"Zach was absolutely amazing! He is so easy to work with. He replied to all my texts with all the information I needed. He and Zoey cleaned and prepped our deck one day, and painted it the following day. Our deck looks incredible! They both have a very strong work ethic, and they are very congenial as well."

"Jesse gave us two estimates and had to return once after we changed the scope of the job. Knowledgeable, nice and personable guy. Helped us choose to paint brand and color scheme. Workers were very friendly and courteous, too. The job included painting walls, stained trim, fieldstone fireplace, and popcorn ceiling. Moved all furniture to the center of a great room and back again after painting. I've painted a lot of rooms myself and never got such sharp clean lines at molding and trim. Impressive work. Also cleaned up afterward but were very neat in doing their job. Covered everything with plastic or drop cloth. Job completed in two days. Also had a follow-up inspection by Mr. Sykes a day or so later. He found a few spots needing a touch up which he took care of. The cost was expense (but half of another estimate). But I could never have taken care of the ceiling and high walls. Too old to be on a high ladder. Would recommend them to anyone."

"We happened to see Brandon working at a neighbor’s and asked him if he could cut our yard as we were moving in. The backyard was so overgrown! He cut the yard, trimmed bushes, edged everything, cleaned up all of the limbs, etc and did it without his assistant who was under the weather. Also did some weed control! Brandon did a great job and worked quickly at an affordable price. He guarantees his work. Highly recommend!"

"Jason and his men came in and did exactly what they said they would do. They disposed of the old deck I had and built me a covered 10×20 deck. My yard was kept clean at all times and they didnt waste any time in putting together my new deck. Would recommend to anyone. They do a wide variety of work. Call affordable handyman !!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.
