"This is the second or third time I’ve used Rich and his wife to pressure wash and paint the porches and exterior decks at my condo in Saint Simons Island. As always absolutely professional work at a reasonable cost. I would recommend Barefoot Handyman for any handyman work. Honest, great communication, and exemplary work."

Hi! My name is Devon, I am 21 years old and a soon to be father. I work full time at a paper mill and I am looking to launch my own business taking care of the residents of northeast Florida who need all different kinds of services. I specialize in junk and waste removal, but offer services such as property cleanup and management as well as exterior pressure washing and certain demolition. I appreciate any future business opportunities given to me by the great community of this state. God bless America!

""The project was top notch. Not only did they consistently show up on time, but did a great job communicating throughout the process and changes. I started out with one thing in mind but as the project progressed I asked for changes. They were eager to accommodate and worked very hard to make sure I was pleased. Final project turned out great!" I am already getting a quote for my next project!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

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.
