"Groovey Hues did a great job. They painted my living room and kitchen at a fair price, plus most importantly, I didn’t have to do it myself. There was also a little paint leftover and they painted my dog house as a throw in."

"After reading all the great reviews, we called Certapro Painters to give us an estimate and, in fact, had them do the job. We felt the price they gave us was fair and competitive. We had some repairs to the home and the entire exterior of our house painted. We were extremely pleased with the quality of the work. Everything was done as promised. We were surprised to find out that they could do the repairs to the house prior to the painting. We were very pleased with the coordination between the carpentry work and the painting. Certapro turned what I thought would be a very difficult situation into something very simple. We plan on painting the complete interior of our home in the future and wouldn't have anybody other than Certapro do the work! Again, comforting to know that if we need carpentry work done prior to the painting of the interior, they will coordinate it with their painters. Just a great company top to bottom with a great bunch of people. Wouldn't have anybody else do our painting or repairs. We highly recommend them."

"Great quality service overall. They installed fiber cement siding and painted our house. They also resurfaced our deck as well. They were very professional and did quality work. Great attention to details, too! High caliber customer service- whenever I had questions or concerns, Nick would reply promptly via email, text, or a phone call. I would definitely hire them again and would recommend them to anyone."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

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.
