"Recently I had an Exterior house project to stain and paint my wood home and, replace wood on the deck of my home and paint it. I went into a local paint store and was given contact information… (MyM Painting LLC.) Melin, the company owner came to my home to give me a quote for my project. A few days later he and his awesome crew show up to do the job. The guys finish the most amazing job on my home in 2 1/2 days, on a 4,000 sq ft home. They were very detailed in making sure things were covered and protected from any mishaps. They were all very nice, polite, and accommodating doing the project…. I would use Melin and company again for my painting needs, and I most certainly recommend them for anyone else’s painting or deck needs."

"Paul and his team did an outstanding job painting the exterior of C.C. Veterinary Hospital! From start to finish, Paul was professional, communicative, and incredibly easy to work with. His two-man crew was efficient and detail-oriented—they completed our entire building, including all of the doors, in just two and a half days. We especially appreciated how considerate they were of our business operations. They made every effort to complete as much of the work as possible outside of our business hours, which helped minimize any disruption for our clients, patients, and staff. The finished product looks fantastic, and we couldn't be happier with the results. If you're looking for a reliable, hardworking exterior painting company, we highly recommend Paul and his team!"

"The Painting Group did a great job. Once they started the job they stayed with it until it was completed. It was finished in a timely manner and they taped off everything. They did a great job with clean up afterwards. I highly recommend The Painting Group."

"We communicated by text. He sent me the estimate quickly. He sent me an estimated time of when he would start. He text me that there was gonna be a short delay. The day he was starting, he said he would be there between eight and 10. He arrived by 9 AM. He listened to my final instructions. I added some shrubs that needed to be trimmed. He removed dead plants and mulch,added a weed barrier and river rock. He was very pleasant to speak with. Hard-working. When finished he removed and cleaned up everything."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.
