"Phil and Doug at 360 Painting of Ann Arbor made the estimating and scheduling process very smooth. Phil worked with us on a very tight schedule and accommodated our changes in plan. Their team was amazing and super efficient - moved through painting all the rooms within two days. I'll be recommending them to all my friends who need their homes painted!"

"We hired Great Lakes Painting & Building Services to paint our wooden picket fence and had a great overall experience. The crew was courteous and hardworking on-site, even through several 90+ degree, humid days ? they never let the heat slow them down. After the initial job, we noticed a few spots that needed touch-ups, and the response was fantastic ? they sent someone out right away who addressed everything we flagged and then walked the fence line with us to catch a few additional spots on his own. That kind of follow-through and willingness to make it right says a lot about the company. The fence looks great now, and we'd happily use them again for future projects. Highly recommend."

"The service provided by Ed Davis and his crew was very good. Ed gave me a comprehensive, thorough estimate. He was good at explaining paint choices, coverage to be expected per gallon, and how much paint he would leave me for future touch ups. His crew (Jesse and Chris) worked well together: they masked off areas to prevent overspray, and powerwashed my house beforehand. They worked with me on areas I noted for caulking, and even took a few hits from some gutter-dwelling wasps. The final finish is beautiful. I'm very pleased with their work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

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.
