"Rick is the poster guy for over performing. He pressure washed our siding, gutters, blew off debris off our garage and house roof, and made other suggestions concerning roof replacement. I had no idea or roof was failing or soft, but his inspection revealed issues which need repair and issues of which we were totally unaware.. Ill have Rick back to pressure wash/strip and paint my deck and for any roof repairs we decide on. He was extremely professional, upbeat, and respectful beyond belief. Should I need any serious home repairs, I have his card on hand as the job he did was exceptional.. A+++"

"They were puntual and ready to do the job in the time set, even earlier to start. They kept the other areas cover and protected from the painting job. They always wanted to make sure the customer was satisfied with the job, if not they will come by and work on fixing it promptly. Very friendly and respectful crew. Great final job."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

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.

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.

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.
