"They did a fine job. The company is efficient, arrives on schedule, does very good work and communicates quickly if there are any issues. I was completely satisfied with the job they did. I had them paint the interior of an entire home, including patching numerous holes. It looked like a new home when they were finished."

"Have worked with many contractors in the past and it was a pleasure to find someone like Nate. I found Nate to be very honest, someone I could work with, very reliable, pleasant to interact with, and made sure all the work was completed well. I also found that his pricing was very competitive. In addition, he was a very pleasant to interact with. If you are looking for any painting inside or out, you should definitely consider getting a bid from Nate. Finding a reliable contractor is a rarity now a days, with Nate, you will be very happy with his service for the quality of work and the price. I plan to hire him for other work in the future."

"We are disappointed with our experience with this company. Parts of the job were done well, however the owner was not receptive and argumentative when we expressed that he left a mess and rushed parts of the job. There were paint splatters all over our brand new driveway and deck and they painted over dirt on the foundation (not part of the contract at all). Wouldn?t work with them again."

"These guys did a great job on my big old house. Had them replace a some rotted wood siding and paint the entire thing. A 130 year old house is never gonna look brand new, but it looks 10000000x better than it did before. Would definitely recommend them."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

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

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
