"David, explained what he will do prep, patch and paint my home. He listened to my wife's concerns about paint color and matched her paint perfectly. He is a true professional finished the job on time and on budget. The house looks great, and I would use Flopro Painting for my next project. Robert H. Port Charlotte, FL"

"I cannot say enough how happy we are to have found Loui and his company to install our driveway and walkway. We had a complicated issue involving diverting water away from our house and we needed a unique solution. Loui went the extra mile to help us develop a modern sectioned driveway and walkway that is specifically designed to address our water issues and it looks beautiful. I highly recommend this company. Loui and his family were a real joy to work with. Bill and Claniece"

"We just had the exterior of our house painted and it was an exceptionally fine job. All of the steps involved, from power washing to caulking to sealing to painting were completed exactly as Ryan specified. The crew arrived promptly as scheduled and were highly organized, efficient and, above all, professional. When the job was completed, they left our house neat and clean. I highly recommend Southern Painting to anyone seeking a house painting contractor. They delivered as promised and we were completely satisfied. If we could give more than 5 stars, we would. You won't be sorry."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Oxygen bleach uses hydrogen peroxide as a base and won’t harm wood when using it as a cleaner. On the other hand, chlorine bleach breaks down wood at the cellular level and causes irreversible harm. Although you may not see immediate damage to wood after exposing it to chlorine bleach, its strength and integrity are now compromised.

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. 

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.
