"This is such a great company!!! I am the worst at picking out paint colors and put off getting our great room painted for nearly a year. Alisa was so sweet and patient. She even came over and helped to guide me to the perfect color for our space. I am so grateful!!! The entire team was wonderful! I am very particular about things and I didn’t have a single complaint about the quality of the job. Plus, the company supports many local programs for our community. We will definitely call 5 Star Painting for future projects! (And you should too)"

"The team did a fantastic job. They prepped the exposed and damaged areas thoroughly and it looks great now. They were very diligent in their process of getting into every crevice, with a hand painted coat, followed by rolling a second coat. I can tell it will last a long time. Great work. I appreciated their communication before and during the job."

"Was able to come out and quote within a couple of days & able to complete work based on my needed timeline. Very professional, and Sean was the sole painter which I appreciated the person I met doing the work. No paint on trim or new flooring, very precise. Will hire again and recommend to friends and family. Thank you! - Nick & Jen"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

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.

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
