I am a Journeyman Union Carpenter by trade but after 15 years left it to pursue other things. I have had rental properties and done hundreds of property rehabs and remodels over the years. I have a working knowledge of plumbing and electrical and I take pride in my work. I also rehab and refinish antique wood furniture and build custom furniture out of old wood and recycled materials. No job is too small and I enjoy meeting all the people that this kind of work leads me too.

First Impressions is a business in the Jackson, MO area that has been in operation since 2007. Hi, I'm Kyle Litchfield, and I am the owner of First Impressions Home Improvement and Painting. I am a lifelong resident of the Cape/ Jackson area and I take great pride in every project I am given the chance to work on. I come from a long construction background and have been in the construction world for most of my life. I am knowledgeable in almost all aspects of construction and in the rare event that I don't have an answer for a customers questions or needs I have a long list of professional connections in the area that I have known for a long time to consult with depending on what the topic area is. I am also a 10 year veteran of the local fire service as a Volunteer Firefighter and EMT. I hold State Level Certifications as an EMT-B as well as Firefighter 1 and 2 levels and Hazardous Materials Certifications. I take great pride in keeping my mess as contained as possible while working on a project and I take the safety of not only myself, but also the customer and their family. I specialize in the small stuff. Unlike other businesses, I am proud to say that I do not have a service call or minimum charge for services. I have done work for folks as simple as just changing a couple of door knobs, or fixing that door that gets hard to open and close every now and again. You don't have to have a major project to need a repairman!! If you think your problem is too small for a repairman to care about, think again. Give me a call!!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can stain your wood deck over old stain, but proper preparation is the key to successful results. Begin by thoroughly cleaning the deck to remove dirt, debris, and loose or flaking old stain. Sanding or stripping may be necessary to smooth the surface and ensure proper adhesion of the new stain. Test a small area to ensure compatibility between the old and new stain. Also, choose a stain compatible with the existing stain type and color. By following these steps meticulously, you can achieve a refreshed appearance while preserving the integrity of your deck.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

Decks can either be stained or painted, depending on your preference. Typically stain is less expensive than paint, but paint offers more color options that might better match your aesthetic. No matter what you choose, both options protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear. 

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.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.
