"I was so impressed with Wilber and his employees that in addition to painting our deck, I also hired him to pressure wash our deck and fence, replace the lattice on our pergola, as well as perform some other minor wood work. His responsiveness, quality of work and price were all excellent and would be hard to match. I have already referred him to several others in our neighborhood and look forward to hiring him again in the future!"

"We were very impressed with this company and would highly recommend them for your painting needs. Their representative Doug was very knowledgeable and very interactive with discussing our needs. Their design services with Jamie helped us with our colors. Her help was priceless. Baku and his painting crew was wonderful and took their time to obtain beautiful results. All our stained woodwork was painted white which is no easy task and looks beautiful. Our kitchen cabinets were painted by Ivan and the results transformed our kitchen. Absolutely beautiful finish. All their employees were very polite, knowledgeable and professional. Their price was comparable to other quotes we obtained. We would definitely use this company again."

"Tim and his team were courteous and professional during every step of the way. This was a large job and we had a tight timeline of 2 weeks between closing on the house and moving in. They started and ended on time, and even came back after the move to touch up where the mover's had left a few blemishes at no extra charge! All of the trim (crown moldings, chair rails, window frames, and floor trim) looks fantastic. This is an older house, so there were a lot of holes in the walls to deal with, but every room looks brand new now, with no signs of any holes or anchors. The job went so well that we hired them to stain our deck 2 months later- and it looks great as well! I would highly recommend Tim and his team for your next paint project."

"The crew was easy to work with and did a very good job. Weather was a challenge and they worked one Saturday to get the project finished. I think all of the cedar got 2 coats of stain as proposed, and they willingly bought the Olympic stain that I requested. They stated beforehand that they would caulk and finger smooth all windows, doors, and joins. They did this in most of the obvious places on the front of the house, but some of the caulk lines in the back appear to have been applied on top of the existing 8 year old caulk and were obviously not finger-smoothed. They honored their estimate and they were very reasonably priced. I never saw any to them wear a mask or face covering even when standing close to me in a conversation. They certainly didn't need masks when working, but all workers need to wear them when in close contact with a customer. I would hire them again. It was a good experience and I feel like I got what I paid for."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.
