"I was very impressed with Fabiano Construction and the pro who did the work at my home. They replaced my stairs and handrail! The pro was so friendly and genuinely cared about the job he was doing. He was very professional and his work was impeccable! He was neat and cleaned up along the way. He answered all our questions and never acted like we were disturbing him. I would recommend this company to perform all your construction projects! They are a 10!!"

"The 2 gentleman, his staff; did most of the work. They covered everything with plastic. I had moved my furniture out of my bedroom. I was very pleased that the dust was limited. They came each day early. They took very little time off, and worked 8-4 pm. They did come 1 Saturday to do some work. When they were finished, they made sure I had a pathway in my house that was uncovered to walk around. I had a very good rapor with the staff (a father & son team). The owner, Chris kept in touch by phone and stopped by to make sure things were done the way he wanted. I was very pleased with the work they did!"

"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."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.
