"We hired HandyMack to repair, paint and seal our porch, pressure washes the house, and clean the gutters and downspouts. I contacted HandyMack on a Thursday and spoke to Juri Rubio, Macks spouse. We set an appointment for an estimate for the next Monday. They showed up when they said they would and we discussed the project. I received an emailed estimate that night. We agreed to the to estimate and set a time for Mack to start the project. He showed up timely with everything he would need. Over the course of four days, all the work was completed and on budget!! We have a small front and lower porch and an average size back deck. He cleaned and repaired all three, making sure they were safe. I chose the color and he did an absolutely fantastic job painting and sealing the porches and decks with excellent quality paint and sealant. I am so thrilled with how the work turned out and have already spoken to Juri and Mack about other projects for the future. Payment: HandyMack accepts cash and check. That is fine with us, we were happy to save what we needed and pay for it! Work Ethic: What can I say, that man is a perfectionist. He will do the job correctly and will not stop until it is. He is honest and dependable with a cheerful disposition. As I said, he was here when he said he would be here, he cleaned up everything and when he left, it was as if he was never here...except for our now beautiful porches. Would I use again: again and again and again!!! Come back, Mack and Juri!! You are the only ones we want to work on our home :)"

"Excellent! We first hired Jamie to do a new shower in our master bath. His work was so good that we then hired him to remodel the upstairs and replace all carpet with hardwood flooring. This involved some complicated problem solving for difficult transitions, which he did a great job of. It looks beautiful! Then he did an exterior job, to replace damaged siding. Jamie is smart and detail-oriented, so he makes sure every bit of the job is perfect. Would hire him again for any size projects."

"Aaron and Greg sent their top-tier crew to my home to completely rebuild my deck, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. They did a wonderful job, paying close attention to detail and maintaining a high level of professionalism throughout the project. Aaron managed everything from start to finish, keeping me informed every step of the way and making the process smooth and stress-free. I was especially impressed that the crew was able to complete the entire deck in just one day without sacrificing quality. The finished deck looks amazing, and I highly recommend them to anyone looking for reliable, skilled, and efficient contractors."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

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.

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.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface.
