"My cedar deck was in need of repair. There were several boards that were cracking and rotting. In addition, the handrail and steps leading from my backyard up to the deck were loose and rotting. I also needed power washing and re-staining. From the initial meeting through the final inspection, the process went very smoothly. Their pricing was reasonable. Most importantly, they started and completed the job on time and the quality of the work was excellent. I would highly recommend Woodbrook Painting!"

"I hired Valentino to repair some of my exterior trim and paint my house and couldn't be happier with the result. As the project progressed, I found myself finding adding other projects that he was easily able to add to overall work. I found Valentino's original quote to be very competitive, and the add-on projects were also quite reasonable. Valentino was my first call when I needed additional repair work done on my house!"

"I was extremely happy with the job Mario and crew at M & L Painting did on staining my large deck and two sets of steps. He was very professional and easy to work with.. Also was able to schedule right away for the next week and finish in one day as it was a smaller job for him. They worked all day non stop and even sanded the handrails on my steps nice and smooth. TheY cleaned up very nicely also. I would definitely hire him again if I need any painting or remodeling work done. GREAT jOB!"

"Finished painting my home in a timely manor. Was very careful with my furniture and other belongings in my home and made sure that the area he worked in was spotless when he was finished. Communication was top notch throughout the project. I appreciated the kindness and honesty from the owner."

"Using Visual Paint was a wonderful experience. They did a beautiful job painting. My house looks great! They are everything you could want in a painter. Very accommodating and very easy to work with. Reasonably priced. Quiet while they work and always careful to do a good job clearing up. Before the job was considered finished, a supervisor came to check on the work done, and make sure we were happy. I recommend them highly."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
