"Ryan responded promptly and came to give me an estimate. He saw boards that needed to be changed and a Rubbermaid shed that needed to be moved to get to the fence. He was able to power wash the fence and come back the next day and did a great job! Thank you Ryan!"

"All Shades epoxied my garage and shed, both of which look amazing! They not only laid the epoxy and clear coat, but also color-matched the flakes to complement the exterior of the home. These guys are incredible and I would recommend them to anyone!"

"Ben did an excellent job painting my cabinets that were melamine where other painters said was not possible. The cabinets look excellent! He communicated well and made sure to touch up a couple of spots the next week. He also helped install hardware which was greatly appreciated. I was unsure of which color to get and he helped me get exactly what I wanted. I would recommend this company to friends and family and would return for more work. A+"

"Matt was wonderful!!! He and his crew were fast, friendly and efficient. Not only painted the exterior of our entire home but our shop as well. Finished in a very timely manner. He even recommended some colors that turned out really great with our existing brick work. It's like a whole new home! Will definitely be utilizing Simons again!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

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.
