"Excellent. The deck looks beautiful and the paint should last several years. They cleaned up after they were done. I’m very glad that I hired them."

"Wes and the crew at Straight Edge Painting Pros were outstanding. Wes quickly returned my calls, gave a very reasonable quote, and the crew did an outstanding job repairing damaged wood and staining the house. In addition we had new wood garage doors installed after the house was stained and the Straight Edge team came back right after installation to stain these doors as part of the original estimate. We are very satisfied and would strongly recommend Straight Edge Painting Pros to anyone looking for house painters."

"The contracting process with SouthEnd Painting was seamless. The sales team and front office were very responsive to all of my questions and especially patient with my (several) last minute changes. They have even helped with providing the colors used several months later, so I could mange some touch-ups required due to light fixture changes - super helpful :) I was happy with the look of the home and have received several compliments on the work. I have already recommended SouthEnd Painting to friends and will use them again in the future."

"While replacing our gutters on a two story house, we discovered that we needed the soffit and fascia replaced. We called 5 contractors. Three said the were too busy, one gave us what we thought was a very high estimate and the last couldn't get out to give us an estimate for at least a week. A friend suggested we contact Mr. Morend who answered my call immediately and was more than willing to come out in the evening to look over the project. He arrived on time, took all the measurements and said he would have an estimate for us the next day. Early the next day we had our estimate which was more in line with our expectation and based on the recommendations on Mr Morend we decided to accept his bid. When we explained we needed the work done as soon as possible he offered to come out on Saturday of the Labor Day weekend. He and his crew arrived on time and simply went to work. They worked steady and did an outstanding job. They removed the old soffit and discovered some additional rotten trim. Everything was then replaced and repainted. We could not be more pleased with the work that they did. There is no doubt that we will be contacting Pristine Images again."

"We were needing some interior work done at our home.  This company was amazing from the beginning process, when they came out to give us a free estimate.    The estimator was very professional and knowledgeable in the painting field.  He made sure that we were given the best estimate for our budget and for only what our home was needing done.  Once I got our estimate, I called the office and they set our date for the painting to begin.  On the start day of our painting the crew arrived on time and ready to start in the morning.  The job went smoothly and the crew themselves were very professional.  Once the job was completed, the crew made sure to have the job cleaned up before they left.  I could not believe how lovely my home looked, with just having the walls painted.  It made a huge difference.  
Also my estimator came to my home, once completed, went over the job with  us to make sure everything was in order and had met our needs as a customer.  I would not only use Advance Painting and Roofing in the future but I would also recommend them to family and friends."

"They were very good to work with. I put some time constraints on them and they came through. They were in constant contact and there were no surprises. I plan to have them back to paint the garage and will definitely use them again if I change the paint color."

"Tripp was amazing. I am very impressed with the quality of his work. I needed my deck power washed, sanded, repaired and stained. He showed up when he said he would be here and he just was a very nice gentlemen. I will definitely be hiring him again to do work at my home, he is a true gem!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

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. 

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.
