"Luke’s attention to precise details and strive towards perfection made my project go very smoothly and the end result is a work of art. He even replaced a few deck boards for me prior to staining the deck and only charged me for the cost of materials. Luke was professional and the service I paid for was worth a lot more then what he charged me for. Out of the 4 contractors that I took proposals from his was the best offer to complete the job and his work is second to none. I plan to hire him for all of my painting and staining needs. You need to see his before and after pictures that he has posted on his Facebook for yourselves!"

"Jason seems to be a middle man, not a painter.  The crew that came to do the work he had hired, not a crew under his company name.  They had their own company, but were taking on extra work.  I had to reexplain everything to them as if Jason never spoke with them about it.  The color was discussed a few more times even though it was explained each time.  It took a few extra weeks till the work was done compared to the estimated time given.  Many excuses of why they(the painters) were behind and how much it was costing(Jason).  Was pressured by Jason into paying, yet the job wasn't completed.  I find if you pay before its done, then it will take a long time to get the small project done.  The work was spray, no brush.  Had to peel off some left behind tape and plastic and clean up some work debris of that etc.  You get what you pay for, don't let fancy photo's and brochures make your decision. There was no prep work other than taping windows, drips and over spray on deck and windows.  Pretty much average work if you don't care about quality.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.
