"So happy we chose D&N Colors Painting, LLC when we decided to have our house painted. They pressure washed the house, our ramp, and the carport. We had them stain our ramp, too. Everything is just beautiful. And to top things off the price was very reasonable. We would recommend this company to all our friends and family."

"Professional, experienced, trustworthy, insured, and produced quality work. We are so happy to have chosen this company to build our deck. They measured often to insure that everything stayed in alignment . We used a composite decking so no future maintenance will be required. When they had a question they spoke directly with us. All our neighbors like the look too. Definitely a wonderful addition to our property."

"PZ Painting was incredible. They were willing to squeeze in our interior paint job during the busy season when no one else would. Ramses was so friendly and incredibly communicative from the initial meeting/estimate through to the last day of work. His crew repainted the entire interior of our house quickly and beautifully. I would recommend their services to everyone!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

Here's the deal with leaving used rags covered in oil-based stain lying around in a pile: Depending on the conditions, these rags can take just an hour or up to a few days to combust. The source of ignition is caused by trapped heat that can be compounded if the rags are near a heat source.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.
