Q: Is satin or matte better for woodwork?

• <div><p>Satin is considered one of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/best-paint-trims.htm">best types of paint for baseboards and trim</a>, along with doors and cabinets. Its soft sheen can help enhance architectural details while standing up to frequent cleaning and everyday wear. Matte finishes are prone to scuffs and harder to clean, making them less practical for high-touch surfaces such as doors. </p></div>

Q: Is it worth sanding a deck?

• <div><p>It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-to-refinish-deck.htm">deck refinishing process</a>. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.</p></div>

Q: Is whitewashing permanent?

• <div><p>Whitewashing isn&rsquo;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.</p></div>

Q: Should you stain your deck or seal it for better protection?

• <div><p>Sealing a deck is better than staining in terms of protection. Stain on its own does nothing but change the color of wood, while sealing protects wood from moisture, insects, and UV damage. If you want to stain your wood, consider a stain-and-sealant-in-one to change your deck's appearance while protecting it from the elements. Reapply stain and sealant once every year or two.</p></div>

Q: How do I select the right paint or stain for my home exterior?

• <div><p>Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.</p></div>

Romero's provided a great service... I'm cleaning up my grandparent's property way up in the mountains and Romero's come out from Fresno quickly, on time, and very friendly. Plus, even with the long drive, the cost was very reasonable. Will definitely be using them again!

Randy Ware did an excellent job cleaning our dryer vent today. He is meticulous in his work and very pleasant to have around while completing his task. The work area was spotlessly clean when he was finished. We would recommend him to anyone who needs this type of service.
