"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."

"Jorge, Douglas, and their crew did an excellent job. We were on a really short timeline, and they were able to get all the work done. They were very pleasant to work with, and we will definitely be using them for all our painting and remodeling needs in the future!"

"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!"

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

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