"Simply put, Alex Williamson and his team are the best. Professional, capable, skilled, proficient, responsive, easy to communicate with, caring, delivers on promises, flexible, follows up -- where's my Thesaurus when I need it to look up more superlatives to describe the positive experience I had with Alex. He and his team expertly pressure washed the house and pool deck, painted the house/trim, repaired some soffit, and even pulled some unneeded cable from the exterior of the house at the last minute -- all for a very fair and competitive price. Alex, if you're reading this, as soon as I save a little more money for the next few projects I'm planning, you can count on the fact you will be the first one I call. Your business card is safely stored and handy when I need it."

"Genaro gave us a very reasonable quote and even when we had a color snafu he pressed on and got the color from alternate source. The final product was a beautiful yellow and white home. He even painted the chimney, house numbers, and front door. He started by power washing the entire house, caulked where needed, scraped loose/bad paint, taped all windows and trims that needed protection. The actual painting consisted of spraying, rolling, and brushing. He showed he really cared that the job looked like a new house. He wowed us and we plan to give him a shout for some interior work in the future. Thanks again for being so professional and courteous,. Joan & Jim"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.
