Get matched with top deck staining pros in Darlington, MD

"Contractor did an amazing job and did great work. I highly recommend this Company. He was efficient in time to complete the job and reasonable with respect to affordability."

"Brian did an awesome job and I will definitely call him for my next job. The last person I hired to stain my deck in 2019 did a really poor job, so I asked a million questions and kept changing my mind regarding not only the stain choice, but the color. Brian was extremely patient with me and remained professional at all times. He is extremely easy to work with and will do a good job for you, the way you want it done. I highly recommend Cornerstone Hydro Wash."

"The management and staff at Spiros Painting were 100% professional from beginning to end. They responded immediately to my request for an estimate. They had someone come out to look at the project site the next day. I had called another painting company who told me that they could not provide an estimate unless I assured them that I would sign a contract within 30 days. Spiros made no such stipulation. Spiros began the work about a week after I accepted their proposal. This was partly to accommodate own my schedule; they could have started earlier. The rear wall of the house is difficult to access, but Spiros was able to deal with the situation without bringing in any special equipment. They scraped and patched the wall thoroughly. I have had experiences with painters in the past whose scraping amounted to a light rubdown. Spiros was very conscientious about removing ALL of the peeling paint. The company was patient with me when I changed my mind a couple of times before the work started, about the color I wanted. The work was finished in two days, partly because it was interrupted by rain. The company cleaned up thoroughly after the job was done. I'm very pleased with the work and the workmanship."

"This company is awesome! They painted my house inside and out flawlessly! They also installed gorgeous vinyl plank flooring and carpet. I can’t say enough about the quality of the work! Workers were great and very efficient. The only glitz was in communication and that was partially because I’m difficult to reach. Would definitely give them a high recommendation!"

"Brian and Joy are wonderful at Cornerstone! We have used them regularly on both of our homes. They are professional and provide excellent service both homes and decks are sparkling clean. Thank you so much Brian and Joy! Kind regards, Toni"

"Overall the home was powerwashed quickly and looks pretty good. I was disappointed that the back gate was left open (we have a docile Golden Retriever who thankfully does not leave the yard), and two of the potted Plumeria plants (on front of deck, not close to home) were knocked over. The area of the back of the house, within the screened porch, was not powerwashed?"

"Excellent. Crew showed up on time and used specialized nozzles and a chemical treatment to remove everything. It's spotless and the chemicals they used continue to keep things looking clean. Have already scheduled them to come out next April to do house and deck."

Working with William Mackay roofing was a great experience.  I knew from my home inspection that I needed to have a membrane sealed on my roof. I called three roofers before the winter and during early spring and every one of them was slow to get back to me, or just not very informative, would charge for the estimate, etc...

I called William Mackay based on the Angies List service reviews and I was not disappointed.  They contacted me immediately through the app.  They were available and they arrived on time.  They provided a free estimate, took photos of my roof, and shared them with me. They showed me exactly what needed to be done and they were straightforward - they did not try to sell services I didn't need.

When I inquired about scheduling, they had space on that day's schedule - they immediately called a worker in and got to work on my roof. The maintenance was completed in a few hours. They took photos of the completed work and emailed both "before" and "after" photos with an in-depth explanation  of the completed work.

Ben and Bill Mackay (sons of William) handled the job. Ben Mackay shared information on how to maintain my roof.  I'm a new homeowner and I bought a well-maintained house that is almost a century old. He shared info on the difference between newly constructed roofs and the materials used, and roofs like mine.  Bill managed the job.

I paid a fair price but more importantly, I know that I can call them and they will do a great job.  They also stand behind their work. Family owned businesses are important - they rely on word of mouth and repeat business.  Highly recommend.

"I want to start off stating that I knew this was a complicated job due to the multiple locations needing to be addressed in different manners. Anthony was very accommodating, professional, and responsible. Even when Anthony had a medical reason to not be involved in managing, he was. The overall grade, however, would be a B-. I would still use them again and recommend their use.
At first, I thought I found our handymen for the rest of our projects. I told Anthony the issues in COMPLETENESS OF WORK with other contractors, and was assured there is no problem here.
My wife and I were told that the entire job would be completed in 3 days. I expected a week, but it ended up being 2 weeks and a day.  Communication was a challenge on both my end and theirs. There were times when I talked to Anthony about specifics and details that we had agreed on, but when the working crew came, there was a misunderstanding. For example, I wanted all doors to be painted semi-gloss white. When the job was done, I noticed the doors were only painted on the front (facing the hall). I was told that is what they usually do when painting doors, but I thought it was understood that painting the door is the entire door. A misunderstanding that was solved once it was brought up. We also had some issues in cabinet painting as the doors were closed before fully drying. When opened, paint was removed. This was brought up and was grossly resolved.
Here is a summary of the work:
Hardwood flooring-Looks great but had issues with the staining of the stair nose. This was corrected. They had to do a lot of work securing the sub-floor, which I thought meant silencing creaks. One creak was fixed and the other is right at the base of my stairwell. I was told this is due to the beams in my home, but they would check. I asked later about it as I still heard the noise and didn't notice anything to suggest the wood was taken up for the problem to be checked, but was told it was inspected and is the beam...
Painting in home-Walls and ceiling are great but doors and molding look like spots were missed.
Staining/painting of banisters-We have dark on top and bottom with white spindles. We had an issue with drying time and drip spots but was ultimately resolved. Looks great. Stains from banisters were noticed elsewhere in the house like on doors.
Kitchen cabinet-there was some back and forth with this because of the peeling of paint. Even when pointed out, not all was resolved. We also agreed to the painting and install of about 2 ft of crown molding on the top of a cabinet where it was missing, but this was not done.
The quality of work was ok, as I had to point out issues that needed to be resolved, and some were not. It got to the point where my wife and I were just ready to be finished with the entire process. Overall, the grade is a B- because of this and because the work was not as thorough as I had expected. Today I even went over some things that weren't fully completed and cleaning carpet from shoe stains.
 I reached out to Anthony for another job involving the installation of a pedestal sink, and painting plus installing shoe molding and 1/2 rounds. This is the powder room I had hardwood installed also, but when the sink/vanity was removed, some of the molding and rounds were not painted or installed on the sides after being told we were acquiring a pedestal sink for the room. I wanted to use Tony Touch again because I believe they have a great rep and maybe the communication was the predominant issue with my job. And he does work with you.
I just suggest being very detailed and descriptive when getting a quote for a job, ask questions, and inspect the work.

"House looks so much better now the tough stains have been removed. They also cleaned the screens for an extra cost while they where at house. Great deal for the price.
