"I had an excellent experience recently with Deck & Fence Renewal Systems. Brian and Jeremy removed 7 rotted 4x4 fence posts as well as the 2 foot deep concrete plugs in record time. The new posts were installed in the exact same location/height and were perfectly level. They also did a great cleanup and hauled away all the debris. I'll be using this company again for any of my fencing projects!"

"We hired Dwight to repaint our ceiling after another contractor messed it up. He also finished painting 3 walls that a previous painting company could not make time to finish. They were very professional and neat. I have just hired him for another job, Spray painting our new entry door."

"I had CertaPro Painters paint my house and my deck. The work was excellent and the finished price was in totally line with the estimate they provided. The only price adjustment was for the additional carpentry required to replace some rotting wood they discovered. The total cost was a bit more than I expected, though, with the price for the house being nearly twice what I paid 6 years ago and the deck roughly three times what I paid previously. I did not get multiple estimates so their price may well have been comparable across the industry."

"Garringer Painting recently stained my fence, and they did an outstanding job. The crew was prompt, professional, and paid close attention to detail. The stain was applied beautifully and really brought new life to the fence. They took great care with the prep and cleanup, and the whole process was smooth from start to finish. 10 out of 10 — highly recommend! I’ll definitely be using them again for future projects."

"The team sent to paint our ceilings and the wall/ceiling of our lower level was extremely efficient, and and the final look was excellent. We chose a very light color, and they applied three coats to get a nice, finished look. We will use this company again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, professionals offer slip-resistant options for added workplace safety.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

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.

Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.
