"I have to compliment You on your service and, in particular, Arturo and his crew. I've had many contractors work on my house; in fact this is the third time in 13 years that I've had the trim painted. Without a doubt this was the best crew of people that have ever worked on my home. They were very nice to work with and the paint job was excellent. They did everything meticulously. Completely satisfied!"

"I Hired Pro Masters to paint the exterior of my larger home in the Dacula, GA area. Christian was prompt with his quote and clear with the start times and how long the project would take. the quality of work was outstanding and his entire team were courteous, professional and show clearly that they take pride in their work. I have hired painters in the past that over promise and under deliver but this could not be further from the case with Pro Masters. My home needed a good deal of remediation and replacement of rotted wood as well as some window repairs and Pro Masters showed their aptitude at not only painting but carpentry as well! My home literally looks brand new after 17 years! The pricing was very fair for all of the remediation and painting that needed to be done. If you need to have your home painted or are looking for exterior repairs I could not recommend enough the professionals at Pro Masters."

"Steve and his team did an excellent job painting the interior of my home, so I didn’t hesitate to reach out again when it was time to have the exterior pressure washed and painted. Once again, they delivered outstanding results. I’m very pleased with the quality of the work, their professionalism, and the affordable pricing."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.
