"Our family contracted Everstone to remodel multiple rooms after a tree fell on our home. Their team remodeled a bathroom, a bedroom, kitchen and replaced flooring in several rooms. They also painted the rooms. They were professional and did a thorough job. I have recommended them to friends and other family members and plan to hire them for any future needs."

"A job that in past took the painters I hired a week or less to complete took Mr Soto’s crew almost a month. The first week was pretty much due to bad weather. The following weeks they did not show up everyday but I guess this was more than likely due to probably having multiple jobs going on. I still think the job could have been completed and done well in a lot less time. If ever having to have work done again in the future I’ll be sure to get a “timeline” written into the contract. On a very positive note, their work was good. Had to point out a few things fir them to address but Mr. Soto always made it right. They always cleaned up around the work area before leaving for the day. My home looks great. Patty McMurry"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

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.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint.
