"I COULD NOT POSSIBLY BE ANY HAPPIER WITH HOW WONDERFUL THE HOUSE LOOKS! MARIO AND HIS CREW TAKE GREAT PRIDE IN DOING AN EXCELLENT JOB AND WORKED WITH ME EVERY STEP OF THE WAY TO MAKE SURE THE END RESULT WAS WHAT I WANTED. HONESTLY THE FAUX WORK MARIO DID IS EVEN BETTER THAT I HAD HOPED FOR. MARIO, ED AND JAY ARE ALL VERY PROMPT, HARD WORKERS, ALWAYS POLITE AND VERY HELPFUL WITH SUGGESTIONS. THEY ALWAYS CLEANED UP BEFORE LEAVING FOR THE DAY, AND BY STARTING IN THE FAMILY ROOM MADE SURE THAT THEY DISRUPTED OUR HOME LIFE AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE. MARIO TAKES GREAT PRIDE IN FINISHING A JOB ON TIME, AND THE ONLY REASON THEY NEEDED AN EXTRA DAY IS BECAUSE I MADE MY REQUEST TO FAUX THE FRONT HALL (IN METALLIC PAINT, IT LOOKS FANTASTIC!!) AFTER THEY HAD ALREADY STARTED TO WORK. I WILL DEFINITELY USE THEM FOR MY PAINTING NEEDS IN THE FUTURE, AND AM MORE THAN HAPPY TO RECOMMEND THEM TO ANYONE WHO WANTS ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND EXCELLENT FAUX WORK DONE."

"MQ Painting was very professional in every aspect of the work they completed for us. They power washed every surface prior to painting. All surfaces were sanded or scraped as needed. Two coats of stain we applied to all surfaces. The garage doors were stripped, stained and varnished. The deck railings were completely replaced and painted on a very large deck. Originally, Jose thought only a portion of the railing spindles needed to be replaced. As the job proceeded it was apparent that all spindles and railing wood needed to be replaced. The only additional charge was for the materials, not for labor even though every spindle needed to be individually cut from larger pieces of lumber. MQ was the only painting contractor who bid on our paint job who was willing to do all the woodwork repairs needed on the deck. Other contractors said we'd need to have someone repair the deck and then they would paint it. We appreciated working with just one contractor. Their painting and carpentry work was top notch. All workers were neat, punctual and conscientious. All materials and tools were picked up and stored at the end of every work day. I discovered MQ Painting through Angie's List. I highly recommend MQ Painting and would absolutely hire them again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

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.
