"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.

"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

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years. 

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Apply a wood stain or sealant to properly maintain a wood deck railing and keep it looking new. Sealants protect wood from moisture and weathering. Regularly inspect the railing for loose screws, damaged balusters, and other signs of wear to make timely repairs. Routinely clean the railing using mild soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.
