"After contacting a number of contractors to get estimates for this job, I chose Gray Painting because I thought the proposal I received from Jason Gray, owner/operator of Gray Painting, sounded like it had the best plan for prep work for the job. This was important to me since properly preparing the surface to be painted is a big factor in ending up with a good paint job. Also, Gray's price was in line with the quote from the contractor who offered what I thought was the second-best prep plan, and I was favorably impressed with the timeliness of correspondence with Jason (quote given at the time of initial visit, phone calls always returned by the end of the next business day). As for the work done on this job, two men came on the day the project was scheduled to begin, and they worked diligently to scrape and sand (used an orbital sander) to remove the peeling paint and years of accumulated dirt and grime. (The paint was too far gone to power wash; there would have been paint chips blasted everywhere, and it would have gotten the exposed wood underneath all wet.) After scraping and sanding, they brushed off the loose paint chips and dust from sanding, and then they applied a coat of oil-based primer. (Jason had said they would use an oil-based primer to help stop the nails from rusting through the paint again.) Lastly they applied Sherwin-Williams acrylic latex paint. They were able to get most of the job done in one day; Jason came by himself the next day and finished up what was left to be done. Everyone was very pleasant, easy to talk to, and readily answered any questions I had. They all put tarps down before they started work to keep from getting paint chips/sanding dust or fresh paint on the ground/driveway as they worked. And I don't think they got any paint on the brick walls at all. It has now been almost a year since they painted, and it all still looks great. I would highly recommend Gray Painting."

"We highly recommend W.R. Painting! We hired them to paint our Shed, and our Decks, as well to replace some rotten wood on our Shed. Their attention to detail was terrific. Customer service was excellent, and their workmanship was top notch. They were a little pricey, but well worth the dollars spent. Thank you, W.R. Painting for a job well done!"

"Amazing communication, pricing was very fair, and even though the job cost a little more than expected. Chad never did ask for any more money upfront to finish the job. Chad and company went far and beyond, and expectations, we are definitely going to hire him for all of our paint job needs."

"They pressure washed, brushed two coats of stain on our cedar house, painted doors and windows, and replaced rotten wood. They were helpful, did excellent work and are very thorough. The only complaint we had was that they started seven weeks later than their original proposed start date."

"Blue Chip Painting did an awesome job on our exterior painting for the trim and gutters. Also power washed and stained our deck and fence. The excessive heat caused some minor issues on the decking and Ralph sent his team over immediately to fix the areas. Ralph is so professional and courteous."

"The job went very well. Laura (the site foreman) explained their process very well and put everything in a contract. Job was started and finished within the time frame they stated. Site was cleaned up every day (3). Painting a pergola was included in the price, so we thought they were competitive. Very happy with the result."

"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."

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.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
