"When I met Leo of HighRollers Painting I hired him because I could sense his integrity. His crew was very kind, efficient, and helpful. They also stained my deck and painted the foundation of my house. The worst part of the ordeal was me having to pick the colors for the paint and stain. Leo’s estimate of what it would cost was in the ballpark of what I was willing to spend. I give Leo and his crew five stars for their service ."

"Aaron, Nathan, and their crew did a very thorough job with power washing our house and fence, caulking, and prep-work. They did a meticulous job painting the house and staining the fence. The team was costumer focused. We had a very positive experience with Priceless Painting Contractors."

Customers say: True professional

"Our little roofed deck/porch was badly in need of restraining. We had done it ourselves in the past, but just didn't feel up to it this year. Left a couple of message with contractors, and Monarch was the only one who returned our call. Hunter came on a Sunday morning to look at the deck, explained their process and emailed us an estimate. He had told us they were booked until September so when September was half over I called to check in. He said we were on the schedule for the next week or so. We were actually out of town when they came, and the deck was done when we returned.
It looks nice except for a number of spots that are still shiny and a bit tacky to the touch. Not sure if they'll fade as the stain continues to weather. So it isn't perfect, but we're generally pretty satisfied, and the price was very fair.

"We were very pleased with Brian's work in our new home! We had him remove some wallpaper and do a complete paint job of 2 bedrooms, the living room, and bathroom. I appreciated his communication throughout the process, as some of the walls and ceilings needed a little extra care due to some stains from moisture and nicotine. He left the space neat and tidy when he was done. He knows his stuff and I would not hesitate to hire him again as we continue to work on our home!"

"Jamie gave us a couple options and we went with the pressure washing. He also came back and sanded areas that he did not charge us for. We had some issues with weather as far as getting it stained but he kept in touch with us and now the deck looks awesome. He did a great job at a very fair price and would highly recommend him."
Before
The paint was in pretty rough shape.
The polyurethane has darkened over the years. You can see where pictures were hung.
Quite a bit of scraping on the lower portions of the porch trim.
Fence is in good shape, but heavily greyed by the sun

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.
