Wood decks
Florida sun turns an untreated wood deck gray and dry within a year or two, and rain gets into the cracks and starts rot.
Deck staining and deck painting both start the same way: a low-pressure clean to remove gray fibres and mildew, sanding where the wood is rough, and replacing or re-fixing loose boards and popped nails. Then you choose the finish. A penetrating stain soaks in and shows the wood grain; a solid stain or deck paint covers it and lasts longer, but can peel if moisture gets underneath. Wood refinishing on an older deck that's been painted before usually means stripping the loose coating first. [PRICE: per sq ft]
Fences
Fence staining brings back color and helps the wood shed water. On the Treasure Coast, the shady side of a fence goes green first, so every fence gets cleaned before it's stained.
We clean, let the wood dry, and spray or brush the stain on both sides, or just the side you choose. Fence painting works on fences that have already been painted, or if you want a solid color to match the house (exterior painting). [PRICE: per linear foot, one side and both sides]
Pool decks (pool decks)
Pool deck painting and coating refreshes a faded or stained concrete pool deck without tearing it out. Most Treasure Coast pool decks are plain concrete or a textured cool deck finish, and both fade, stain and grow algae in the sun and splash.
Every job starts with pool deck cleaning (pressure washing), then cracks and chips get patched. A coating made for pool decks goes on top, in a color you choose, with a texture that stays grippy when wet and cooler underfoot than plain paint.
People search for pool deck resurfacing and cool deck resurfacing for this kind of job. Some resurfacing means a thick new overlay; ours is the coating and painting side, for decks that are structurally sound. Paver pool decks get cleaned and sealed instead: see paver sealing. The pool itself, inside the water line, is a job for a pool contractor. [PRICE: per sq ft]
Which finish lasts longest in Florida
On wood, a solid stain lasts longer than a clear or semi-transparent one, usually a few years before it needs a refresh. Clear and semi-transparent stains look more natural but fade faster in full sun, often within a year or two. On pool decks, a coating made for pool decks outlasts regular concrete paint, which wears off quickly with water and foot traffic.
What it costs
Decks and pool decks are priced by the square foot; fences by the linear foot. [PRICE: JC's typical prices for a deck, a fence and a pool deck.] Repairs, stripping old coatings and two-sided fences add to the price. Send photos for a free quote.
You deal with JC from estimate to walkthrough
José "JC" Vega started as a custom home painter and has painted homes across the Treasure Coast for over 10 years. He built the business himself, starting by selling his finishes door to door. As a painter, he'll tell you the secret to paint that lasts is the prep: the washing, patching and priming you can't see once the color is on. He was featured in Stuart's River Living Magazine, and JC Vega's is family and locally owned, based in Fort Pierce.
Questions
How often should a deck be stained in Florida?
Most decks need it every 2 to 3 years, sooner in full sun. When water stops beading on the wood or the color has faded to gray, it's time.
Stain or paint for a wood fence?
Stain for most fences. It soaks into the wood and fades gradually instead of peeling. Paint gives a solid color but needs scraping when it fails.
How much does it cost to refinish a pool deck?
[PRICE: JC's per sq ft range for pool deck coating.] Cracks, chips and how much old coating needs removing are what move the price.
Is pool deck resurfacing the same as painting?
Not exactly. Resurfacing can mean a new overlay troweled on top of the old concrete. Painting or coating adds a new color and grip to a deck that's still in good shape, for less money.
Is a coated pool deck slippery when wet? (pool decks)
Not when the coating is made for pool decks. These coatings have a textured finish that stays grippy under wet feet, unlike regular concrete paint or a glossy sealer.
How long does a pool deck coating last? (pool decks)
Usually several years, depending on sun, foot traffic and pool chemicals. Regular concrete paint wears off much faster, which is why pool decks need a coating made for them.
Can you coat over cracks in a pool deck? (pool decks)
Small cracks get patched before coating. Large, wide or shifting cracks mean the concrete underneath is moving, and a coating won't fix that.
How long does it take to stain a fence?
Most fences take a day or two: one day to clean, time for the wood to dry, then the staining. Weather can add a day.
