"We have used Hutton Painting for several projects. Each time the experience has been exceptional. Shane and Cole keep in touch throughout the process. The crews arrive on time and work the whole day - do not disappear for hours on end. They spent a lot of time prepping the deck sanding by hand as well as hand taping each metal spindle on the deck! The result is beautiful. The stain is even and looks great. I would highly recommend this company."

"The contractor Johnny was willing to discuss the project and products with me in detail. He was punctual and committed to getting my deck cleaned and stained even though the weather was not cooperative. Our deck looks really nice!"

"My husband and I had a more complex project, which included painting the inside of a 5200 square feet house, staining beams and staircase, and adding additional work as the project went on. CertaPro was very professional, reliable, and took pride in their work. They were helpful in guiding us on our project in terms of what colors, stains, and additional ways to add extra character to our home. They even helped correct uneven walls, cracks, and baseboards. We are obsessed with how our home looks and will definitely use Craig and his team again! Definitely recommended!"

"Mark Konvolinka and his team of professionals are THE BEST !!!!!
They have now painted my entire house - inside & outside - and I would not even think about hiring anyone else for a painting project.  If he can't fit me into his schedule - I'll wait.
 We have be utilizing Mark & his team for 8 years and the absolute best thing is that I see the same guys every time.  I am so blessed to have found Mark.  With my first project, I got 3 bids for the job.  When Mark came to my house, I immediately liked him and his bid was reasonable. I was sold - and he will paint my house forever !!!!

"STOP-- if your looking for a professional painting contractor, look no further. you just found one. Donald and his crew prepared and painted 2 coats of paint to the exterior of our house. It is a  5 bedroom brick with a lot of wood trim, a rather large job. he started and was finished as per his estimate, there were no " I need more money requests "  as is common with others. also, they sealed and stained a new deck. he is not happy, until you are with his work.no down payments for the job, you pay only when you are happy and they are done. he actually answers the phone, unlike others you call and your call goes straight to voice mail. I would use his company again."

"The work that Zach and Always Perfect Contracting did for us filled us with hope! Being first time homeowners we despaired of ever finding the quality people we needed to do work on our beautiful Victorian Lady.  We had several companies come out and look at our front porch, which was sagging a bit, and had useless, waterfall creating, box gutters. We chose Zach because the repairs he suggested sounded like the best long-term solution. Some of the other contractors' suggestions were simple and quick-fixes (easy for them to do), but would not have given us the results we wanted.
Zach is a busy man, so it took him awhile to get to us, but he kept in good communication with us via email and answered all our questions. Once the work commenced, it went quickly, and we are exceptionally pleased with the results.  Zach matched the look of the rest of our house with new hanging gutters and new porch roof and shingles. It's beautiful! He also took the time to talk with us about some downspout issues we were having and put new downspouts on in such a way that future drain repairs will be easier.
The cost for the work seemed very reasonable considering how much was replaced, and his original estimate was accurate.  We intend to have him do further work on our roof and gutters.

"Gary came to the house to inspect the porch and cellar well. He took the time to answer questions and explain his plan to make the necessary repairs. He provided an estimate the same day. Joe (supervisor) and his work crew were easy to work with. Joe kept me updated and answered questions as the work progressed. When they close to finishing the work, Joe walked me through all the repairs made and sealed some additional areas at my request. In general, the project was pleasant from estimate to finished product."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.
