"I hired Mr. Hutcheson for painting and staining the exterior cedar siding of my home. He was not only extremely well priced but very diligent in making sure he did a great job for my family. House turned out amazing! Definitely plan on recommending him to clients of mine and friends. I certainly plan on using him again for projects in the future."

"The manager of the business came to our home to view places where we wanted corrections to be made. He surveyed the areas to be painted', took a small sample of the painted areas to do a color match and then gave us a quote for the total job. A date was agreed upon to perform the work. He returned on the arranged date on time with the necessary materials and performed the job to our satisfaction. We will use this company again for any future painting jobs we have to be done."

"This company does great work. Got my shower and vanity remodeled. There were some complications with both the vanities and the shower but the crew adjusted to it and made everything work out. Cost me a little more because of it but that is the nature of it sometimes. Overall I am very pleased with the outcome."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

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.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.
