"Excellent! The painters were on time every day and moved all furniture/items off deck, power wash, scape and sand all rough wood areas also did extra repairs like fixing my gutters so water wouldn’t leak on the deck and repairs on deck stairs / trim, I wasn’t expecting that extra work they did, top of the line products were use on my two tone deck and it looks beautiful There professionalism and quality of work has far exceeded my expectations and I have and will continue to recommend you to my friends. Thank you Paint and Rollers!"

"Sebastian and his crew checked all the boxes and were the best we have experienced in the 44 years we have lived in this house. Very pleasant, professional and responsive. We could not have been more pleased and know they will be the first we will call for further painting needs."

"E&A Painting - Everett and team did an outstanding job painting the whole interior of my home. The quality of work was nothing but excellent and his price was fair and reasonable. Everett and crew were professional, punctual and cleaned up after each day. We will be having E&A painting back out in July to stain our new deck. - Work done, walls, trim, doors, fireplace and staircase."

"CertaPro seems to have brought on someone whose job it is to help insure customer satisfaction.  I was contacted by this gentleman who listened to my issues.  The Project Manager cam out and again, reviewed the situation and agreed to correct it.  After discussion we agreed that they would correct all the issues with the final finishing of the deck and do their best to match the deck color (the original paint is no longer available). 

It was further agreed at that time that because the color could not be matched and that it would be difficult to break the seal of the current paint, so the deck would not be uniform (can still see some of the issues from before), CertaPro would come back out in the spring of 2016, powerwash the entire deck to break the seal and re-stain it at a significant discount.

While I still feel strongly that, had the job been done correctly at the beginning, I would be a much happier camper, I am pleased with their willingness to make it right.  This deck job was not the first work they have done for me.  I have been satisfied with the other project."

"Chris Westfall and his company came and gave me estimate to replace my old weathered deck boards with a composite decking. They also replaced my railing as well. They showed up on time and the workers were very nice. They also stayed within the budget that was quoted. I would definitely hire them again!"

"Michael of Faith Painting got in touch to confirm the details of the job and promptly scheduled a time to provide an estimate. I was very pleased with the estimate and the way he explained how he would do the job. He completed it quickly and even followed up with a phone call later that same day to make sure I was still pleased with the results. He did an excellent job and I highly recommend him."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

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.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
