"They did all of the above and more. Several pieces of rotted wood were removed, replaced, and painted. A hinge on my gate needed fixing and they fixed that as well. After starting the project, we realized that the small upper deck had not been included in the bid but they did the deck as well. Also, in order to get the black stain off of the deck, they sanded the deck as well as power washing it. I was in my house most of the time they worked on my house and I have never seen a harder working crew. I would never hire anyone else to paint my house (inside or out) other than these guys unless, of course, I had to move out-of-state. The are an extraordinary group that went above and beyond just painting my house and taking care of my deck."

"They did a great job painting my interior. My only drawback is they were very "heavy" on the use of caulk which makes a very clean line between ceiling and walls, or walls and baseboards. Unfortunately they used a heavy hand and there is alot of caulk left that will be hard to deal with when I repaint in the future. Caulking is a great technique if almost all the excess is wiped away during application."

"CPC did an amazing job painting the exterior of my home! I had a short deadline - they were not only able to accommodate but they squeezed me in sooner so I didn't stress about whether the deadline would be met or not. We were so happy with how it turned out, it's so much brighter and refreshing! We get many compliments from the neighborhood. Highly recommend! Will definitely go back when I'm ready for an interior repaint!"

"We hired Galto Residential Contracting to remove the popcorn ceiling from the entire first floor of our house, plus the second floor stairway and hallway areas. I was given a competitive bid (one of four bids received) and we scheduled to work. Andy Galto and his crew arrived as scheduled, and completed to project in a workman like fashion on a timely basis. Popcorn ceiling removal is inherently messy. The real issue is in prepping the ceiling drywall for a smooth finish. The contractor worked with us to get the smooth white finish we wanted, done to our satisfaction. The premises were cleaned up at the conclusion of the project, though we still had to deal with some of the drywall dust generated though the smooth sanding of the new ceiling. Overall, we are very pleased with the work done, and at a fair price."

"I've had Owen do multiple projects around our home, from ceiling fans, shelving. Cabinets and many more. So when we moved into a house that needed a lot of work we called Owen. He installed a hanging very large kitchen hood, and made sure it was secured not only with the manufacturer recommendation but above and beyond. He also installed our very large heavy Iron Front Door. I highly recommend Owen you won't be disappointed."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

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.

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.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.
