"The detail to work is very professional. The owner and his crew are very polite as well as professional. They came in, cleaned and caulked everything first. Painted all of my windows, front and back porches, garage entry door and it all looks great. They also sanded to the bare wood my front door before staining and clear coating. They left everything very clean. The prices are very reasonable and the work is top quality. I would definitely recommend."

"They repaired a broken piece on the pergola, stained the pergola, gazebo, deck and benches.  A separate team removed the popcorn ceiling in the very large master bedroom and painted the walls and trim.  They were very efficient and did a beautiful job.  They cleaned up after themselves.  I was especially impressed with Albert, the owner.

"Contacted him on Monday and scheduled him to do the work on Thursday when I would be working at home. He arrived on time and quickly did the job. Excellent job on both the house and deck. I have asked for a quote to stain and seal the deck also, and he has said I will get that in a day or two."

"Great! I have a mansion on 4 + acres and David painted my outside house deck railings and all of my many feet of property and tennis court aluminum fencing, path lights, house window shutters, umbrella stands, light poles, and my 2 outside front and back doors and their inside and outside door trim of my 25 room house. DavId paints slow and methodical and is a perfectionist and is very neat and cleans up before he leaves every day. He actuality does more than you pay for if he sees a few things needed that you did not ask him to do. His price is fair and reasonable and only suggests the best paint and he let's you pay for the paint with your credit card over the phone while he is picking up the paint at the store as he makes no profit on materials and you only pay for his labor. I am a perfectionist also who was a CEO with integrity of a Fortune 500 company and I would never give this amazing recommendation if it was not 100% true. His company is rightly called "Precision" Painting by David! My only concern by my sterling recommendation is that he will be so extra busy by this coming Spring that he won't have time to fit me in to glaze my 3500 Sq ft pool deck, and the outside of my 6000 sq. ft house, and cabana. But I have to tell the truth about his quality workmanship at a fair price. Steve, Waxhaw, NC"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.
