"Armor Guard Review In August 2023 I had Barry the Field Manager of Armor Guard come to give me an estimate to repaint my 7 ft by 14 ft deck. The price I was quoted was more than double of other estimates with other companies. The reason I chose them was for the warranty. 5 years labor 20 years material and the warranty was transferable if I decided to sell my home. I should have realized at the time that the warranty was too good to be true. They were supposed to send a crew to pressure wash, fill all cracks and holes, sand, apply primer, and apply two coats of Sherwin-Williams Super Deck paint and sealer. Little did I know at the time the warranty by Armor Guard was a ploy. They sent one man a subcontractor to do all the work himself. I am retired and was able to be here to monitor each day with step by step photos that I took. First the man who came was told only to power wash and paint. This was my first interaction with Rodney the President of Armor Guard. Rodney was not helpful and was argumentative. He then agreed to prepare and paint my deck as was written in our contract. My deck was then primed and painted in the rain. The man who did all the work was being pushed to get it done quickly. As a result one week later I could see spots of primer and bare wood showing through the paint. Again I called Rodney and he told me that it was bird droppings and they left the paint so I should just paint it myself. He did send his subcontractors to look at it and they agreed that it did have many areas showing primer and wood. He agreed to have them come back to apply a third coat. They did. In April 2024, 8 months after the original painting it was showing primer and bare wood through the paint again. I contacted Rodney again he was rude. He did agree to have subcontractors come on June 8th to pressure wash the deck and then they would return on June 10th to repaint the entire deck. On June 8th two men from J&J painting showed up at 8:00 a.m. One of the men said that they would pressure wash and touch up but not paint the entire deck as Rodney had promised. He said that Rodney had only paid him $300 and told him to pressure wash and touch up. At that time I told them to just pressure wash and I would take this up with Rodney. They left my furniture in my driveway they left my hose on the ground with the nozzle off. They did not do a good job. They were only here about 15 minutes total. Rodney has not made an attempt to come to look at the work himself or do a final inspection. I have caught Rodney in lies and have gone through continued stress and anguish because of this. I have two photo albums on my phone with day by day pictures of the work from the beginning until now. I also have screenshots saved of every text message between Rodney and myself since August of 2023. He texts instead of phone calls and actually in this case it turned out to my advantage. Rodney then offered to come and have the men paint the entire deck but he also added it would be the last time. That to me means he was not going to honor his 5-year warranty. At that point I made the decision not to respond. I no longer want anymore to do with Rodney or Armor Guard. He made a statement that my deck was dirty and that's why I was having issues. He is a narcissistic liar and impossible to do business with. My complaint and his responses are on the BBB website. I am considering contacting a reporter since I have so much to show as far as photos and screenshots of our text messages from the beginning. I think it's important to show other people what happened to me so that they don't fall for this sham."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Clearwater, FL
The drying process for pool deck paint happens in stages, with initial drying allowing light foot traffic after the first day or two. However, complete curing—the point at which the paint reaches its full hardness and durability—takes significantly longer.
Weather conditions play a crucial role, with humidity and temperature affecting drying times. For best results, follow manufacturer guidelines and plan your project during a period of stable, moderate weather to ensure proper curing without interruption.
Painting offers an economical alternative to full replacement when your pool deck remains structurally sound. With painting costs ranging from $3 to $8.50 per square foot versus much higher replacement expenses, refreshing with paint makes financial sense for many homeowners.
Beyond cost savings, painting can dramatically improve appearance, enhance safety with slip-resistant finishes, and extend your deck's useful life. However, if your deck shows significant structural deterioration, investing in replacement might prove more economical long-term.
The ideal painting window occurs during moderate temperature periods with low humidity and minimal chance of precipitation. For most regions, spring and fall provide optimal conditions that allow proper paint application and curing without extreme heat or cold interference. Avoid scheduling during your region's rainy season or periods of high humidity, as moisture significantly impacts paint adhesion and curing. Planning your project during the pool's off-season also minimizes disruption to your swimming schedule.
When selecting between epoxy and acrylic formulations for concrete surfaces, consider durability requirements, application complexity, and budget constraints. Epoxy products, while more expensive at $100 to $200 per gallon, deliver superior chemical resistance and longevity, making them ideal for high-traffic or commercial settings.
Acrylic alternatives offer easier application and quicker drying times, but require more frequent reapplication. Your climate, pool usage patterns, and comfort with application techniques should guide your selection for optimal results.
