"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!"

"Culver's painting did a great job. They had the fence completed in one day with a crew of 4. We needed them to come back to do some touch up staining that they had missed, and they were back within a week to complete the job. I would definitely hire them again."

"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 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."

"Juan and his crew are outstanding. My house and barn look like jewel boxes. And not a drop of paint spilled anywhere! They protected all shrubbery and decks with drop cloths and cut back branches where they needed to be. The crew was polite and efficient. Quick to discern and repair previously unnoticed problems. Their price was very fair and reasonable. Power washed, scraped, primed, and 2 coats of paint in 5 days. We bought the paint -- Behr Premium. Hire this crew. You'll be glad you did. If I could give them 10 stars, I would."

"We recently had Jose and his crew paint my son's entire condo. Upon meeting Jose he was very kind, confident, and excited about helping my son revamp his new living space. Jose's mission statement listed on his website is absolutely accurate! The communication, attention to detail, and quality of work was outstanding! The cost was very fair for the quality of work done. I would 100% recommend this company and will hire him again!!! A+"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
