"Quote was itemized, work was started on date specified and I was kept aware of the progress and what steps were taken. Brick staining brought my older home up-to-date. Definitely would hire them again and have recommended them to my neighbors."

"Project: Interior paint and stain. Henry did some painting, cabinet repair, and cabinet staining for me. He was always punctual, and there every day. The project took 5 days. I especially loved the stain on the cabinets. Toward the end of the project my husband got sick and head to go into hospital. While I was with my husband, Henry finished the project. I was told when I came back, there was a surprise for me. Henry had painted a room I had planned to paint myself. This was a welcome surprise! All who were going to help me with this room were senior citizens, just like me. This was just wonderful, and all our joints thank him! I would highly recommend Henry as he seems to be knowledgeable about everything. His wife Christy keeps things running smoothly from the business end, and always lets you know where the project is at time wise."

"I have never hired pro painters & was anxious about the process. Dennis was to the point & explained the process well. The crew were all very friendly & took care of business. They did a great job. I would recommend Eagle Painting. The price seemed fair for the job. Thanks President Trump for the stimulus check. It went towards fixing up my home & stimulating our economy."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

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.

The best exterior paint for the job of painting your front porch depends on the material you’ll be painting. Acrylic paint is often recommended for a wooden porch as it’s durable and easy to apply. If your porch is made of concrete, you’ll need to find a formula suited to that material.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.
