"I enthusiastically recommend Summit Painting LLC (Stuart Riensche, owner) for house and deck painting. They painted the exterior of our house and our deck at the end of May and did an excellent job. The pressure washing and priming and painting went without a hitch and the house looks great. The painters were punctual, professional, courteous, efficient and receptive to requests ( e.g., removing an awning and frame, disposing of paint and primer-containing liquid waste at an offsite facility, and excellent cleanup). They also removed, replaced and painted a deteriorating deck banister. The price was very close to the estimate and was very reasonable. I wouldn't hesitate to hire them again when needed."

"Potts Painting is the best! We had a ton of trim, (including 3 deck and stairs), painted on a large, hard to access, 3 story house. The team power washed and prepped prior to starting the painting which took about a week to complete with two people working long hours. They were professional, cleaned up everyday, and checked in with us on any questions they had before proceeding. Great experience; highly recommend!"

"Just was so impressed with Pinehurst Painting Company from the very first point of contact through the completion of our project, which included pressure washing and re-staining cedar fencing that surrounds our property along with pressure washing our driveway. Pinehurst’s prices were competitive and the communication, attention to detail and follow-through was excellent. The care the crew took to protect our gardens and landscaping surpassed expectations. This company is top-notch, and honestly, I feel so lucky to have found them; we’ve already asked them to come back for a second project. Strongly recommend."

"I am so pleased with my experience with Hedlund Painting. I contacted Zakary to repair trim / banister damage from an anxious puppy, as well as paint my kitchen cabinets and walls. I could not be happier with the result. Micah, the project manager, was on-time, detail-oriented, and caring in my home. I really appreciated how he stayed on top of the project, and that the project completed on time. I also want to credit the MASTERFUL painter/carpenter, Jesus, who painted our kitchen to PERFECTION and MASTERFULLY repaired our trim / banisters. I could not be happier with the outcome. Jesus was meticulous, skilled, polite, on-time, and a general delight to have in our home. I could not recommend Zakary, Micah, and Jesus enough - I will definitely be reaching out to Hedlund again for future home projects."

"The service from Rubumco was excellent from start to finish and even post completion. Russ the owner ensured that our house and decks were cleaned prior to starting the painting job to ensure a quality product and a sparkling house when the job was finished. I am very happy with how the paint is holding up; a testament to their workmanship. I even recently called to obtain some touch up paint due to some additional construction on the house. Russ answered my call and immediately ordered the paint for me. All I had to do was pick it up. Who does that anymore?!"

"This was the cheapest of three quotes, so I was leery, however I couldn't be happier with their work. They hand scraped all the peeled paint, then primed all those spots before painting. It took them three long days to paint an 1800 square foot home. Highly recommend them as they are hardworking efficient painters."

"We recently had our new fence stained by E&A. By far they were the most responsive of all of the painters we contacted. The work performed was excellent and their team was extremely friendly and professional. We highly recommend them to anyone looking to do some painting or staining! Excellent service!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.
