"David and his crew painted the exterior siding and trim, garage doors, stained my deck and painted an interior large room this past week, April 2022. David was very good with communication, and went out of his way to accommodate me. He also honored a 2-year old quote as the scope of the work had not changed. I am very happy with the work done, and the team's commitment to finish the job on-time. Well done. Would definitely refer him to others, and will hire again."

Customers say: Terrific value

"Overall the home was powerwashed quickly and looks pretty good. I was disappointed that the back gate was left open (we have a docile Golden Retriever who thankfully does not leave the yard), and two of the potted Plumeria plants (on front of deck, not close to home) were knocked over. The area of the back of the house, within the screened porch, was not powerwashed?"

"They did a great job on the roof at a reasonable price in comparison to the other quotes I received from other big name companies. Roof was a 20 year old and need an update. Appreciate, the straight to the point sales pitch. Constant communication throughout the process. Happy with the job thus far. Will continue to monitor for any issues."

"Excellent work, professional and very friendly.  I would recommend to anyone looking for power washing services.  I have larger stucco house with large deck and patio.  Steve and Ray did an outstanding job.  They walked the property after they completed service with me to ensure I was satisfied.  I highly recommend this company."

"I feel sorry for amyone that had an opportunity to work with this family owned, local business, and wind up using someone else. Ive had an amazing experience with Jay, his brother Serge and the crew that worked on my home for 3 weeks. They have worked closely with my designer and painted the entire home. We also found out that they do carpemtry too and had them do the ceiling trays in the great room. I will be recomending them to all of my family. Terrific job LHI!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Here's the deal with leaving used rags covered in oil-based stain lying around in a pile: Depending on the conditions, these rags can take just an hour or up to a few days to combust. The source of ignition is caused by trapped heat that can be compounded if the rags are near a heat source.

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.
