"Absolute 10 out of 10 service and quality! Drazenko did an amazing job repainting the interior walls of our 2500+ sq. ft condo. Communications were outstanding throughout, beginning with first contact made within 24 hrs. of posting my project on Angi. Drazenko was out the next day to review the project and provided a quotation when he promised. He kept us up to date every step of the way, from letting us know if he might be slightly delayed to what he would work on each day and planned completion date. The drywall crack repairs are exceptional as is the painting. We very highly recommend AK Home Modifications for outstanding quality work and amazing communications."

"Working with Dave's company couldn't have been smoother from start to finish. I was looking for someone to do exterior painting and found Dave on Angie's List.  I filled out a form on his website to ask for a bid. Dave responded promptly, got a bid out right away and immediately got me on their calendar after I accepted the bid. His work schedule is on a calendar on-line, so you can see when your painting is scheduled, which is very handy. The painters did excellent work, and they were quick, efficient and very neat. When they were done, Dave made sure I was happy with the work, then e-mailed the bill (his prices are very fair) and that was all there was to it.  One of the most pleasant, painless experiences I've had dealing with a contractor.  The most difficult part of the entire process was trying to decide which color to choose out of the six samples that we had painted on the back of the house.  :-)  I would not hesitate to recommend Dave to anyone looking for exterior painting.

"We have a large home and had not cleaned the carpets in the entire 18 years we lived here. We researched all the local companies and finally called Arctic Septic and Restoration. Josh and his guys showed up on time and cleaned every room in the house. The carpets look brand new!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Eggshell and satin finishes are best for porches because they sit in the sweet spot between scuffable matte and distracting high gloss. Your porch sees a fair amount of wear and tear, so you don’t want paint that’ll show every mark like matte, but you don’t want to be blinded by glossy paint in the sun either. Eggshell and satin have durability and a look that sits nicely in the middle.
