"Cesar was great to work this. Came out immediately and provided a good quote. His crew was able to come out the next day. Power washed the fence, replaced some damaged boards and rebuilt the gates. Restained everything, the fence looks great. Cesar walked through with me ensuring I was satisfied."

"Thomas did an excellent job in sanding, staining , and then three coats of sealer on our front door. He took time making sure that each stage was perfect. You don’t get this type of workmanship these days.. I have no hesitation in recommending him and will choose him whenever I have another project."

"Michael and his crew did an exceptional job. Michael was very patient and made sure I got the right color on my house by doing a sample wall and he was never one to say no to trying another color. He and his crew did an exceptional job staining my home. They were very neat and tidy, and also didn’t get any overspray on other areas of the home that we were not staining and pressure washing. Michael even came back promptly when we found things that needed to be fixed in the end. Dallas varsity Painting is so good. I would recommend them to anyone. You will not be disappointed. Great quality, great work and great people that work for him. I would hire him again for sure."

"Platinum Painting was amazing! I needed cabinets painted in my kitchen and they were from the 2000 era (milky white/pink wash). Platinum Painting stripped, stained and finished the cabinets beautifully so they now match our hardwood floors."

"Wow! Troy and Shawn took our out of date knotty alder cabinets and made them brand new. They filled in the holes and the kitchen is now light and bright with bright white cabinets. We did the center island in a black magic and it was a work of art. We also changed our wall paint from beige to agreeable gray. This was no easy task with the great room being 20-25 feet tall. Our house now looks like a model home. Light, bright and cheery. A great job at a reasonable price. I would recommend Elite Coatings to anyone who needs painting done at a high level and a reasonable and fair price."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.
