decks & preventative maintenance

Prim Painting is a deck restoration, deck refinishing, and deck staining company in the Columbus, Ohio, area.

As a local painting contractor, we come to your home to discuss your deck restoration options. And no high-pressure sales tactics while we’re there. Instead, we send you an accurate quote for your deck – usually the same day.

deck refinishing

Your deck is an extension of your home so don’t neglect it. With the seasonal changes in Ohio your wood deck will inevitably fade or start to rot without the proper protection and maintenance. Deck sealing, staining and painting are ways to keep your deck safe from the damp, cold months so that it looks great for your summertime barbecues.

If your deck has really taken a beating from the elements, it may be time for an overhaul. Deck restoration begins with cleaning and sanding loose stain off the surfaces. Once the surface is ready, we will apply the appropriate stain. Don’t worry if you’re not sure what you need, we’ll guide you through the restoration process so you get the best results possible.

frequently asked questions

Can you stain a deck without cleaning?

This is a bad idea. You want to start with a clean slate (literally), and cleaning your deck is a key step in this process. When your deck is fully cleaned, the deck stain can be applied. This will ensure that you get the best look possible.

Should I power wash my deck before staining?

This is a good idea, but not totally necessary. Cleaning your deck with a proper deck cleaner is the most important step, and power washing afterwards can help but is not always required. We can help provide a thorough analysis based on your current deck!

Is painting better than staining?

It depends on what your goals are. If you have a wood deck, staining will help seal the wood, while paint will not. With paint, however, you have more color options and it’s also thicker than stain, so it may require less coats.
