"R7 Painting did a fantastic job painting my house and staining my deck! They power washed everything first, then prepped in advance of painting. My deck had a few areas that needed to be replaced, so they did that as well. The workmen showed up promptly each morning and cleaned up each evening. All in all they did an A+ job. I have gotten many compliments on my newly painted house and have recommended them on our neighborhood website."

"If you are looking for a professional painting company, I would without hesitation recommend (Dario) of Custom Painting of Asheville. I have hired Dario and his team many times to paint our homes interior, remove popcorn from the ceilings and to stain our exterior decks. With every project we were extremely pleased with the company's quality and professionalism. His crew always worked together as a team to get the job accomplished in a timely manner with beautiful results. Bill Smoak"

"We were very pleased with the excellent and professional job re-staining our log home. Dario and his crew were diligent, reliable, punctual and very easy to work with. They were extremely hard working and finished our house before a visit by our relatives. We love the way our log home looks now !! We would highly recommend them to friends and neighbors and definitely use them again."

"Calico painting recently painted the interior and exterior of our home, and from start to finish I honestly canâ t imagine a better experience. Luis and his team were incredibly professional and communicative - always showing up on schedule, giving accurate time estimates of how long projects would take, responding promptly when we called or texted, and letting us know if there were changes or questions came up. Their work was meticulous, beautiful, and efficient. When unexpected water damage wreaked havoc partway through the project, they jumped right in on the repairs to help keep things on schedule. Throughout our fairly extensive renovation we often commented that Luis was the best person we worked with because he was SO reliable, a great communicator, and his teamâ s work was always high quality. They did beautiful plaster repair, wood staining, cabinets, interior paint, exterior paint, and even some woodworking for us. Luis also helped us troubleshoot issues with other subcontractors on our project. We loved working with Calico Painting, will absolutely be calling Luis for more projects in the future and have already recommended him to friends."

"I used Rueda Construction (Miguel Rueda) to build a large deck on the front of my home with half of the deck covered with a roof. I was so pleased with the job I also used Miguel to re-roof my home with metal roofing. That job required removal of an old chimney as well as replacement of several pieces of damaged roof sheeting. I also used Miguel to do some remodeling inside my home. Miguel and his employees are excellent. Their craftsmanship and attention to detail is fantastic. They are all well-mannered and very professional. They paid particular attention to making sure my home was kept safe and clean during their work, and left it immaculate when the job was complete. I highly recommend Rueda Construction for any of your construction or remodeling needs. They are top notch!"

"Very well. I was skeptical at first but Mr Miller put me at ease by sending his information and was very transparent. He said he would be at the location at a specific time, and was. Mr. Miller did a great job staining and keeping me informed of his progress through sending pictures and calling me. I would highly recommend him to anyone and will be using him again for my future projects."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

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.

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.
