Deck Painting in Rhode Island
Deck painting in RI that holds up: we wash the wood, let it dry, do the prep right, then paint the boards, rails and steps evenly.
Paint gives a deck a solid, finished color that matches the house trim. Genesis Painting paints decks, railings, stairs and porches across Rhode Island, and Mario gives you a free written estimate.
Deck Painting or Deck Staining?
Paint covers the grain with a solid color and hides old, mismatched boards. Stain soaks into the wood and lets the grain show. Which one lasts longer depends on the wood and how the deck gets used, and Mario will tell you straight which way to go. If stain is the better fit, see deck staining in RI.
Deck Painting in RI: How the Job Goes
Wash. Dirt, mildew and loose, weathered fibers come off first, with the right pressure for the wood.
Dry. Paint won't hold on wet wood, so the deck dries before anything goes on.
Prep. Loose and peeling paint is scraped, rough spots are sanded, and bare wood is primed.
Paint. Even coats on boards, rails, balusters and steps, in dry weather.
Cleanup. We clean up before we leave, every day.
What We Paint

Rhode Island Weather and Your Deck
Sun dries the boards out, rain soaks them, and a Rhode Island winter opens up every crack. Prep is what keeps a painted deck from peeling in a season or two, so it's the part we don't rush. We're house painters in Warwick and paint decks across the state. See all our painting services in RI and power washing.

Questions, answered
Should I paint or stain my deck?
It depends on the wood and how the deck gets used. Paint gives a solid color and hides old boards; stain shows the grain. Mario will look at it and tell you straight which lasts longer.
Do you wash the deck before painting it?
Yes. Paint only holds on clean, dry wood, so we wash first and let the wood dry before any prep or paint.
Do you paint railings and stairs too?
Yes. Decks, railings, balusters, stairs, steps and porches.
