"Deck Renewal Systems delivered a beautiful, quality deck for our home! We are pleased with the outcome. The team was responsive, helped us to select a great material, was able to leverage existing framing (saved us money) and ensured the new deck was reinforced with updated support posts. They even flexed to accommodate our last minute decision to add a patio with another vendor so that the deck and patio worked together. The team was hard working and a pleasure to work with. Definitely recommend if you're looking to add a beautiful deck to your home!"

"Brad of Neumeier Associates responded quickly to do the job. He came to my home the same day to provide a quote to paint my garage door, the wood above the garage door and two porch columns 8 feet high. His pricing was reasonable. This was a small paint job of about 220 sq ft. Brad kept me informed of when he would arrive at my home and about project status via text messages. He communicates well and responded quickly to my texts to him. He always showed up on time. The quality of his work is excellent. I would highly recommend this company."

Customers say: Quality work

"Hatton Painting recently completed painting the exterior of our home. Our house has wood siding on the entire second level so there was a lot of square footage to paint. We were very pleased with the results. All the lines were clean and everything looks even all the way around the home. I would recommend them and would hire again."

"DWT did a very good job. They even power washed my wood deck and walkway. Strong work ethic. I would have rated their work with 5 stars, but 1). They didn't cover my newly installed landscape to protect it, so old paint scraps are all in it. 2). They didn't lay out tarp to protect my grass before they painted my gutters. Now I have gutter shaped paint stains on my lawn. 3). No clean up after the job. Scraps of old paint all over. I would hire DWT again."

"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."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

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.

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.
