"I have nothing but great things to say about this company.  Greg was right here on the job from start to finish.  They were neat, cleaned up thoroughly, and they matched our existing stain perfectly.  Our decks look terrific.  Greg's pricing was fair and affordable, and they finished the project in one day as promised.  I would definitely use his services again in the future."

"We have used Painting Innovations for a number of projects over the years at two different homes, and they always do outstanding work! Our most recent project was the exterior painting of our home along with staining of our deck and pergola. Everything went great from start to finish! David, who is one of the owners, is amazing to work with and communicated with us frequently through project completion. William led the team who did the work, and he was also awesome to work with - friendly, professional and very detail oriented. The crew took a lot of care with the prep, painting and staining, and the end result is beautiful. We will continue to use Painting Innovations for all of our exterior and interior painting needs."

"In a word - OUTSTANDING! Christopher Wilson and his entire crew did a terrific job painting the exterior of our home and staining our decks. We also had a significant amount of wood rot that need to be repaired. The carpentry and craftsmanship was top-notch as they mitigated the wood rot. The entire crew worked hard, were responsive and kept a clean job site. I would hire Christopher Wilson and his company again without reservation."

"Kevin and his crew were very efficient. He came by and left stain colors as well as the estimate for work even though I was not able to be home to meet him. In order to do the job well he trimmed some bushes surrounding my deck and got rid of the yard waste. As the crew worked, he sent me pictures of the process and put the deck furniture back where it had been. The entire process was professional and immaculate. I definitely recommend Kevin Turner Painting! "

"I hired Pro Home Exteriors to remove wood rot from the front side of my house. I had my doubts about the work they needed to do. I was blown away with the final outcome of the project. It actually looked like the front of my house was brand new. I highly recommend this company if you need any work done on the outside of your house. They deserved 5 out of 5 stars!"

"Ken Turner, the owner of Turner Painting Company came to my home the day I called and spoke with him about repair and painting of some walls and a ceiling in my home. He looked at all that needed to be done, explained how everything would be repaired and painted, and gave me a very reasonable bid of $750 to do the work. He set up an appointment for the work to be done. I gave him a check for $150. I had all the paint that would be used for the job, except for the foyer ceiling. Ken let me choose the color I wanted, to match the walls, and the cost of the paint was included in the bid. The appointment was for 8:00 A.M. and the painters, (Jane and Jake) were at my home about 5 minutes early. Jake sealed off the area around the foyer, got the old peeling ceiling sanded down, coated, and painted. He carefully took down the little chandelier, and did a perfect job. Meanwhile, Jane repaired and painted two small areas in the kitchen. Unfortunately, that can of paint had dried up, so she went to get a quart of paint to match. She then went upstairs and took care of a wall that had water stains on it from a leak in a pipe on the roof. The leak had been repaired, so it was time to repair and paint the wall, which she did perfectly. They left for lunch, to give the walls and ceilings a chance to dry. They painted everything, and finished the job by late afternoon. Cleanup was perfect. You would never know that scraping had been done. The owner, and the people he sent to do the job were all friendly, knowledgeable, experienced, and proud to do the jobs perfectly. I would certainly use this company again, and I would recommend them to anyone needing repair and painting at their home. This is a family owned business, and I have found over the years that family businesses have pride in their company, and are usually perfectionists. Jane told me if I have any problems with their work, they would be happy to return to make sure I was happy with the outcome. I have no doubt that they do every job as well as they did mine Jill"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

Choosing the right product involves understanding deck material, desired finish, and local weather conditions. Opt for high-quality, weatherproof formulations ensuring long-term durability and appearance retention.
