"I have to compliment You on your service and, in particular, Arturo and his crew. I've had many contractors work on my house; in fact this is the third time in 13 years that I've had the trim painted. Without a doubt this was the best crew of people that have ever worked on my home. They were very nice to work with and the paint job was excellent. They did everything meticulously. Completely satisfied!"

"I Hired Pro Masters to paint the exterior of my larger home in the Dacula, GA area. Christian was prompt with his quote and clear with the start times and how long the project would take. the quality of work was outstanding and his entire team were courteous, professional and show clearly that they take pride in their work. I have hired painters in the past that over promise and under deliver but this could not be further from the case with Pro Masters. My home needed a good deal of remediation and replacement of rotted wood as well as some window repairs and Pro Masters showed their aptitude at not only painting but carpentry as well! My home literally looks brand new after 17 years! The pricing was very fair for all of the remediation and painting that needed to be done. If you need to have your home painted or are looking for exterior repairs I could not recommend enough the professionals at Pro Masters."

"Eric just stained and applied sealant to my deck and porch after pressure washing them and they look great. Eric has a good eye for color and was very helpful in picking out stain colors. His years of experience show! He communicates well and no very thorough on the job - even checking in a week after the job to make sure there are no problems. From the work he's done for me, I won't hesitate to use him to do the same job on the entire house!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.
