"David & his team at Fresh Coat were simply amazing. From the 1st phone call to the last meeting they were professional, friendly, thorough and went above and beyond. We needed our deck repaired in a couple spots and painted. The quote was timely and fair. The work was professional and the team went above and beyond to make sure the furniture/lawn/lower deck were all protected during the job. The head painter has very high standards, asking to have further pressure washing done before he started the painting process. They also performed some extra work, not originally included in the quote. I would highly recommend Fresh Coat to any one!!!"

"we hired 5 Star Painting to apply stain to the exterior of our condo building and paint trim. They were courteous and very professional. The crew displayed an exceptional level of skill, professionalism and the ability to breakdown the project into manageable elements and finish the job in a seamless manner. We would hire them again."

"My new house was painted a dirty greige (grey + beige) throughout. It felt like a cave! I needed my ceilings painted white ASAP and Kevin Fournier and his crew did such a great job! They were professional and thorough. They painted every ceiling on the main floor in two days. I am super happy with their work and would definitely recommend and hire them again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

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.

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.
