"We hired them to build a deck; they did an awesome job. Very polite and considerate Was sure that we could get in and out of our home with a 13-year-old greyhound. They were sure that no debris was left scattered. We have actually hired them to come back and shingle our roof."

""Hire a professional painter " my Sister in law said . And it was the best decision I have ever made. I made the call and Nick was there that evening. NV'S professional painting went above and beyond everything I expected. It's clear that they have a very strong work ethic and expertise of the subject matter. They answered all of my questions before, during and after the job was done. It's amazing how a coat of fresh paint just brings your home to life. There's just not enough adjectives to describe NV'S professional painting. It all was done efficiently. Furniture was moved and covered. They care for your home as if it were there own home and personal belongings. They worked coherently like well oiled machinery. They all communicated amongst themselves and always had a plan for the day. There were other small items that needed to be addressed in the house like painting the base boards and trim that needed to be replaced. So, NV'S is not just for painting. Whatever the job may be, it's definitely done with precision and expertise. Nick stands behind his work and promises to make it right if you are not completely happy with the job in any way. I am very pleased with NV'S professional painting and will very likely ask for them to return to repair and repaint the decking.. A " heartfelt " Thank you to Nick, Jerad and Roger for a job well done. I appreciate all you've done. My home looks like a new box of crayons."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Choosing the right product involves understanding deck material, desired finish, and local weather conditions. Opt for high-quality, weatherproof formulations ensuring long-term durability and appearance retention.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

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.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.
