"Winston replaced carpet with a gorgeous laminate floor. He removed all the previous flooring and did a great job with clean up after the project was completed. The floor looked amazing when finished! Highly recommend!"

"Excellent.  We have used Omar for years now and never have to worry about the quality of the job.  For example, with the deck, we never spoke about whether the deck would be stained or not (it never even occured to us) and so it wasn't a line item on the contract.  We received a call from Wilber when they had completed the deck asking us to please choose a stain color from the Benjamin Moore line of paint/stains for the deck.  We didn't get back to him in a few days, and awoke one morning to find the color choice booklet on our screen door to help facilitate our choice.
We'll be using Omar this Spring for exterior painting of our home, window and porch replacement and brick up-pointing.

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.
