"David and his team did a fabulous job on a pretty big project. It included decks pergolas and covered porches. The Wood was in terrible shape way overdue for paint and stain. The wood was badly weathered, and David and his team refurbished it and restored it beyond what I thought was possible. It’s almost like it’s new 🥰 They are enthusiastic, positive and very hard workers even through the hot weather. I highly recommend consider them for an outdoor deck patio porch that is overdue for care and maintenance. You don’t have to wait as long as I did. As is, I needed to replace some of the wood as well. I wish you the best for your projects. 👍 Mike Lawless"

"????? I had an excellent experience from start to finish. The painter was professional, arrived on time, communicated clearly throughout the project, and paid close attention to every detail. They took the time to properly prepare the surfaces, kept the work area clean, and the finished paint job exceeded my expectations. The quality of the work was outstanding, with clean lines, even coverage, and a beautiful finish. The project was completed on schedule, and the final price matched the estimate with no surprises. If you?re looking for someone who is reliable, honest, and takes pride in their work, I would definitely recommend them. I wouldn?t hesitate to hire them again for future painting projects."

Painting questions, answered by experts

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

You can use latex or acrylic paint outdoors. Although acrylic paint tends to last longer outside, it also costs more, so if you’re painting the outside of your house, for instance, latex paint is often a go-to option. However, acrylic will be your best choice if you want to spend some extra money for added durability.

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.
