"It went great! They communicated often and very respectfully, followed up when there were rain days and with other information to keep us in the loop. Worked quickly through our deck and it was done in a couple of days (working with rain in the afternoons/weather delays). It would’ve been faster! I noticed they took care and time to make sure they didn’t paint on my siding/flashing that touches/adjacent to the deck. Appreciated that attention to detail! Would hire again."

"RNC was very responsive to my project. We had an upfront price within 24 hours and agreed to get the project started. The communication between us was on point. I knew what was happening every step of the way. The project was completed in the time frame specified. Robert and Carla were very detail oriented, down to the position of the screws on the cover plate going the same direction as the switch. We have hired them again to paint the bathroom."

"They did an amazing job! I needed my whole house repainted, they came in gave me a bid, and after I hired them, they were done 3 days earlier than expected. I have another house that needs done and will absolutely be hiring this crew again for the work!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

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.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

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.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.
