Shield Boulder Decks from Sun and Seasons

Life along the Front Range means enjoying mountain views from your deck. But Boulder’s intense sun at this high altitude and annual freeze-thaw cycles can damage your outdoor sanctuary. Whether in downtown Boulder, North Boulder, or the neighborhoods east of Foothills Parkway, That 1 Painter preserves outdoor spaces across the city.

We start by power washing away grit and grime that accumulate through Boulder’s sunny, dry climate and seasonal snows. Then, we artfully apply stains specially engineered to handle the region’s intense UV rays and temperature swings while showcasing natural wood textures. We offer colors to match Boulder’s natural hues, from warm cedar tones to cool grays in Rocky Mountain.

With experience protecting Boulder County decks, we reinforce against heavy snow loads, select perfect colors, and seal out moisture for long-lasting vibrance. Our products match the Colorado high country’s unique climate so families can enjoy their outdoor escape from the urban bustle or college crowds.

Quality craftsmanship is all about perfecting the detail work, and we train our painters to pay extra attention to the areas other painters miss. We take pride in finishing every job to perfection.

OUR PROCESS

STEP 1

Pressure Wash with Wood Brightener

We use a pressure wash with a brightener treatment for Boulder’s high elevation. This removes debris while preparing the surface for maximum stain absorption.

STEP 2

Strip Old Stain

We strip away old stains and prep often-used pine, cedar, and composite decks for long-lasting protection against Colorado’s intense sunlight.

STEP 3

Replace Damaged Boards

We replace damaged deck boards to restore structural integrity before applying protective stains. This prevents future cracking, splintering, and wood rot.

STEP 4

Sand Away Imperfections

Our team sands away rough areas to ensure the new stain adheres evenly across your entire deck’s surface.

STEP 5

Apply UV-Resistant Stain

We use a spray-and-back-roll technique to thoroughly apply quick-drying, durable stains specially formulated for high sun exposure.

Tyler Jones
That 1 Painter had a very competitive quote for a workshop/studio painting job. We opted to go with them due to their excellent reviews, good communication, and knowledge. And we are glad we did. That 1 Painter did an excellent job, the whole studio looks stunning. The benefit of using this company is that they will get the job right. We asked for some minor touch ups and they had it done fast. They even fixed two things that were not their fault, at no additional cost. That’s excellent service. And they have a warranty on craftsmanship. So if anything goes wrong later - I doubt it will - I feel good knowing they will be out to fix it within a day or so. It’s nice to get that level of service, and it’s quite rare. Highly recommend.

We are beyond grateful to That 1 Painter for choosing Longmont Humane Society and our Well Pet Clinic as recipients of their Paint It Forward campaign! Their team did an absolutely fabulous job bringing new life to some of the most neglected areas of our facility. The refreshed spaces look AMAZING, and their generosity and professionalism truly blew us away. It's clear they care deeply about giving back to the community, and we couldn’t be more thrilled with the transformation. Thank you, That 1 Painter, for making such a beautiful difference for the animals, staff, and visitors at LHS! 🎨💙🐾

That 1 Painter received positive reviews from Angi's List network, which was the initial filter I used to find painting contractors. I contacted 5 different companies about new exterior paint on my home. That 1 Painter distinguished themselves during the preliminary process and bidding. The company owner Pete Johnson was very responsive, honest, and professional at every step of the process. His crew was exceptional with their work, and my home appears brand new. I will definitely use them again, and will refer them to my neighbors, family, and friends.
