"I had College Works come out for a small project, just to stain my deck. I dealt with Alex who was nice and knowledgeable. I was impressed by his professionalism being as young as he was. Everything went smoothly, communication was great, his painting crew was top notch and the quality of the paint job was just what I expected. I would recommend College Works and would not hesitate to hire them again myself."

"Eric Peters was terrific in keeping us informed and letting us know what we needed to do (cut back some plants touching the house) ahead of time. He put us in touch with a color consultant who came up with a subtle color scheme that makes the house look much better, makes it blend into its environment (good since its shape is utilitarian) and makes it distinctive at the same time. The crew was efficient and quiet. When there was one mistake in starting to paint shutters the wrong color, they quickly corrected it when we spoke to them. Every one was pleasant and friendly to deal with. We had a positive experience start to finish and the house looks great."

"Five Star Paining in McFarland is a superb, outstanding company. They showed up on time, worked efficiently and was extremely pleasant to work with. They moved all the deck furniture and grills and didn’t say a word when my dog accidentally walked through the primer. I don’t ever see myself needing another painting company other than Five Star!"

"Carlos and his team completed the project earlier than originally planned and did an excellent job! They kept me up to date about what's going on and also did a minor repair for us for our deck painting project."

"The garage floor had already been done once with Epoxy and so I didn't know whether they could do it again. They were able to clean my garage floor and apply the new Epoxy without any problems. They also were professional and really paid attention to detail. I would hire them again."

"Rolando and his team were excellent to work with. Very responsive, professional, and efficient. The work looked great when complete and was reasonably priced for the job. There were a couple areas missed that I didn't catch until after they had left (they were painting a rental unit for me, not my primary residence); I think those were simply a miscommunication, I had no concern that those were intentionally skipped, and they were easy for me to touch up on my own. I would definitely hire them again for future painting projects!"

"Kenzie and his crew did an excellent job. We had a board to replace on our deck, and then they cleaned and stained our deck. They were also fantastic about clean-up everyday. We are definitely going to be hiring them for more work on our house."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

Choosing the right product involves understanding deck material, desired finish, and local weather conditions. Opt for high-quality, weatherproof formulations ensuring long-term durability and appearance retention.

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.
