"Gt Lakes Building Services did a very good job painting the trim on my house. They were punctual on the day they were scheduled to be here. The Great Lakes crew worked continuously until the job was done and cleaned up after themselves. The skilled painters left good coverage and very straight lines on old boards that badly needed paint. They repaired some very rotten boards on an alcove/porch entrance, replaced them with composite boards, and painted them on all sides--no chance of dry rot there. Thanks for the good job! They have many pictures on Instagram of their past jobs. They know how to paint!"

"I learned that Peter and his crew had extensive experience in building decks and installing hardwood. We hire him to replace our deck which was done exceptionally well. One of Peter's crew, Vaso (sp) was an experienced cabinet maker. The amount of attention paid to detail, fit and finish went far beyond anything I've seen in deck construction. I mentioned to Peter that are next project would be to replace the flooring on our first floor. Again the quality and attention to detail exceeded all expectations. Peter and his crew are easy to work with, professional and work well as a team. Peter's is onsite directing the work and ensures all is done to his satisfaction. We couldn't be happier with the work he's done for us"

"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!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.
