"Nashville Painting Company was recommended to us by Romabio to paint ("stain" I guess?) our brick house white. They came out quick for the quote, and despite us deciding to move forward with the job nearly 6 months later they still honored the quote and got us on the schedule quickly. It was originally thought our red brick would only require 2 coats of white tinted Romabio (Sherwin Williams "Greek Villa") but after the 2nd coat it was clear that the coverage wasn't enough and they very quickly worked to rectify with another coat. They also painting our foundation and our porch without issue. We had a color match issue during the porch painting (very likely our fault based on paint samples the previous owner left in the house), but NPC again fixed the problem very quickly and we were left with a perfect porch. The communication is exceptional from beginning to end. Highly recommend to anyone."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
