"MD Pro Wash did an excellent job of power washing my deck. They were accommodating, prompt, neat and careful. Best of all, they paid special attention to a LIGHT wash on my CEDAR DECK with the proper equipment. Definitely would recommend!"

"This past September I had a small incident in my upstairs bathroom and my toilet overfilled and dumped water all over the floor. Since my tile is was laid all the way back in the 90s I've had quite a few cracks on them, through which water sipped through by the time I got to it. Few days later I noticed that the drywall over the kitchen table ceiling began to bulk and a large yellow stain appeared. Since I knew that I did not have an active leak I figured I need to reach out to a painting company to address the area. I contacted LHI Painting and a very nice young man came out to look at the area. I thought that maybe the job would be too small for them if I only wanted the ceiling repaired so I asked to give me a quote on reprinting the walls in the room as well. The nice man actually tried to talk me out of reprinting the walls since they were worked on only several years ago and as I mentioned to him I was retired. He also mentioned that I will be receiving a 15% senior citizen discount at the end of the project which was very nice of him to mention. After getting a quote, the number I was given was low enough for me to proceed with doing the repairs and refreshing the walls. The gentleman that came out to do the project was also very pleasant and polite. He completed the project to a perfection and made perfect cuts which my last painting company did not do a very good job at. This is a great company that cares about senior citizens and does what they can to those who need it. Chivalry is existent in this company and I wish them many more years of success."

"After watching Cowboy Painting meticulously update the exterior of a home across the street we hired them to paint the exterior of our home to include two large decks. From the first meeting, Sam and Calla were committed to answering our questions, helping us choose the PERFECT color for both the home and decks, and the utmost care and respect for our property. Both Sam and Calla were onsite every day and allowed enough time for set up and clean up while still putting at least 8-10 hours of painting. The covered the appropriate surfaces of the home and gardens/grounds to protect them and cleaned up the property EVERY day prior to leaving. Sam and Calla were pet/kid friendly and working around a brand new puppy who needed to go out frequently and young kids who asked many questions. They use the highest quality Sherwin Williams products to ensure that their craftsmanship lasts. If you are looking for an honest, owner-operated, HARD-WORKING company to paint your home, choose Cowboy Painting!! They will work to ensure you LOVE what they have done to transform your home."

"He did a real good job of cleaning up. He has a helper and he always works with him. He does not put him on the job and come back and check later. He did a good job and he was supposed to give me an estimate on repairing of the wall. He was honest and hardworking and that is why i went with me. I am concerned about matching colors on my roof and he paid details to that. My brother said however they had not fill up a couple of ports on the roof. He thought they over looked it other than that he did a good job."

"Painters arrived exactly on time and accomplished all tasks the same day. The manually stripped the deck and applied two coats of stain. They carefully cleaned and then painted the foundation concrete as it had got dirty over the years. They also scraped, caulked and painted a large bump-out window off our living room.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.
