"I hired Charlie and son, Tony, of Pinnacle Painting to power wash and re-stain my front deck, paint a door, trims, touch up my shed and they did a great job and are very fairly priced! I was unhappy with the original color they stained the deck with (my fault), and they worked with me to find a stain that we loved and re-stain it all in the same week and at a very fair price. I am very detail oriented, and they did a great job, and touched up areas prior to payment, that I had concerns with. I will hire them again!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Mr. Ellis and his young adult crew were very professional in their approach to our project. Mr. Ellis told us what his crew was going to do and when they were going to do it. We wanted our slate sided home painted and these folks did a great job. They are the only business that still rolled and brushed paint. As far as we are concerned they are the best."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
