"L&B Services did a tear down and rebuild of an old deck. They really know how to build a solid deck with poured cement footings, sauna tubes, and sturdy lumber. Bob was very good at keeping us informed of the work to be done and the timeline. The deck was done on time. It is a large deck (30x12) with 3 sets of stairs, dog gates, and skirting. The end result was a sturdy deck that will last for decades. Very easy and personable group to work with."

"We hired Rein Green Painting to repair and paint the exterior of a seasonal cottage in addition to replacing and sealing the lattice work at the base of the house - they've been very pleasant to work with and quite responsive - jumping on the project and completing it quickly - and they've done a great job, I recommend."

"We are very happy with the work A & B Painting completed on our house... Brian was a great communicator throughout the process. We were particularly impressed by the time spent on getting just the right paint and stain matches for the job. Brian and Joe completed the work on schedule and left our house looking brand new!"

"HIRE THIS COMPANY! You won't be disappointed. Nick came into our newly purchased farmhouse that had a completely botched interior paint job. We had him paint the entire interior and most of the trip. In just a few days, it was turned it into a completely different and awesome home. He and Joe were diligent, clean, polite, friendly, professional and most of all, knew what they were doing and took pride in excellent results. And the price was right! We will call Nick again when we redo the barn. Great experience!!"

"It was amazing. Andy was super friendly, prompt and efficient. The materials he uses are eco-friendly which I really liked. I never would have imagined how nice the wood under the paint was if it weren't for him so I was very happy with the work."

"After researching for larger replacement windows we decided to go with All Pro Services of Augusta. We appreciate how at ease they was to talk to and the estimate of the new windows. Plus my dog took to them immediately. They was thorough, courtesy and performed professionally. Excellent team that kept us informed throughout the job and answering any questions we had. They cleaned up all the debris and the windows look great!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.

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. 

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.
