Magnum Construction specializes in Residential Storm Restoration. We do it all: roofing, gutters, siding, interior/exterior paint, windows, fixtures, decks, sheet-rock and much more. “Respect” & “Accountability” is what Magnum thrives on. Our team is "Building Trust One Roof at a Time". Licensed, Insured & Bonded.

"My 40 year roof failed after 14 years due to hail damage, and installation issues that allowed leaks that caused some wood and some chimney board to rot. As you can imagine I was looking for quality not a cheap deal with the replacement roof and I got it with Magnum. They gave me a quote to replace the roof and all identified problems including the ceiling repair and painting. They can do everything, not just a roof which was great to only need one vendor. If you want a vendor who comes, does the work and leaves causing the least amount of disturbance as possible then check with them. They arrived with four roofers and four sheetrock installers and painters. They spotted a few issues during roof removal that were repaired and a gutter issue on the front of the house corrected and replaced. They came into the house, taped down floor covering, used foot protection and got to work. Some sheetrock in one room had to be replaced, and in other areas repaired and painted. They covered the furniture, swept up the sheetrock particles and did a fantastic paint job. You can not even tell where the replacement and repairs were made. They were very respectful of my property, courteous and very professional. They came to work and were very fast and accurate. They made it look so easy and didnt stay long enough for me to get nervous with a too slow job because they were replacing the roof the same time they were repairing the inside. I was so pleased I did a separate contract to paint my outside trim, gutters, and garage. The result is a thick, smooth paint finish with name brand paint. As i said, I needed a professional job this time, not a “deal” just to get the job done. I feel confident this project was done the right way and will last. They took photos of each problem for me to verify, gave me I a guarantee on the work and shingles. Since my insurance was paying for most of the replacement and repairs I upgraded my shingle quality due to the worse storms we are experiencing in more recent years and how quickly the prior roof failed. Sometimes you get what you pay for and I did pay a professional price but for a very thorough professional job which will extend the life of the roof and property. Highly recommend this company who can do just about any job you need inside or outside."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

While most stains will be dry to the touch within 12 hours, it can take up to 48 hours to fully cure. That means that while your stain might not be sticky within 12 hours, it’s still not recommended to get it wet or touch it until it’s had a chance to set for at least 24 to 48 hours.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

You don’t have to pressure wash your deck before painting. However, you must clean the deck, and pressure washing is one of the most efficient methods. Pressure washing quickly removes flaked paint, wood fibers, and embedded dirt. It also gets much deeper into the wood surface than manually scrubbing the deck—and the cleaner the deck, the better the paint can adhere. Ensure the wood is fully dry before applying paint.

Here's the deal with leaving used rags covered in oil-based stain lying around in a pile: Depending on the conditions, these rags can take just an hour or up to a few days to combust. The source of ignition is caused by trapped heat that can be compounded if the rags are near a heat source.
