"Our home in St Helena was ready for carpentry repairs ( due to dry rot), extensive caulking, and painting (primary color, trim color and accent color). We got five bids for the work, including one from a company which had recently painted two of our neighborsâ properties and received rave reviews from them. All five of the estimators were friendly, accommodating, and inspired confidence. The high bid was almost 2 1/2 times higher than the low bid, though all bidders proposed performing essentially the same work product. We chose VERY well when we selected Ruben Roman for our project. He and his helper did everything that we asked for perfectly, and they did it on time and on budget. Ruben also is an excellent communicator, texting and quickly responding with any questions that arose during the project, and sending daily up-date photos on the days when we were not on site. They both were also very easy, even fun, to work with, and when they found any unexpected issues, especially with the carpentry, they just took care of itâ ¦no extra charge. Weâ ve dealt with many contractors over the years, and have been fortunate in choosing well before. Ruben Ramon Painting is in our top tier of professionals for style, personality, quality, and price."

"Very easy to work with. I'd used them before but this time I got estimates from other contractors and was amazed how much more reasonable Cal Preserving was. The difference may be that the others pointed to additional steps that could be taken. Did Cal Preserving "miss" these things or recognize they weren't necessary--I'm inclined to believe the latter."

"After replacing our wooden deck we need to have the deck sealed. Platinum responded promptly. They provided options and cost estimates for different products to treat the deck. We received a written estimate the same day, the following day they powered washed the deck. Living in a coastal area the morning scheduled to treat the deck was damp. Platinum came back late in the afternoon to allow the wood to dry. The job was completed on time within budget. After the worksite was clean and the deck was beautiful. I would hire Platinum for other painting jobs, we highly recommend them."

"Recently we hired Prestige Custom Painting to do a small exterior job. The mark of excellence in painting is the amount and care that goes into preparation. Prestige met and surpassed our expectations. They were meticulous in preparing our trim work for painting. The result was beyond what we thought possible. In addition they were extremely careful and tidy. No drips. No spills. And they cleaned up the work area perfectly Finally, they were punctual. A dream for us We will definitely be booking Prestige Custom Painting to paint the rest of our house this spring."

"John and his team was very easy to work with. They were kind, respectful and cleaned up each day as they went. The bid was fair as was the pricing for changes I made. I’d easily recommend."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

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.

Unless you’re using a 2-in-1 formula or painting over an existing coat of paint, it pays to apply a coat of primer ahead of your new paint. Decks see a lot of footfall and exposure to extreme and sudden temperature changes and moisture levels. The primer promotes better paint adhesion, moisture repellency, and a smoother finish, which means you’ll often need fewer coats of paint. 

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

A concrete overlay is often the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck. To do this, you’ll need to pour a thin layer of concrete over the existing pool deck, which you can customize by stamping or painting. A stamped concrete overlay provides additional traction on a pool deck that can help minimize the risk of people slipping and falling.
