"Tony is a great communicator. His response time was quick to all the questions I had. We wanted casings painted and wanted them to match the same brand of paint, its color, and texture. He said it that was doable. Him and his partner showed up on time, stayed busy working the entire time, and finished multiple window casings. One masked and the other painted behind them. They cleaned up nicely, vacuumed the floor for us, and left our home in pre-project condition (i.e. clean). There was a couple touch ups the next day because the wood absorbed paint on some edges. Tony came back right away, touched them up, and even spent the extra time to review and touchup to his level. I didn't see certain things, but his professional care did. I liked the extra attention to detail and initiation for wanting to check all the windows agian and not just the ones I noticed. Would happily hire them again for any painting needs I have in the future. Thank you so much!"

"We hired another company to paint our inside and that did not work out. We got a estimate from Jay and went forward with him fixing our home. They also gave us a estimate for the kitchen cabinets. They finished both in a week and I am so so happy with the kitchen cabinets and the interior!! Thank you so much!!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.

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.

Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.
