Common questions about costs and estimates for this service.
To calculate the square footage of a rectangular or square deck, multiply its length by its width. For irregularly shaped decks, break the area into smaller, manageable shapes and sum their individual areas.
Minimal prep typically includes basic cleaning (sweeping, light washing) and minor sanding. Extensive prep involves pressure washing, heavy sanding, scraping old paint, repairing damaged wood, and possibly chemical treatments for mold or mildew.
Yes, painting railings and spindles is often more time-consuming than painting the flat deck surface due to intricate details and multiple surfaces. It's common practice to factor this into your labor estimate, either by increasing the per-square-foot rate slightly or by adding a separate line item if the railing system is particularly complex.
The cost of paint or stain can vary widely based on quality and brand, typically ranging from $0.50 to $1.50 or more per square foot if you solely consider material cost. This should be factored into your overall per-square-foot price or quoted separately.
A job would fall into the 'Premium' tier ($4.01–$5 per sq ft) if it involves extensive prep on a badly weathered deck, use of high-end, specialized coatings, complex architectural features, multiple color changes, or strict deadlines requiring expedited work.
