"David was incredibly responsive and had great customer service. He cares about the customer being satisfied with the job. The deck turned out very nice. (note: I was a tiny bit worried about the painter diluting the stain (oil based) with water but it seems this is something that's sometimes done when using a sprayer. I do wish it was diluted with mineral based solution vs water but everything seemed to turn out well and I'm happy with my deck)"

"Ethan came to my house to give me a quote to paint a section of my house that was difficult to reach. I accepted the quote. He arrived within a few days with the proper equipment and did the job. He also went beyond the expected task and cut some limbs from a nearby tree - no additional charge! He did a thorough job. Ethan is blessed with a pleasant nature and a Godly spirit. You’ll never regret calling him to help you."

"Our home looks brand new thanks to Brush & Roll! We were in desperate need of a new paint job on the exterior of our home and interior. The team arrived on time, worked diligently throughout the day, and stuck to the agreed-upon timeline. The crew spent significant time cleaning, sanding, and caulking before painting. Leaving an incredible outcome. I am very impressed and pleased with the job done!"

"I got a same day response after I entered the request online. The estimate was done the next business day, and the work was done 2 days after I contacted them approving the estimate. The estimate was very reasonable. The 2 men were on time and professional. They power washed the front and back porch areas, the front sidewalk, and the 2nd floor deck. Every area looks amazing. I was also told of some gutter issues they noticed while working. You would want to hire this company for power washing. They also do other work/repairs which is helpful to know of a reliable company when we need more work done."

"I had a good experience with Jose's team - especially given my home being very delicate (over 100 years old)). They made sure to confirm everything, bring a crane to deal with the larger 20+ foot sides of my home, spent 3 days masking and painting, then cleaned up after they were done."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.
