I wish I needed every room in my house painted as Beau would be doing every one of them.  He was able to come look at the area needing painting within a couple days of calling him.  He contacted me shortly thereafter with a great bid that included the cost of the paint.  It was less than half of what someone else had quoted.  I was not on a tight timeline, but needed it done before mid-June.  He was one of many contractors I was coordinating for a basement facelift.  He had a couple home exteriors he was working on but said he could fit me in on a rainy day.  I had some prep work to do before he came and needed to pick out a color.  I started on that when the weather forecast looked like a rain day was coming.  He sent me a nice e-mail on a Wednesday and asked when I would be ready for him, but said don't feel rushed.  I told him I was forecasting a rain day on that Friday and had finished my prep work and would know the paint color on Thursday and I would text him that morning.  I texted him Thursday, he got the paint ordered and said he would see me Friday morning. 

I had removed all my baseboards as they had paint flecks from the prior homeowner and I wanted to get them cleaned up.  As I was working on that in the garage, while he was painting, he gave me a suggestion of how to make it a little easier (warm soapy water in a spray bottle, spray it on, let it sit for a short bit and then use a scrubby sponge to get it off - I used a Dobie).  For the top edges that had more solid paint on them he said I could borrow his sander to sand that off and I'd only have to stain the top edge.  The whole project went a lot easier than I expected with the great suggestions from Beau and by letting me use his sander.

He and his worker Tanner finished the whole job in less than 5 hours and it looked phenomenal.  It was a boring neutral wall basement and it now was a gorgeous blue gray color (Ocean Storms - Diamond Vogel) that looks different in the different lights (natural vs ceiling, etc.).  It turned out better than I imagined.

I had read a comment somewhere about his trim work.  I looked closely where the ceiling and walls met and along the door frames and there was not a speck of paint anywhere and he doesn't even tape.  I told him how amazed I was at how well that looked.  I even pointed it out to my boyfriend when he got home and he felt the same as I did that Beau does great work and is a true artist.

They also used a garden hose out back to wash out their pans.  I had it strewn on the patio from my last use so I hooked it up for them.  I go outside today to use it and they had neatly coiled it up underneath the water spigot.  I turned to my boyfriend and said "look what Beau and Tanner did".  I just shook my head and got a smile on my face as it was totally unexpected.  They could have left it just as I had...a mangled mess on the patio....but they put it back the neatest it will look all summer.

Beau definitely takes pride in his work!!!!  He and Tanner did a great job.  I felt like he was family and that I had known him a long time.  Not just a paint contractor that I met that day.  It takes a special personality to have that trait and Beau and Tanner definitely have it.

He and I also talked about him power washing my deck and re-staining it as it is long overdue.  I have a pergola built into one corner so it's not a simple open deck.  He's going to do that for me this summer when he has time in his schedule as I told him I was not in a hurry.  I can't wait to see how great that is going to look when he's done.

I highly recommend Beau to everyone.  If I ever need him again for painting and he's busy, I would wait.  He is truly that good!!!

Deck Maintenance questions, answered by experts

You can nail or screw composite decking, but 3-inch decking screws are the better fastener choice. Unlike nails, decking screws won’t back out of the composite material over time. There’s also little danger of splitting composite material when driving screws, so you don’t need to pre-drill holes unless otherwise recommended by your decking manufacturer.

Pressure-treated decks last 15 to 20 years on average, but with proper maintenance, you could get 40 to 50 years of value from yours. Reseal your deck every one to two years, and replace old or rotted wood as soon as possible to avoid structural damage. Where you live plays a role in the lifespan of your deck. Intense sunlight, rainfall, wind, and hail can reduce the deck’s lifespan.

Cold temperatures can make your deck boards contract. If they don’t contract evenly, they can put pressure on the deck screws and cause them to pop out, making a noticeable sound. Winterizing your deck can help prevent this from happening.

Because adding a deck will yield a higher property value, you may have higher insurance costs. It’s important to follow the codes and regulations set by your local and state governments, so your insurance rates can be properly calculated. You may need an insurance revaluation after your deck is completed. The best course of action is to speak with an insurance professional to understand how adding a deck will impact your home’s insurance costs before you begin.

Although composite decking is extremely durable, it’s also susceptible to extreme heat. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can cause fading, warping, and cracking. Composite also retains heat more than wood, which makes it dangerous to walk on in the summer. You can help prevent heat damage by only building with composite in shaded areas or using rugs to cover the hottest spots.
