"Jorge was great. He went above and beyond. I needed an aluminum garage repainted. Other companies wanted to just pressure wash it and paint. Jorge sanded to bare metal, primed it then repainted. Highly recommended. Out of 10 stars, he’s a 12."

"I chose Precise Painting and Restoration out of four other painters I had over because Juan ensured me he could replace the few rotten siding pieces I had on my house. That was valuable to me because I didn't have to find a separate contractor to do the work. During the repair and painting project, Juan would let me know what he was going to work on and gave me updates during the day. Juan and his whole crew were very professional and hard working. My house looks absolutely beautiful!"

"We were very pleased with the work of Gabriel and his crew. They took their time preparing the walls before the paint. The previous owners of our house had hooks and screws everywhere in the house. The crew took their time and filled in all of them. They really did apply 2 coats of paint. While the preparation caused a lot of dust the crew made sure that wiped and vacuumed up everyday before they left."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.
