"The garage turned out well. There were a few things done that was not perfect. They painted over some light bulbs and covers. The basement turned out great as well. There were several guys that came out and completed the project (including a ridiculous amount of nail pops) in just 3 days. This was the quaility of work I expected for the main 2 floors. The interior was another story. I was told when I received the bid that it would be a project that was squeezed in since they were very booked. Price was lower than the competitors so we hired. The company sent out 1 man to conduct the job. He was all over the place, missed spots and I was getting very stressed out. He fixed some nail pops but didn’t complete all of them. Additionally we would come home and see furniture and new carpet had not been covered up. Brush lines are still visable in spots along with paint runs. The home was empty and without furniture for 1 month. They were unable to complete the job while it was empty. The company had to come out after the pervious sub contractor was complete to try and fix and better the quality of the final product. Additionally, not everything was as it should be when final payment was made. There are stilll definite brush marks and color differences along all the corners and seems. Due to furniture being delivered that was too heavy to move, I will have to ask them to come out when we move again to see if they can finish some spots. The crew that came out to fix the job did well but there was so much space to cover they didn’t get everything. We are still noticing spots along the home that weren’t caught."

"Dennis and crew did a fantastic job painting the whole interior of our house, which was fully furnished. They moved and/or covered everything appropriately. While here other jobs not origanily requested were performed when asked, such as sanding and staining handrails, painting outside front door, as well as other small areas ouside not done correctly by the builder. Dennis is very detailed and made sure all dry wall imperfections were correctly taken care of prior to painting. Highly recommend."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

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.

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.
