"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."

"We have hired Michael's Painting a few times, (recently last fall for our garage) to paint our house and detached garage. It is a very personal and professional experience. Michael is quick to respond and personally shows up throughout the project. His team takes pride in their work and are immaculate with clean up. Our garage from last fall looks great! We will hire Michael's Painting again and again."

"Bob and his crew were great and easy to work with. In addition to painting, they added railing to my porch, replaced some rotting boards, and trimmed some trees. To my surprise they also threw in a power wash to my deck that was desperately needed. Iâ m thrilled with their work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.

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.

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.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.
