"Paulo and his partner did an amazing job painting our dining/living room. They also removed the popcorn ceiling that other painters would not touch. They were professional and their work tells it all. The owner also contacted me to make sure I was completely satisfied and if I needed anything touched up after my floor was sanded and sealed. I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for a professional great job!!"

"Great! The crew came early in the morning and left early in the evening, working in mid-40's degree temperatures. Although they have another days work to do, the porch already looks phenomenal and the front door frame is so much better than it was."

"I needed the backsplash in my kitchen done professionally since I chose tile, which is not something I could do. Torin fit my smaller project in , between his bigger outdoor projects. He was very professional, offered suggestions, did a great job, both installing and cleaning up each day so as not to disrupt my kitchen usage. His measurements and quantities were spot on( I was ordering the tile myself). I will definitely call him for my next project. His quote and finished price were almost spot on and very reasonable. I highly recommend him for anything you need done!"

"Lighthouse Painting just finished painting our home. The crew did a wonderful job, making sure each phase was done completely before moving on. We changed colors and after the two coats of stain, there are none of the old colors to be seen. Highly recommend them to others. The crew was easy to work with and put in full days on the job."

"I have used Northern Ridge to paint the exterior of my house, stain my deck and different parts of the interior on 2 separate occasions. The key difference for Northern Ridge is the attention to the prep work which makes all the difference for a job that will last and look good longer. The team was polite, friendly and always respectful of our needs. They always ended the day with a good clean up so our lives are least affected while the job was in progress."

"I recently hired Antonelly Pro Painters, led by Alex, to paint my mother’s living room, dining room, bathroom, and kitchen. They handled the walls, trim, ceiling and doors with excellent craftsmanship and great attention to detail, especially for her 80-year-old home. Alex provided a clear estimate, a reliable schedule, and outstanding communication throughout the project. The refreshed rooms truly made my mother’s day. I highly recommend Antonelly Pro Painters for their professionalism, quality work, and excellent customer service."

"I would highly recommend Star Painting!! They transformed my house into something that didn't look good into something beautiful! I absolutely love the job they did. They also were showed up whenever they said they would and finished the job quickly and in the time frame they quoted taking into consideration the rain days. Not to mention they are affordable and the crew was very friendly. I give them an A+"

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

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.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.
