"Home2renovate began work immediately and showed up to work every day. The workers were skilled and diligent. The work professionally performed. They cut out sections of dry rot from the eves and other areas, repaired the damage, caulked and painted. They also repaired the patio, replacing two badly rotted beams including the main patio support beam. The did not drip or splash paint on brick walkways or patio and cleaned up every day before leaving. I would hire them again for any home maintenance or addition project."

"I am a landlord and hired Richard to paint and add stucco to my triplex. He also replaced fallen stucco from underneath my second story pathway with wood. He also fixed/added the wood trimmings to each (4) garage door. His work surpassed my expectations and he finished the job in a timely manner. His work is very neat, his woodwork is precise and outstanding. I am going to hire Richard again to paint the interior of my triplex in the near future and very excited about it. I would highly recommend Richard. He is honest, knowledgeable and talented."

"I Recently had the pleasure of working with Idan Mizrahi and Viktor Hohlov, who installed new windows and did a full exterior paint job on my house. From start to finish, they showed true professionalism, exceptional skill, and a genuine commitment to high quality work. The windows installation was seamless- they handled everything with precision and care, ensuring each window fit perfectly and looked great. As for the exterior painting, the results were beyond my expectations. they used a meticulous spray-painting technique that provided full, even coverage over my stucco, giving my house fresh, modern look. plus, they really cared about my landscaping and keeping the roof from excess spray. What impressed me most was their attention to detail and respect my property. they kept the work clean, communicated regularly, and were responsive to any question I had. It's clear they take pride in what they do, and it shows the outstanding results. I highly recommend Idan and Viktor for anyone looking to upgrade their home. I am defiantly going to u use them in the near future for more inside work this time."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years.
