"The owner Eric was great and always kept me up-to-date on the project timeline (I was painting my deck and obviously it was dependent on weather). He was very professional, and his two painters Edgar and Diego were wonderful. They were very thorough and the deck looks like new! Thank you Red, White and Blue painting!!"

"Noel and his assistant Dave were excellent.They painted the house, fence and all our outdoor wrought iron furniture. Their price was beyond fair. They were professional yet friendly. They went over and above their contract. We are so pleased with them that any further painting to be done in our home will be without question Noel’s company."

"Good as Gold brought my two level deck back to life. They used the highest quality materials and supplies. The deck boards are median cocoa color, spindles and railings white. I love the contrast. It s a master piece! Greg was so great to work with. I will have them back to do more work inside the home."

Small jobs welcome

"Mike with Moxie Home Projects was great to work with! We just had our laundry room and very outdated master bathroom painted. I am so happy with the outcome! Both rooms look fresh and sleek! He was clean and professional. Very knowledgable. He had great advice to help us with picking out the right colors which really helped make our small laundry room appear larger. He even helped us with hanging up our new shelving unit! Looks like a brand new room! We will definitely be using Moxie Home Projects for our future home renovation needs! Thank you Mike for your hard work!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.
