Repairs and cleaning should be resolved before a deck finish is chosen.
Balustrades and Posts
Check posts, rails, joints and end grain separately from the deck boards.
The quote should include all faces that can be accessed and any repair exclusion.
Steps and Handrails
Record worn treads, hand-contact surfaces, edges and safe access during the job.

Deck Staining vs Paint

Compare stain and paint only after checking product compatibility, maintenance guidance and a representative sample. Related pages: Painswick, Tetbury.
Anti-Slip Finishes
Do not assume that an anti-slip coating is required or suitable.
If requested, the proposal should identify the compatible product, preparation, intended use and drying conditions. Related page: Stroud.
How The Deck Painting Process Works
1. Assessment
Ask the decorator to inspect the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish and note anything that changes preparation or access.
2. Preparation
The written scope should state the preparation for the material, moisture and coating condition, repairs, access and compatibility of the proposed finish, including any repairs that are excluded or need another trade.
3. Priming
Name the primer or first coat for the identified deck material and existing coating. Any adhesion test and application should follow the product instructions.
4. First Coat
Agree the coating system and application method in writing. Drying and recoating should follow the product instructions and site conditions.
5. Final Coat and Inspection
Agree what will be checked at handover and raise any scope-related points directly with the decorator before the work is signed off.
