deck and touch up/paint the siding on the back of my house. Dallas did an amazing job! I appreciated his attention to detail, keeping me informed about when he would be on site and he finished the job in time expected. He left no trace other than a beautiful deck and great looking paint job."

"We hired this contracting firm for two separate projects. The first was our 3 story deck - when we bought our fixer upper the deck was really cool but needed some loving. Tim from Make a Choice was so positive and really got the job done. He brought all the railings up to code, fixed the rotted footings with new concrete piers, and kept the place clean. Easy to communicate with and his team was so professional and nice - even to the point that when we asked that they keep noise down during our kids' naptime - they complied. Deck feels so sturdy now. Second project was our roof. Ours was old and leaking. We called Tim's brother Chuck over and he quoted us a roof repair with architectural shingles. Quote came in several thousand less than another trusted roofer we knew and since we had a good experience with Make a Choice in the past we went with them. Only issue was that we had a loss of communication in that we needed our skylights taken out and team working on it did not get that memo. However, issue brought to attention and they took care of it. We will probably be hiring this firm again to do some new siding and painting in the near future."

"It is rare these days to find someone so extremely hardworking and punctual, who always does what he says he will do. His house painting prep work was painstaking and detailed, and he carefully selected thee correct types of paint for each different surface. There were several rotten boards on my old deck that his crew carefully replaced, as well as repainting the whole deck. I was very happy the the job and would gladly hire Mr. Bautista again for future projects."

"Jose and his crew did a fantastic job! Even though they had to battle the weather (rain and temp), they still got the job done in a timely manner. We were getting new gutters so they removed all of our old ones, repaired problem areas on our deck and chimney, including installing flashing. We also went from a very dark trim color to a bright gloss white so it wasn’t the easiest to cover but they got it done beautifully. Jose is very curious, professional and extremely knowledgeable. I would definitely use them again for any paint project that comes up in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.
