"My experience with ALR Painting was excellent. Alex was on time everyday and took the utmost care in painting the exterior of my house and my workshop. My house looks amazing. Alex even helped me with my color choices which alleviated a lot of the stress of picking the correct colors. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family. A++"

"Rick Davis was very personable.  He was prompt returning any phone calls or addressing any color or paint concerns.  He provided our bid for the exterior painting in July before our siding was completed so we planned on scheduling after the siding was completed which was the end of August.  We requested a bid to stain our newly installed back fence the first day his crew came out for the exterior preparation and accepted his proposal.  His crew did a great job preparing the exterior for paint and protecting our new landscaping and concrete.  They completed the entire house in one day and returned the next for minor touch up and to stain the fence.  Rick was very thorough in communication throughout the whole process and our house looks awesome.

"Martis Concepts was recommended by a friend.  We had Martis Concepts paint our master bedroom suite first.  I wanted to test his work on a smaller project.  Our bedroom has 10 foot ceilings a 15 foot inset in the center.  There is a seatee area that has an entry with columns and built in book shelves that cover one wall.  The woodwork turned out beautiful.  The columns and the bookshelf are like they were done at a factory.  He also painted a contract color on the inset ceiling which turned out perfectly.  The paint job is so impressive.    
    Since I was so happy with the master bedroom I contracted Martis to do the rest of the 2013 project.  Downstairs was the living room, den, dining room, entry and spiral staircase.  Twenty foot ceilings with eight inch crown and six inch floor moldings.  Eight doors, two are paned.  Four columns support the stair landing.  The oak spiral staircase was also painted.  The living room fireplace has built in cabinets that open to a wet bar on one side and TV and Stereo cabinet on the other.  Bookshelves flank both sides of those cabinets.  There was an inset mirror above the fireplace.  Martis removed the mirror and retextured the walls adding a tube to thread electrical wiring to the TV which is now mounted over the fireplace.  Also above the fireplace are two large insets that were painted an accent color.  New fans were installed in every room.
    Upstairs were three large bedrooms with walk-in closets, built in desks and bookshelves and each bedroom has a bathroom.  All three rooms were painted as well as all of the woodwork.  Bathroom has new granite installed.  Emanual is a perfectionist and without requesting painted the closets walls the color with all of the shelving white.  They turned out so impressive.  Finally, another staircase leading down to the kitchen was also painted including the railing which was originally oak.  
    I don't mean to go on and on but I feel a need to outline the complexity of the project.  The cost was very reasonable compared to the amount of work that was required.  Also, we used the highest grade paint and had custom colors created.  The work was excellent.  I am so happy we used Martis Concepts.  One thing that can't go unmentioned, we had a piece of crown molding at the top of the circular wall above the staircase.  The installation was not done properly and it was sagging.  Emanual fixed that and using plaster actually molded over where it was originally pieced together.  It looks like one piece of molding and I can't tell where it was repaired.   Words can't truely explain my pleasure with the job.  We will be remodeling our kitchen next summer and I will certainly ask Martis Conepts to do the work.  I wouldn't think of using anyone else.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, they provide design insights that enhance space utility and visual appeal.

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.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

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.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
