"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!"

"Clean Cut Painting applied a concrete floor coating in my garage, and I?m really impressed with the outcome. The team worked efficiently and made sure every detail was done properly. The surface looks clean, glossy, and very durable. It has completely improved the look of the space. I would definitely recommend their service to anyone considering floor coating."

"I hired him to come and fix the outside of my house. I had a fire on my porch, because the porch light caught fire due to a bird nest! He did such a WONDERFUL job cleaning and repairing it all! There was alot of damage to the front of the house because I didn't know it was on fire!!! Looks like nothing ever happened 😊 After that, I also hired him to due painting inside my home. You won't be disappointed! 👍🏻👍🏻"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.
