"Honey the end result looks decent… however had we not complained repeatedly about the prep work, running paint, missing paint, graffiti looking paint, it wouldn’t look this nice. We got the impression they wanted to do half way work and get paid. Paint still needs be cleaned up in areas. Over spray on the siding. The doors were painted but the weather stripping was ripped off so now we have to replace it. Would run water over and over with no respect of who is paying the bill. Dropped a 5 gallon bucket of paint from the roof on to the driveway, getting on car, siding and driveway. Took my husband 3 hours to clean up with power washer. Additionally brought broken sprayers that he used to spray all over the grass to get to work instead of just using a box to spray on. No prep work was done on the doors and you can tell it. Paint is runs, bubbles from no sanding underneath, etc. like I said at the end it looks good on the roof, the rest I am sure we will have to redo at some point. It’s a good 10ft stand away kinda job. They are nice but if you want someone will tons of experience idk if it’s them. After all the problems he still expected full payment, he did try to fix the issues once he would see it but it could take hours for him to realize it’s that bad and then an apology text with I will come back tomorrow to fix it."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Kalona, IA

When you paint your deck, you can choose any color, and cleanup is easy, but the paint hides the natural wood grain. Stain, on the other hand, lets the wood grain shine through, but requires more maintenance. The cost to seal a deck is about the same as painting. Consider your personal preferences to see which option benefits you most.

For bare wood or cement decks, you only need to clean the surface before applying the first coat of paint. If you're recoating an existing finish, you'll need to pressure wash the deck to remove chipped paint and debris. Either way, make sure to allow the surface to fully dry before moving forward; otherwise, the finish could peel.

A gallon of paint covers between 125 and 300 square feet, depending on its formula. Since your deck might need two coats of paint, for a standard 300-square-foot deck, you might need two to four gallons. If you're painting a pool deck, keep in mind that the specialized non-slip paint covers less area because the texturized material takes up more space in the can.

Yes, you can paint directly over old deck paint if the existing finish is in excellent condition. You should inspect the surface to ensure there's no cracking, peeling, or chipping before proceeding. If you notice any deterioration, you'll need to remove the compromised paint. Clean your deck thoroughly with a power washer, lightly sand any rough spots, and use the same type of paint to guarantee proper adhesion and long-lasting performance.

Yes, applying a coat of primer before painting your deck is essential unless you're using a combined 2-in-1 formula. Primer enhances the adhesion of the new paint, establishes a moisture barrier, and creates a smooth, uniform surface. Be sure to inspect your deck for any defects or old finishes, and use a high-quality primer to fully prepare the surface for a durable and pristine finish.
