"David and his crew were absolutely amazing! Very personable, professional attitude, and an absolute pleasure to work with! We have a large 2-story 3,000 sq ft house and wanted to completely change the colors including trim and garage door. The level of attention to detail and pride in their work far exceeded anything we have ever seen! We highly, highly recommend FloPro and will hire them again for any future painting needs! Our house has been transformed and we couldn’t be happier!"

"They were very professional, did exactly what I ask. They replaced some drywall and where a mirror once was they blended the whole wall and you couldn’t even tell there was once a mirror in the wall. They also placed a tarp up so dust would not leave the area they were working in. I will use them again if I need anything painted or drywall replaced and painted."

"WOW these guys are GREAT!!! They showed up when promised and did an amazing job. I had an issue with an area that they painted. He said they used a new product from Sherwin Williams and would be out to look at the areas of concern. They showed up with the Sherwin Williams representative and agreed the product didn't perform as promised. Sherwin Williams compensated True Brothers and True Brothers not only fixed the issue - instead of painting the areas of concern, they used epoxy which is about double the cost and twice as much work. I am so pleased with these guys and would absolutely hire them again."

"Our old bathroom vanity was falling apart and we desperately needed something done before summer. Jonathan walked through everything upfront and his team handled the whole project smoothly. The vanity installation looks solid and the tile work around the tub area came out clean. They kept everything organized during the work days and finished right on schedule. What impressed me most was how they managed all the coordination between different parts of the job. The bathroom feels completely refreshed now and the craftsmanship shows in all the details. Much better than some of the other contractors we looked at initially. Excellent timing for family visits this spring."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years. 

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.
