"Rainbow painting did an excellent job on our project! George was here every day and was very easy to work with. The crew was very professional and did high quality work. Nick and his wife came back for final touch ups to make sure everything was completed to our satisfaction. We are very pleased with how the condominiums and decks turned out."

Customers say: Quick response

"I needed my entire house and deck restained - i have a large cedar ranch. Ramon was super responsive, quoted a fair price and was able to commit to my time frame, which was pretty tight. His work was better than i hoped for, and he went out of his way to make sure that i was happy with the end result, even though the house needed a little TLC on the way. He and Branden were a joy to have around the house, always cleaned up after themselves, were prompt, worked super hard and finished early. I recommend Ramon without hesitation"

"I used this company for four different times and they always made a excellent job, plus they are very clean. The last ones was for my fence and unfortunately I had some issues with my neighbor but, because the professionalism and the support this company gave to me, I was able to complete the stain and my fence and now it looks great. I highly recommend this company."

"Shared with Public - Home Advisor Culver's Painting recommendation Josh and Alex at Culver's Painting were great and easy to work with. We had a husband and wife team, Javi and Griselda, stain our cedar siding and shutters, and they did an excellent job! Absolutely no complaints at all. They were detail oriented and we would highly recommend Culver's if you have any painting project. We love our new look!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

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.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
