"I contacted Wolverine Custom Painting in the spring to discuss my project. Doug came to my home and we walked through all of the tasks that needed to be done including pressure washing, making repairs, and painting/staining. He was very thorough and took the time to help me understand that there was more needed than I originally expected, especially due to how long it had been since the last painting/staining. I received his quote in a timely fashion and he was quick to answer the questions that I had. I understood when I signed the contract that I would need to wait until summer for the job to be completed. The job was started the end of July and took about a week and a half to complete. Doug and all of the workers were professional, friendly, and informative throughout the project. Because this company could provide a wide range of services, it made it easy for me. I was especially impressed by the work done to prepare the buildings for the staining/painting. Everyone was careful to work around the landscaping and kept the area clean each day. The quality of the final product is excellent - my home looks better than it ever has before. The cost was high but well worth the final results."

"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!"

"The owner, Adam, was responsive to our calls and questions. We have an older home and his crew did a good job making it look good. They painted our decks as well. The workers were polite and worked in very hot weather and during smokey conditions from wildfires. His cost was the same as another quote. We would hire them again. Bob"

"They started 8/17. I asked for everything to be white, with an accent wall in 3 rooms all of a gray. Agreed on a pop of dark gray also on a ledge and a small wall. The 18th I came home to find, the laundry room, sm hallway, kitchen and 3 of the livingroom walls all gray. I called Chris he got so riled up and said I never said no such thing, called me a liar multiple times, over talked when I tried speaking. I said I would be calling Angi, he went all kinds of ugly. He said no your not this is my livelihood. He said he'd make a report the following morning, call my how, and bring the police. After he kept over talking me, I hung up on him. He then texted me. We left it as for him to fix the issue would cost me an extra 750.00. I still have his texts. That Thursday I came home to a empty 5 gallon of paint and a empty gallon of paint in my garage, a light fixture don't put back up. (I have cathedral ceilings ugh."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.

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.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.
