"We did a remodel of our house down to the studs. Alix and his team were absolutely wonderful! He came in to give a bid and mentioned that we might want to look at shiming our very old and very not straight roofline because the drywall would hug the framing and we'd end up with a better product if we had a straight line to hug. (Excellent advice! And something that none of the other drywall bidders mentioned) We sadly had to push back our start date a couple of times due to failed electrical work and Alix was extremely understanding and able to work with us. His team showed up on time and worked long days to get our job done. Not only is he incredibly hard working but the finished product is amazing! Consistently even and smooth drywall and clean clear lines on the paint job. I would (and am) recommending him to my friends and family! Great job AVL!!"

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Seattle, WA

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.
