"Jamie promptly responded to our call for an estimate and came out to give the estimate a couple of days later. He was prompt to respond to any emails or calls we made. During our conversation regarding the estimate, we felt that he was honest and trustworthy. We didn't realize that the first person that had stained our porched sealed and stained over mold. At first, Jamie didn't think he would be able to get the mold off of the porch without an intensive process and gave us options for dealing with the situation. However, he kept trying and was able to get the mold off before he sealed and stained the porch. He made recommendations on stain type and color. Jamie and his helper came out one day to powerwash and returned a few days later to seal/stain the decks, which they finished in one day. The decks look great! We highly recommend A Brush of Class Painting and will definitely use their service again for our decks or any painting we need done. The breakdown of the cost below is $985 for the large deck and $360 for the small deck. It was definitely worth it for us."

"This is our second home and our forever home. I contacted Fence n Deck doctors and the estimator and I walked the property and discussed what I was looking for; I wanted openness, country looking and something to contain 3 dogs. Fence n deck doctors suggested a particular style and showed me pics of a 4 board ranch style fence with wire. I got a written estimate and a date to begin. Installers came a day before original start date, which was great. The head installer listened to a concern of mine on one side of the yard and he explained the process perfectly. I left for most of the day and returned to what was a 100% perfect fence for the property and exactly what I wanted. The entire installation crew was professional, efficient and great carpenters! From start to finish, I honestly couldn’t be more happy. I also want to add my other house, the fence there was installed by Lowe’s and it was an absolute nightmare! I wish I would have had Fence n deck doctors do first one too!"

"They were quick to give me a quote, they explained the process and what type of primer and paint they would use, they double checked what color we wanted before buying the paint. From my first call to completion of the project only took a little over a week! They were also the least expensive quote we received. Will definitely use their services again!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

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 can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
