Customers say: True professional

"I got a response from Brian within about 2 days. He and his counterpart, Larry, came over and evaluated our home's needs. Brian explained the process and gave me an estimate for the work that they felt needed to be done. Brian emailed me the prices and the work that they would do. I felt informed and was treated with complete respect and courtesy (Note: this was important to me because folks in the building field have often been patronizing and rude to me. I have attributed it to my gender after watching them be more appropriate with my husband.) When I was ready they were here within about another 2 days. My house now looks almost new and we are very pleased! I had received estimates from about 4 or 5 other companies, prior to this, and their estimates were 2 to 6 times what Adobe Painting quoted me. This and the fact that the Angie's list rating for Adobe was A+ persuaded me to hire them. I'm glad that I did!"

"All Star Flooring did an exceptional job replacing my old kitchen tile. They were efficient and thorough and completed the work on schedule. Juan and Cesar who did the work are real craftsmen--there is a night and day difference in the appearance of my kitchen. Given the quality of the work, the cost of the project was quite reasonable. I will use them again for future projects."

"Couldn?t be happier with the work Capital City Coating did on these built-ins in 2024. The glossy finish came out stunning and gave the whole room such a bold, elegant look. Every detail was done with care, from the smooth coating to the clean edges and overall craftsmanship. Even after time, the quality still speaks for itself. We constantly get compliments on this room! , talented, and easy to work with I would absolutely recommend them to anyone wanting custom cabinetry or shelving finishes with a Luxury look."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

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 don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

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.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.
