"My experience with Barco Electrical was superb. I had the light replaced outside of my father-in-law's house. He lives in Shreveport and I am located in Atlanta, GA. John responded immediately to my request for an estimate. The work was done when I requested and John did a great job. He kept me posted on everything that was going on and my father-in-law, who is quite difficult to please, was thrilled with the work. I will definitely use Barco Electrical in the future. Thanks to John for making this so easy and affordable!"

"We couldn't be happier with the job that Float N Coat did!!  Jason was extremely responsive to both calls and emails about various costs (additional doors, additional coats of paint, if needed, etc.) and more than forthcoming with any issues that may bump up our estimate. But the bottom line was there really was no reason to fear -- our final bill matched the estimate and there were no "hidden" or "additional" costs included when we got it. In addition, the work is absolutely beautiful! We have tons of trim, baseboards and deep set windows, and they did an amazingly accurate job with the white trim on our very dark walls. Their wall prep work (patching, sanding, etc.) was so impeccable you can not tell where the holes had been previously. They were on time, cordial and really knew what they were doing. And lastly, when they were done, the smell of fresh paint was the only thing left behind. This was a pretty big residential job, and they cleaned up so well, it was as if they were never there.
As a client, I felt included in every step of this huge project, and that is a rare feeling when working with service companies. I've recommended Float N Coat to friends already, and highly recommend them here. If you are looking for professional painters who deliver high quality work at an affordable price, you don't need to look any further.  "

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.
