"Mr Williamson and his crew painted the exterior of my house. They were diligent to details and used superior material to give our place a much needed face lift. After finishing they even did a pressure wash and leaf removal on the gutters, Great job Alex and crew. KA merry Christmas to all of you. Bill Schwarze, Pelican Lane in Rockledge"

"Overall, they performed an excellent job. The team proceeded with the work efficiently and completed it extremely quickly without scarfing quality.fast. They did a great job matching the coating color we selected which turned out exactly as we hoped. Whenever any issues arise, Gary and his crew addressed our concerns promptly and to our satisfaction. They were easy to work with, professional throughout the process, and attentive to detail. We are very happy with the final results and the care they put into every aspect of the project. Highly recommend!"

"We hired Benny to repair, clean and stain our townhome deck as well as repair a damaged MDF windowsill. He directed his crew well and the work was done as expected. Just be prepared that deck work always is subject to weather! Benny provides his honest opinion and doesn t try to oversell which we really appreciated. I m hiring him again for the next job - just hope it s big enough to warrant his crew s time!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

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. 

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.
