  • I'm not sure what you mean by 'deck cover', but if your deck is wood and you want to paint it, go to your local home improvement store and ask for their best outdoor deck paint. Be sure to clean and prep well so the paint will hold-up.

    Are you talking about a sunshade, an awning over your deck or your actual deck surface. Some more information or photo could be helpful to get you some ideas or suggestions suitable to answer your question.

    What type of material is the cover? The paint will be dictated by the material. Best general advice is go to Sherwin Williams store and speak with an associate. Show photos. If you don't want to paintit yourself, they can usually make a few recommendations of people who do work.

    Do a goggle serach for the best painters in your area. Read customer reviews and make a short list of preferred painters. Then call those and see who would best fit with your job.

    Is there already paint on the deck cover? What condition is it in?

    If there is old peeling or cracking paint, it will have to be scraped off completely before any new paint is applied, otherwise you will just be wasting your money on the new paint, as it will not hold.


    Keep in mind that when you are receiving quotes on the cost of the 'painting' jobs, some will be higher as the painters will be charging for the removal of the old paint, as well as applying the new paint. Some painters also charge more for using higher quality paint.


    Don't automatically go with the lowest quote due to price only, and be sure to get a written contract signed by both you and the painter before any money changes hands, and before any work begins on the project.

  • Someone who deals in exterior painting would likely be able to assist you.

    Get some bids from local painters. I would prep it with a power washing before starting. Good luck!
