"I recommend this company without any hesitation. I have very high standards which few people can meet. However, Jose and his team did it! I would come home after work and magically another room was painted with much attention to detail, the area absolutely clean, and my furniture/decorations back in their exact same spot. They were also very helpful in providing color suggestions. Everyone in the crew was excellent. "No" is not in their vocabulary. They even helped with carpentry. They are fair and did not nickel and dime me."

"They did an excellent job of painting the interior of the house, including covering the old and new patched areas with texture, creating a beautiful interior walls. They also painted the decking of the balconies and the railing. The interior looks like a new home. They did a great job and I would use them again and recommend them to anyone."

"Very professional, did the paint and repair job in a timely manner. The only reason I didn't give all 5 stars was a there were a few areas where the paint bled under the tape leaving some touch up for me to do and perimeter needing touch up. Cesar and his crew were very helpful and respectful."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

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.
