"We had removed wallpaper in our high ceiling hallway. Ken and his crew had to replaster and paint the entire hallway. His crew covered the carpet and taped off the woodwork and sealed the area. They did a fantastic job. We would be happy to have them back. We would recommend them."

"Derek, the owner, was outstanding. I could not have asked for a better experience. He provided the best crew to work on my home. They were on time, meticulous, and extremely clean. I did end up asking for additional work to be done and Derek was more than accommodating. I would hire this company again and again. Thank you Derek, Gilberto, Mike & Arti!"

Customers say: Quick response

"Our journey with Darren began on Jan 27, 25 when we reached out for a kitchen remodel quote. After meeting several contractors, Darren stood out—especially when he said, “I want to get a 5-star rating from my clients.” That sincerity won us over. The project started with the kitchen and living room, but soon expanded to remodeling our entire first floor—new cabinets, tearing down a wall, relocating gas, installing appliances, redoing the powder room, and more. Darren and Steve make a fantastic team. They were professional, detail-oriented, and always communicated clearly. Darren’s persistence to get things just right was impressive. Friends who visited commented on the great finishing touches. That alone made us feel it was all worth it. We had a wonderful experience and would highly recommend Darren to anyone looking to remodel their kitchen or pat of their home. Thank you, Darren and Steve, for bringing our vision to life!

"The exterior of our house was in terrible shape because the last people who stained it did such a bad job. Bee Painting spent a ton of time in the "prep" phase: power washing, sanding, patching, etc. (they even picked up all the paint chips). They replaced some rotting wood and even removed old/unused intercom panels and patched-in new cedar where they had been. Two coats of primer and one coat of stain and the house looks amazing! Bee Painting did a great job and we will use them again for sure."

"Frank's crew has done a variety of tasks for us: ceiling painting, checking plumbing, redoing our front porch, fixing light fixtures and wiring, installing sensors in garage and front porch, and replacing our front door and storm door. Salvador and Manuel work well as a team; they are both hard workers. They are friendly and willing to answer our questions as well as ask us about our preferences. We wouldn't hesitate to hire them again for our contracting needs."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

You should seal your deck every one to two years, but you’ll also need to clean and repair your wood deck throughout the seasons. You may want to hire a local house cleaning service to sweep and clean the deck thoroughly. These cleaning services cost around $50 per hour.

Inspect your deck at least once a year, and if you notice any damage or rot, expect to spend about $10 to $50 for simple DIY fixes or about $2,000 for professional repairs on more extensive damage.

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

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.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
