"Exceptional well, the crew, Pedro, Felipe and Christian arrived on time everyday and worked very well together. They left little to no mess and cleaned up anything that was missed, clean drop clothes used and plastic covering all the furniture. We had some stains on the ceiling which they took care of, repaired and caulked what needed to be caulked, and carefully covered some of the most awful colors left by previous owners. A job well down and I would recommend Culvers and this crew to anyone that asks. The owners Alex and Josh stayed in contact to ensure we had no problems and to deliver some items that were needed, a dedicated company."

"Nick was honest about what to expect. Wear is showing after a couple winters But he did a great job. My deck looked beautiful when it was done. He also did several other painting projects on the exterior that turned out better than I could imagine."

"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."

"When finished painting the inside of our garage, the painters removed all of the drywall contractors tape masking which he had left after he had applied a texture coating to all of the walls. This included two doors, a window, the garage door and the entire garage floor that was masked off. We are having Steve stain our deck next. Great job!"

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

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.
