"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."

"Andy did an excellent job of cleaning 20 years of bottom paint off the bottom of my 21 foot fiberglass boat. Paint was removed to the boot stripe and there was no damage to the glass. The work was completed in my yard which was left clean with no residue. Great job"

"For 6-years my wife has been asking me if we could sheet-rock over the "cabin-like" wood at our lake house. After hiring John, I admitted "why did I wait so long". The craftsmanship, professionalism, constant communication, price, attention to detail and ability to think of ideas to make the house look even better is beyond our wildest dreams. I have never seen my wife so excited about the outcome of John Devoe's work. For those who read this, please don't look for a 2nd or 3rd quote, just call John, you will be happy you did, your home or project will be 100xtimes better than you ever thought. I have already hired John for a second project in a few weeks. So you will have to wait until mine is done - LOL"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

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.
