WE NEVER MISS A SPOT

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

Custom Pressure Washing

We utilize commercial-grade pressure washers and specialized wood brightener cleansers for Colorado’s high-altitude climate. This lifts deep-set grime from weathered deck wood, preparing it to absorb premium stains.

STEP 2

Innovative Stripper Application

We’ve formulated a proprietary heavy-duty stain stripper that clings to vertical surfaces while dissolving old finishes from pine and cedar deck boards. This allows comprehensive staining and protection.

STEP 3

Precision Deck Board Replacement

Using digital measurements, we cut and install replacement composite decking materials to flawlessly match your existing layout, restoring structural integrity.

STEP 4

Two-Stage Sanding Process

We start with coarse grit sandpaper to smooth weathered areas, then fine-tune with extra-fine grit for a polished finish ready for UV-resistant stains.

STEP 5

Custom Spray and Back-Brush Technique

Our expert painters use advanced sprayers for quick stain application, followed by a back-brushing method that pushes the finish deep into the wood grain for unrivaled durability.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Why is deck staining vital in Central NJ?

Central Jersey endures sweltering summers, cold winters, and dense foliage that can cause cedar and pressure-treated deck boards to crack, warp, and invite fungal growth if unprotected. Our expert staining seals out excess moisture prevents UV damage from constant shade, and fortifies boards against freeze-thaw cycles all year.

How often should I stain my Central New Jersey deck?

We recommend reapplying protective deck stain every 2-3 years for homes in tree-lined towns like Westfield, Summit, and Madison. This shields against precipitation, seasonal debris, pollen, and extreme temps that rapidly weather decking. Staining preserves your backyard investment.

What’s the best deck stain for Central New Jersey?

The heavy humidity, damp winters, and UV filtered through dense trees call for durable, water-resistant penetrating stains. We recommend transparent or semi-transparent options that protect wood integrity without obscuring the natural grain. Tannins in cedar and PT lumber benefit from consistent sealing.

Can you repair my Central NJ deck before staining?

Absolutely. We reinforce loose nails, replace severely damaged boards, fill cracks, smooth rough areas, and ensure the surface properly absorbs premium protective stains. This prevents peeling or fading even in wet microclimates under dense tree canopies.

How long does your Central New Jersey deck staining take?

The full power washing, stripping, repairing, application, and drying process lasts approximately 3-5 days, depending on the deck size and extent of repairs needed. We work efficiently with weather-resistant fast-drying stains to minimize backyard downtime so you can relax on your refreshed deck sooner.

This is the second project we used That 1 Painter for and I'm very pleased with the experience. Carlos was an excellent communicator and showed up when he said he would -- I don't take that for granted! I got multiple prices and That 1 was the lowest. If needed, I will use again! My thanks to Carlos and his team!
