"Daniel did an excellent job. First he was one of the first people to respond to my request. He came over provided me with quote a few days later decided on him and he was out the next day to do power washing. My house had not been painted in 30 years. So the power washing revealed issues of rot and other things not found in the first estimate. He worked with me to find a solution. For instance I had rot along the bottom. This would cost a lot to remove trim and replace all the panel siding. He came up with the solution of a skirt that covered the problem and actually looks good. He and is crew were quick about it and got the job done in 3 days. I liked him so much I have hired him to fix and repair and outside shed."

"We hired Dustin and his crew to patch up a few spots and give us a clean, fresh paint job in our living room, dining room, entry, and hallway. They were always on time, cleaned up after themselves, and did a really nice job. We were very pleased with them and would use them again in a heartbeat!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

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.
