"This was the second time I used R & L and I was very pleased with the process and outcome both times. Moved everything off the deck prior to pressure washing. Came back the next day to replace 5 rotted boards. Returned the third day to apply two coats of stain. Came back a final time to put furniture back on deck."

"We could not have been happier. Jose and Evelyn and their crew of Nelson and Jose were professional beyond belief. We have had the interior of our house painted several times before, but never have we had such a through job done. From the first visit to get an estimate to the end of the painting, Jose was helpful, always willing to go an extra mile, and followed through with what he promised - a great job -- and even more. The prep work before the painting was done was superior. Cracks that we didn't even noticed were repaired in a way that left no tell tale marks. The crew was neat and very detailed oriented. The painting was exceptionally well done, and Jose's suggestion as to the brands of paint to use was very helpful. When we told him we would be getting new carpeting in two of the bedrooms which didn't have carpet, he shaved the bottoms of the doors. He even said that he would come back and touch up any trim that was chipped when the carpets came in. We have already recommended his services to others in our community. We will be using him ourselves for additional work that we need done in our home. Kudos to Jose, Evelyn, Nelson and Jose."

"They did a fantastic job on my large 2 level deck! They were very careful not to get stain on the patio underneath or the new siding on the house! We were so pleased with their professionalism and attention to detail that we also had them pain the entire main level of our house, walls and ceiling. Again, a beautiful, careful and professional job from prep to finishing touches! They also removed a decorative column that has plagued me for years and you would never know it was there now. I plan to hire them again for future jobs in our home. Excellent!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.

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.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
