"Excellent! Don and his crew arrived on time, 8 am, all 3 days, took a one hour break for lunch, and quit work around 4 pm. We had pointed out what we knew of rotted wood, but they found much more, mostly window sills and deck wood. Got our approval before doing each job. They also hung a garage LED light for a nominal price. The jobs were brush painted - no sprayers. There was a minimum of overpaint, if any. At the end-of-job inspection, Don immediately corrected the few very minor problems. Great jobs. Highly recommended."
"They promptly called me back the following morning after my request for a quote and very pleasantly and professionally educated me on the risk of scrubbing or bleaching stains from my roof. Their willingness to educate and help the customer make knowledgeable decisions shows me that they go above and beyond! I will definitely use them for any services I need! "
Victor and his crew showed up promptly and completed the job in the committed timeframe. The patio and deck looked great, it really restored it to a brand new look. On earlier jobs we have also had Paintmaster paint the exterior of our home; ceilings and trim in the interior; stain a pergola and repair some wood rot outside. Victor is always very pleasant and professional and takes care to ensure his work meets all of our expectations. On his last visit he noticed a couple of other unrelated things (more wood rot and a leak) and took care of them without charge while he was here. He is very attentive to details and offers constructive suggestions on how to address issues. We are always pleased with his work (four jobs) and would recommend to anyone to give him a try. He seems to keep very busy, which probably reflects his growing base of customers. We will definitely consider Victor for any future needs.
"When I called, we set a date for July 31, 2015. The team arrived promptly and did an excellent job, the best gutter cleaning ever. They were polite, friendly, and efficient. I told the young man who did the actual cleaning that my house was 500 square feet larger than the basic charge, $139 for 2,000 sq.ft. When they finished, the additional cost was $45, which I was quite pleased with. They also cleaned up my deck and patio, which I particularly appreciated. Usually it has been left in a mess, but my deck was clean and my plants survived. Based on my experience, I would be happy to consider Risher and Sons for this and other projects. "
There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for.
Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.
Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.
