"Excellent! Marcus did good, quality work and kept in communication with me, including sending photos of the work he had done. He was very professional, he researched any required permits, he sent product information for the stain he was using, he arrived when stated and worked hard through some sweltering summer days. I would definitely hire him again. As a matter of fact, we are in the process of hiring him for our next project!"

"I hired them to paint the house, but they also do carpentry and they built great shelves for me and a bed, which looks awesome. They did a great job on all my projects. Also, the tile guy who I hired did a lot of rotten work and left a lot of stuff unfinished, and they finished his work for me reasonably, including stain, baseboard and quarter round. They always showed up when they said they were coming and they finished in a timely manner. Best of all, they didnâ t complain when I asked them to repaint stuff and often they didnâ t charge me for it, which is good because I change my mind a lot. Additionally, they were able to offer their opinions when I asked them about colors and ideas for building stuff. Most of all, they were pleasant, friendly and I enjoyed their company. I mustâ ve texted them a million times and called them frequently, and they always answered me and got back to me soon. All in all, a good experience!"

"Assured quality did an amazing job with remodeling my home. The original work in the home was terrible from the paint to the trim. Assured quality made sure I noticed the difference and was so detail oriented! I will be sure to call Juan again if I ever need any further renovations done in my house!"

"Mr. Davis came when we agreed.
He did the work two days later.
His brother Matt met with me and explained everything.
They are very honest and straight guys.
I am planning on using them again in a couple of weeks.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.
