"Jacob is very pleasant and mannerly. I gave the overall job from start to finish 4 out of 5 stars. The overall look of my ceilings is good and a much needed improvement from my popcorn ceilings. The wainscoting paneling gives a clean, modern farmhouse look. As Jacob is aware, there were some staffing challenges and family emergencies that delayed completion on his end. Given the delays, Jacob graciously offered not to charge me for the additional trim pieces needed to cover seams. As Jacob is also aware, I had envisioned a more finished look with regard to caulking and sanding nail holes, panel seams and trim pieces along with the second coat of paint. Despite the second attempt, the holes, seams and butt joints in certain areas are still visible which I have decided to live with and did not call Jacob to give him another opportunity to touch up these areas. Also, since the lighting fixtures werent removed or covered during the second coat of paint on the second visit, my new lighting fixture has paint on it. That said, Id definitely work with Jacob again and truly believe that he is hardworking and genuinely cares about his customers."

"IPE planking is a Brazilian hardwood of exceptional strength. Like all natural woods it is delivered warped and curved, but because it is very strong it is hard to install. Randy and Jessie worked 4 days doing meticulous work. The deck came out looking great and I would recommend them on any deck project.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.
