"Mr Mendez has done countless projects in my house including interior painting and limewashing, chandelier and pendant light installation, wood panel building and installation, closet remodeling, exterior painting and deck staining, and more. He and Jose are always professional and timely. They are persistent in getting the job done right and every project they have completed in my house has been done at a high quality level. There is a reason I have gone back to them for numerous projects and recommend them to anyone in need of their own home projects. Highly recommend!"

"Ben originally came out to do the roof inspection and general maintenance.  He and his brothers were extremely knowledgeable and took the time to show me the roof (yes I went up on the roof with them) while explaining the various types of roof installs and where issues can arise.  After the inspection Ben made a couple of recommendation for things to do:  1) apply a reflective coating, and 2) replace the back gutter since it was the older style and was starting to come away from the roof.  We agreed on a date and they were able to come back in a very quick turnaround and perform the needed work.  The job was done very quickly and professionally and afterwards Ben took pictures to show me the completed gutter installation and reflective coating application.  He again took the time to answer any of my questions and provide great detail as to how to prolong the life of my roof.  I was extremely happy with the work that was performed, the knowledge that they have, and the level of professionalism that was displayed.  I would highly recommend them for any roof work and I will use them in the future whenever the need arises.

"I finally found a company to paint my colonial 2 story (house was built in the 1960’s)! Technically, it’s cedar shake wood shingles on the front and asbestos shingles on the back and sides. Dependable Painting Services did a quality job over the span of two and a half days. They did all the prep work (washing, scraping and sanding prior to applying two coats). They cleaned up afterwards and left no mess in the yard. Beautiful work, Jaime is an absolute professional and I highly recommend him."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

The best temperature to paint a pool deck is between 50 and 90 degrees Fahrenheit, because many paints and sealers require temperatures warm enough for the chemical reaction to take place for proper curing. The paint should not be allowed to freeze, and temperatures above 90 degrees can cause the paint to dry too quickly, also preventing the chemical reaction from following through to completion.

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.
