"If i could give more thank five stars I would! Paint Bros was excellent in EVERY way. Paint Bros responded quickly to our questions, discussed options thoroughly with us, was open to our ideas and yet contributed his own helpful suggestions and expertise to the project. He provided a fair bid -- similar to other bids. The The hard-working owner checked in with us everyday, and he did the work himself with a helper. He showed up when promised and was always positive and cheerful and really nice to have around. He worked in terrible weather (when others might have found an excuse not to show up) and did REALLY nice work. Our deck never looked so good! Paint Bros did our project the right way, not the easy way. We also added to the project and had them do our dock while they were here and they were willing to take that on too. We could not be more pleased. We have worked with a lot of workmen over the years and feel very confident recommending Paint Bros and we WILL hired them again."

Emergency services offered

Hello, I specialize in interior/exterior painting and staining. I also do pressure washing on decks, driveways and also on residential homes and commercial properties. I also do small repairs for roofing and siding. I also offer gutter cleaning and install leaf protection on gutters. If needed I have other people willing to help depending on the scope of the project. 20 years experience in the industry. My goal is to make sure the homeowner wants to use my services on future projects with no worries about the job getting done right and establishing a great working relationship with one another. I will walk through with the homeowner at the beginning of the project to ensure the job details and scope of the project are performed to fit the homeowners want or needs. After the job is finished I also will do a walk through with the homeowner to ensure I have made them happy with the work and job performed before payment is issued. I have all the materials and job tools to perform the projects outlined above. Thank you and look forward to working with you!!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

Hold off on walking across your freshly stained deck for at least 24 to 48 hours and even longer before setting down furniture or planters. Drying time can stretch depending on humidity and temperature, so give it extra time when in doubt. Also, remember that even though your stained deck may feel dry to the touch, it can take 24 hours to one week to cure fully, based on the type of stain used.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Applying a sealer after staining is often recommended, especially for outdoor wood surfaces like decks or fences. It helps protect the wood from moisture, UV rays, and other elements, extending the life of the stain and preserving the wood's appearance. It also enhances the stain's durability and resistance to wear and tear. 

However, in some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection required. Always check the specific product recommendations and consider the wood's exposure and usage when deciding whether to apply a sealer after staining.
