"Derek, the owner, was outstanding. I could not have asked for a better experience. He provided the best crew to work on my home. They were on time, meticulous, and extremely clean. I did end up asking for additional work to be done and Derek was more than accommodating. I would hire this company again and again. Thank you Derek, Gilberto, Mike & Arti!"

"Excellent. Anthony's team was timely, professional and provided a very high quality product. The existing stain was 9 years old and considerable repair of loose and cracked boards was needed especially on the south elevation. Preemo completed a complete color change and addressed all the siding issues without additional carpentry costs. Lots of compliments and inquiries from neighbors."

"Initially, I hired them to power wash and paint a small section of a rather large deck. However, when I saw how professional they were, and how well it was turning out, I added to my scope of work and had them do two decks and repair outside structures. It took them three days to complete the work, but no shortcuts were taken. They moved furniture deck furniture and replaced it. I am beyond pleased"

"This is the second time we’ve used steadfast, they painted our deck summer 2018. If you are looking for a painting company that will do a perfect job that will last, hire steadfast. I was so happy with how our deck held up over the winter, I decided to have them paint the outside of our house. Anthony is so terrific to work with and all of his employees are polite and do a great job. My neighbor was so impressed by the work that they did, how nice the employees got along and talked to each other, she hired them to paint the outside of her house too!"

"I highly recommend Chroma Art and Paint. Very professional from start to finish. The lead estimator was very thorough and took the time to explain his recommendations for the project in order to achieve the highest quality result. The estimate itself was extremely detailed so that I knew exactly what the project would cover and the cost. No hidden surprises! The crew and the project coordinator were very punctual, courteous, and professional. They kept everything well-staged and organized and finished the job quickly. They were very responsive to any questions I had throughout the job. Awesome experience and the beautiful end result!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.
