How much does it cost to have a deck painted?

While simple deck painting or deck staining services can cost between $500-700, some larger deck painting jobs can cost over $1,000. Deck painting service costs will depend on the size of the deck, as well as the amount of preparation, deck resurfacing and/or deck restoration work required before any painting or staining can begin. Your deck painters will be able to assess the needs of your project and provide a detailed quote prior to beginning work.

What is the best way to resurface a deck?

For best results, Local Pro deck painters will sand and/or power-wash the deck clear of old paint, finishing or other dirt and debris before applying any new paint, stain, or seal. Doing so will ensure the best value and lifespan for your deck painting services or deck staining services. In some cases, more extensive deck restoration services are required to replace things like loose, cracked, or rotted planks before any deck staining services can be completed. Your Pro will be able to assess the condition of your deck and discuss your best options.

Is it better to paint or stain an old deck?

As long as the proper resurfacing work is done, the decision whether to paint or stain an old deck is mainly a question of personal preference. Deck staining helps maintain the look of natural wood, while deck painting allows you the ability to choose from a full range of colour options.

Can you stain an old deck without sanding?

While deck staining services may be completed without prior sanding and resurfacing work, you will only get the best result – and the most long-term value for your money – if deck resurfacing work is done prior to refinishing.

Is it OK to paint over old deck paint?

If new paint or stain is applied over old paint that is cracked, peeling, or otherwise weathered, it can trap dirt, debris and even moisture. Without the recommended resurfacing work, you will likely need deck painting services again sooner and risk accelerating the degradation of the deck’s wooden planks.

How long will it take to complete my deck painting services?

Most deck painting services can be completed over 1-3 days. The amount of time your deck painters require to complete the job will depend on the size of the deck, as well as how much resurfacing and/or other preparation work is needed prior to painting or staining.

Why should I hire a Pro to refinish my deck?

While deck painting and staining is a popular DIY project, it can be difficult and time-consuming to get the job done right. Our deck painting services Local Pros are experienced professionals who are committed to ensuring you get the best results for your deck painting project. They can leverage their knowledge and expertise to assess your needs and provide a range of options that work best for you.
