When you need the best painting the area has to offer, turn to us and our 25+ years of experience, as well as our high retention rate with many satisfied customers. Whether you want to build your dream home or you need home improvements, we've got you covered!

"My crew from NSP was amazing. Professional, courteous, kind and on point to get the task done. Large 2 story colonial with addition and ovs garage. I believe it took total of 5 days because of early weather in October 22. No paint chips on ground, very conscious of my shrubs and gardens, you would not even know they were painting. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND this outstanding company and would not hesitate to have them paint my home again. The price was very fair, the warranty good but most of all they always stayed in touch to let me know what was going to happen etc. My team, Frank, Benjamin and Valerio were amazing. Peter the owner and coordinator did a great job. Thank you again. My neighbors stopped to tell me how great my home looks and asked for the name of the painters for them in springtime. Thats says much about Northshore Painting. Great job, great professionalism, great job. VCM Billerica Ma"

"I was thrilled that Leo from Crystal Painting could get his painters to do the work almost right away, which was what I needed. I never met them, but my tenants said they were very professional and cleaned up well after themselves. The only reason I didn't give an Excellent rating was because I did think the price was a little high. But since I didn't have much time before the re-inspection, I did not get estimates, just hired the first company I hired. So it's possible that this was a good price and in that case, I would rate excellent!"

"Diego and his crew did an absolutely fabulous job. He checked in regularly with us before starting the job, painted sample colors on our shingles for us to see them in place and power washed the house before starting painting. They took meticulous care, caulking, sanding weathered shingles and repairing a rotted window sill. The price was very reasonable. Diego is outstandingly gracious and personable. We couldn't be happier with the job. We've worked with many contractors over the years we've had our old house, and this was the most favorable experience yet. We highly highly recommend Vallen Pro Painters!"

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Cambridge, MA

Staining a standard 500-square-foot deck takes about 20 hours, including preparation and application. This timeline ensures a thorough job that enhances your deck's appearance and durability. The process will take longer if you include additional treatments like sealing or stripping. Weather conditions, drying time, and deck design will also impact the timeline.

You should stain your deck every two to three years to preserve its appearance and protect it from moisture, insects, and aging. Regular maintenance helps extend your deck’s lifespan and prevents costly repairs. In colder regions, staining in late spring–as soon as dry, warm conditions appear–ensures proper absorption and a long-lasting finish.

Staining your deck is a worthwhile investment. Staining protects the wood from mold, insect damage, and environmental deterioration. It preserves the deck's structural integrity while enhancing its natural beauty, adding charm and increasing property value. Restaining also reduces future repair costs, extending the deck’s lifespan for years of outdoor enjoyment.

The average cost to paint a deck is between $500 and $2,000. Hiring a professional deck stainer ensures an even, long-lasting finish, as they apply a protective layer that enhances durability and refreshes your deck’s appearance. The final cost depends on your deck size, paint quality, and labor rates.

You should always pressure wash your deck before staining to remove built-up dirt, dust, and other debris. Having a clean surface allows the stain to adhere properly, ensuring an even, long-lasting finish. Before staining, ensure the wood is completely dry to prevent moisture-related issues, which takes 24 and 48 hours.
