Q: Should I stain my deck with a brush or rag?

• <div><p>Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.</p></div>

Q: What tools and materials are needed for deck painting or staining?

• <div><p>Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.</p></div>

Q: What is the best paint to not show dirt on a deck?

• <div><p>If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn&rsquo;t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.</p></div>

Q: Does wood stain go bad?

• <div><p>Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years. </p></div>

Q: How do specialists ensure the longevity of deck repairs?

• <div><p>By applying protective finishes and using durable materials that withstand weather and time.</p></div>

Clyde’s did a horrible job on my roof and gutters, did not complete the job, did not meet their contract, and have never called me back. They are also NOT BBB certified. I do not recommend any of their services. I signed a contract with Clyde’s on 6/9/2023 to have my gutters and roof replaced....

They showed up when they said they would and listened to my changes during the building of my decks. They gave an honest estimate and did the job correctly and right on budget

Great. Nuwood Works stained our cabin and deck a short time ago. Great quality work done in a timely manner. I just had them stain our recently completed utility building as well. I highly recommend them.

Tim and his team removed three trees from my backyard. I was amazed at how tidy they left the yard and my deck. I would use this company again, and recommend them.

Very nice guy. But job was not completed. Miscalculated the required materials needed to finish the job correctly. We were then told it would cost more to complete to our satisfaction. We offered to pay for more materials, but were told that labor would be even more. In the end our deck was...

Jerry is a very nice guy. He seems to really like what he does, but the quality of the work is where things go down hill. The job was supposed to take 4 to 5 days. He and his guys (both are son in-laws from what I recall) would show up on time but always be in a hurry to leave by 2 or 3pm....

We recently bought our home, and the home inspector completely missed that the roof was in utter disrepair. We literally had a leak not 8 hours after closing. We took several bids for a new roof from different roofing companies. After speaking with Jack, the owner I was sold on Carlon. He is the...

WORST Inspection EVER!!! The guy literally told us (in front of the homeowners) that there were only three things that he found. A window in the garage (we'd likely never use) needed the spring fixed to ensure it stayed open, the hand rail on the deck was too big to consider "graspable", and the...

The company rescheduled me once from original date and time. The guys arrived on time and seemed professional. They cleaned the air ducts and outside the AC unit. I sat on my deck during the time they were working. When they left they assured me everything was working fine. Later I discovered...
