"Ryan and Trudy scraped and power washed the deck then returned and scraped the deck again. They then applied by brush two coats of Sherwin-Williams Super Deck. Trudy (Ryan's wife) recommended a different tint to complement the siding. When completed our 30 plus deck looked brand new with a better color. Best paint restoration ever!"

"Quality of work was excellent. Our room wa thoroughly clean after the painting was finished. Cost was significantly less than the other bid I received. I will certainly recommend Mr Green to others and will probably ask him to do additional work on the future."

"I couldn't be happier with the work completed by Garcia Painting LLC. As a family-owned company, they truly bring a personal touch to everything they do. From the initial consultation to the final walkthrough, their team was professional, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. They took the time to properly prepare every surface, kept the work area clean, and delivered a finish that completely transformed our space. The quality of the painting exceeded my expectations, with crisp lines, smooth coverage, and outstanding attention to detail. What stood out most was the pride they take in their work and the genuine care they show their customers. The crew was friendly, respectful, and communicative throughout the entire project. I highly recommend them!"

"I hired Painter1 after another painter did an awful job. Our first meeting with Painter1 was very professional and informative. We hired them on a Friday and they got us on the schedule for the following Monday. The painters that did the work did a great job and were very friendly and nice. We will definitely hire Painter1 if we ever need any more work done."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

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.

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.

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.
