"Very professional and paid attention to detail- they got our house done in a week, weather permitting. We needed our log home stained on the outside a 3,000 square foot home and they were very knowledgeable, friendly and did an awesome and wonderful job! I would love for them to do our inside next. I would highly recommend them"

"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."

"We hired Ryan to replace the wood deck planks with trex. The project turned out to be much more complicated since much of the structure had rotted and had to b replaced. Ryan knew what to do and did it quickly and his fee was reasonable. I would definitely recommend him."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

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.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.
