"This was our second time hiring Carolina Superior Paint. The first time was for the interior, and they did such an amazing job that we knew we wanted them for our exterior as well. So glad we did because our house looks brand new now! We love that this is a small family business. You can tell they care and they paint the house as they would their own. Their attention to detail is unmatched! Kerry and his crew are communicative, reliable, and honestly just the best at what they do!"

"We hired Five Star Painting this past summer because they had done such a nice job seven years prior. They were extremely profession, from the initial call, through estimate, during the project, and following up afterwards. I would highly recommend them to family or friends."

"I am extremely pleased with the exterior paint job Wilmer and his team did on my wood frame home. They did an outstanding job, my house never looked this great!! I was impressed with their attention to detail, and they even painted the outside flap of the dog door so it blends in, and the screen doors too. If you are in need of a professional house painter, I highly recommend Wilmer's company. All of them are very personable and nice, and even my dog liked them. The price was reasonable and they are great to work with. Outstanding job guys I am a happy and satisfied customer."

"Be very specific about the expectations. The work performed was definitely what was originally discussed. I asked for power washing and trim painting. Painting was perfect, but the power washing was just a quick basic job. I should have been more specific about wanting the surface to be cleaned, even if it took extra work and a higher price tag."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
