"Derrick arrived on time to assess the deck. He was very professional, personable, and accommodating. Our deck was in tough shape but he worked with us to stay within our budget and still not cut any corners. We were more than pleased with his work and being very punctual ."

"Mike and his team are 95% complete on roofing, trim and siding, porch and deck rebuild, paint and carpentry at my 200 year old Cape house. So far, 5 stars for fast service and quality of work! The change has been transformational and even with some additions to the contract for hidden roof and beam rot the change orders have stayed within 10 percent of the estimate. I would definitely hire them again."

"I would highly recommend Robertâ s Home Improvement! We needed immediate deck repair and Carlos responded right away. When I told them our tight timeframe he was extremely accommodating and brought a crew out the same day to start working. They were fast and efficient, and everyone was so nice! Carlos was great at communicating through the whole process. They did a fantastic job and weâ re very happy with the end result. We will definitely be using them again for future projects."

"We hired universal Painting for a number of projects at our house - power washing, exterior painting, replacement of rotted wood, deck staining, interior painting and some dry walling. They also installed new doors and did bathroom tile work as well as beautiful exterior stone work. Andre and his crew are professional, timely, meticulous and easy to deal with. Their work is fantastic. I highly recommend Universal Painting."

"Joe and his team are a pleasure to work with. Since buying our house 3 years ago, he has been our one stop shop for all our projects. In the first few months they installed counter tops, installed a backsplash, installed a new roof, painted the trim and installed all new fencing three years ago. We reached out again this spring and they replaced our driveway, installed a new walkway and front steps. They fully gutted 2 bathrooms with amazing flooring and tile work. We then reached out after that and they replaced all the cedar shingles, repaired and painted all our trim. They also removed and replaced our back deck. There is nothing I wouldn't ask Joe and his team to do. His employees are respectful, polite and do a great job cleaning as they work. Joe personally understands what needs to be done, the right product to use, AND has very fair pricing. An added bonus has been Joe's eye to design with great suggestions for styles and materials."

"We had Paulo paint and stain the exterior of our house two years ago and he did such a great job at a good price we hired him recently for a complete bathroom remodel, a new floor in another bathroom and putting a skylight in my den. He is an expert with logistics - materials and workers arrived as needed, all on a tight schedule, all expert at what they did and all very amiable. Paulo himself loves his work, enjoys design and selection of materials, and is good at it. He stopped by every day to oversee progress and was done in about ten days. His bid was well below the other bid I received. Many people have since complimented the work. He has a foreman who checks all work and does much of it himself, Daniel Peixoto, who is both an extraordinarily hard worker and is masterful on tile and carpentry projects. I truly believe that Paulo's attitude affects his whole crew, giving them a friendly and considerate approach to their work and a real attention to detail."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.
