"Phillip and crew were attentive, punctural, very responsive and excellent quality work product. They bid sheetrocking, texturing, painting two tree damaged kitchen ceilings removing and reinstallimg ceiling fixtures. Elevating and resurfacing a back door wood deck then paintimg the deck. A new back door was replaced and its locks and door chains were changed out. All work performed professionally in the promised timeframe. In addition, we ended up having him paint both kitchens walls and trim. Also because the legs were rotted on the rear door deck we ended up having the deck reconstructed from scratch. Including the add on work not in initial bid. All work initial bid and the add on work was completed in the initial promised time date."

"I recommend Diamond House Painting, LLC without any reservation whatsoever. They arrive on time every single day, were polite and personable, and did excellent work for a very good price. They worked long hours to build me a beautiful deck in as short a time as possible without sacrificing quality and repairing and repainting my bedroom ceiling. My neighbors and family have been commenting on what a great job they did and now I have to have Thanksgiving dinner on my new deck (weather permitting)! Haha. Hire them. You will not be sorry."

"SES always impresses us with their quality and attention to care but never before have we been as blown away by their professionalism as with our most recent project. Project involved removal of a metal spiral staircase, removal of cat urine saturated flooring, resealing and leveling of the floor, tiling, construction of a new wooden staircase, painting and staining of wooden staircase and (a request made after seeing how transformative this project was proving to be) cleaning, patching and painting of the walls and trim. Due to some hiccups, the project extended past the provided timeline and SES agreed (and again, this is after we threw a potential wrench in their plans making an additional request after the project commenced) to begin covering the cost of the continued boarding of the cats. In short, I cannot shout loudly enough our appreciation for SES!"

Mario and his team were great to work with, very courteous and professional. The work was done on time and in budget and the price was very reasonable. We will use this company again for other work in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
