"Guys are friendly and very helpful. Wish the spray would have gotten in the cracks between the deck boards more evenly. Would also have liked to see more sanding to remove old paint drips. Other than that, the decks, steps, posts and railings look great."

"Ben and his crew did an excellent job on my house. Being very particular, I am a hard person to please and Ben not only meet but exceeded my expectations. The Crew was prompt, courteous, keep the area clean, and their bid was very competitive. Since first hiring Ben I’ve recommended him to several friends and clients and am on his books for two more personal painting projects, a duplex and a house. I would highly recommend Ben and his crew for any paint project that you have."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

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.

Here's the deal with leaving used rags covered in oil-based stain lying around in a pile: Depending on the conditions, these rags can take just an hour or up to a few days to combust. The source of ignition is caused by trapped heat that can be compounded if the rags are near a heat source.

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.
