"I had a deck pressure washed, railing and deck stained. Had repair to door and new screening on the deck. The handyman was professional, courteous and the results were exactly what I asked for. I am recommending him to my friends and family. Cost of project was below other bids. Definitely a rating of 5!"

"Disappointed to say the least. Josh and Bob seemed like good guys and things started out well. Hired them to clean out a foreclosed house and yard that was a mess. We are out of state real estate investors. They did clean out the house and removed the shed. They said the job was done and sent pictures of a cleaned out house and yard and were eager to collect payment. We paid them. Later, when we made it to the property, we found that the one part of the yard that was not in the pictures was filled with large piles of debris and wood (the remnants of the shed.) They flat out lied, and collected payment for an incomplete job; I would not trust these guys to change a light bulb."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Travelers Rest, SC

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.
