"Everything about our experience with Five Star Painting was top notch. We were contacted right away after having been referred to them. A project manager was scheduled to visit our home understand and quote our project in a very timely manner. The proposal was received quickly, and the project manager called me to discuss and clarify all details. The scheduling process was prompt and clear. The painters arrived on time and did an absolutely 100% FIVE STAR job. We will use Five Star Painting for all our future needs, and although it may clog up their schedule, we highly recommend Five Star Painting to everyone. We could not be more pleased with the results, and are enjoying our refreshed, updated spaces like never before!"

"Very thorough during the bid process to determine scope of work. Happy they used Sherwin Williams super paint. They completed a 1100 sq ft ranch with 2 coats in a day. Also helped me scrape and paint a garage in another day. Good site cleanup."

"The crew worked together to power wash, scrape, sand and paint my deck. It had multiple layers that needed to be removed. It took place from start to finish over 5 days, with 3 to 4 men working. I'm very happy with the results."

"Nick refinished the maple cabinets and doors in our kitchen. Our house is just over 20 years old now, so the cabinets and doors had an expected amount of wear and were starting to look pretty bad. Nick removed all of the old finish, made minor repairs and sanded where necessary, then he did his magic so that now we have new white cabinetry that looks like we bought new. Nick is very thorough and explains what he is going to do before he does it, so there is a good level of comfort there. We're happy to show off our cabinets and would recommend Nick to others!"

"Garrett and his crew were professional, dependable, punctual, and friendly. They handled the expected and unexpected aspects of the job well. Overall, I am very pleased with Two-Day Painting and their work. I should have done a better job inspecting before they left on the final day, or asked if I could have waited until the next day (and seen my rooms in daylight). There was one area that needed touching up that I had to take care of, but I didn't notice until after they left. There were also things I noticed upon seeing areas in the daylight that I was not expecting. I'm sure if I would have seen and asked upon inspection they would have taken care of my concerns."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.
