"Benrahou Painting did a great job with the painting and door repair. Mustapha was on time and very nice to work with. He helped pick out the shades and finishes of paint to use for both the inside and outside of the house. He repaired the door before painting it so that I didn’t need to replace the doors. I have worked with many contractors in the past for other projects and he was much easier to work with and more reliable. I will absolutely hire him again for future projects."

"Painting outside of beachside house. Bryan was prompt with competitive bid. He and his crew are customer focused, very respectful and maintain a clean working area. He focused on areas that needed attention of chalking, stains, removal of mud daubers and sealing cracks. He understood the quality we wanted. He was flexible as we worked through changes of the project. He completed within the agreed timeframe. The completed project looks great. We are very satisfied and will on Advanced Painting for future projects."

"My experience with Hughie Dean’s was awesome from the initial meet and quote to the beautifully finished job. Daniel took his time, answered my questions, and provided a quote within 24 hours. The quote was very fair and I accepted immediately! I had just bought this home and the entire house needed to be painted before we moved in. The team showed up at 7:30 am with great attitudes and ready to work. I had to leave town unexpectedly and came back to a beautifully painted home. Daniel has a team of honest and professional staff that provide quality work. If you’re looking for an amazing company you’ve found them! You’re welcome :) you won’t be disappointed !! Thank you again for everything, we are settled in and couldn’t be happier."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Provided conditions are ideal, staining an entire deck should take as little as a couple of hours and up to a couple of days to apply and cure. Additional procedures, like sealing a deck or using additional treatments, may extend the project by a few additional days.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.
