"This was a deck re-stain 3 years after a complete exterior house/deck painting job, so we are repeat customers. As before, they provided solid advice, firm quote, used quality materials, workers showed up on time with COVID masks. Very nice work on both prep [power wash] and stain, two coats applied accurately, and nice job of cleanup. These folks do an excellent job, as I see fall/winter rain hitting the deck I am especially glad we had it done right."

"Potts painting was great. They painted the exterior of my house and the following year I hired them to paint the full interior. Rob the owner did not hesitate to address a bubbling problem with the new finish on the exterior in spots due to the old stain."

"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."

"Jerry and his crew did first rate work. Never having painted the exterior of my Old Tacoma home (not since I've moved in), I didn't understand the intricacies of painting an old home with a different siding than the current siding available in new homes. Jerry was able to suggest not only the best colors for this type of home and weather conditions, but the specific type of paint that would last the longest in our wet Pacific Northwest. The job was done both quickly (the painting began on the first nice day following our agreement) and was completed within a few days. There was rain following the first day of painting and a little of the paint dripped making for an unsightly line in the wall. I left Jerry an email then followed up the next day with a call only to find out that his men had come early that morning and fixed the drip. The house has now been painted for a few days and it looks excellent! I couldn't be happier and would recommend Jerry and his crew to anyone. I have a fairly large exterior and found Jerry's pricing very competitive."

"The team painted the outside of my house as well as all of my interior trim and a few rooms. In addition, they stained an outside area and deck ceilings. Exceptional work and professionalism. They were focused on providing the best service and I couldn't have been more pleased with the results. Highly recommend this company for your painting needs!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Apply a wood stain or sealant to properly maintain a wood deck railing and keep it looking new. Sealants protect wood from moisture and weathering. Regularly inspect the railing for loose screws, damaged balusters, and other signs of wear to make timely repairs. Routinely clean the railing using mild soap, water, and a soft bristle brush.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must.
