"Gabe and his crew did an absolutely PERFECT job re-staining and painting the exterior of our home overlooking Crystal Lake. We are SO happy with their work! 1. Gabe was great with communication from the beginning with the bid through the completion of the job. He and his crew were a pleasure to work with. 2. The attention to detail was AMAZING! Our home has cedar shingles and lots of trim, and every shingle and edge looks perfect. 3. Everything about the job was very organized. Everything was cleaned up beautifully every evening. They even made sure the baby gate was back in place that keeps my pup from leaving the deck! Thank you Gabe, Dustin, and Angelo for making our home look new again! We highly recommend Definitive Paint and Design and look forward to having them do our projects in the future!"

"Adam's painting coated my ceilings, including the cathedral ceiling, and stairways. They look brand new. The crew carefully moved everything. Covered what could not be moved. Even vacuumed before they put all the furniture back. Chris is very easy to work with. He even made recommendations to save me money. The crew is very pleasant, really hard working. And all for a good price. I don't know what else you could ask for."

"Matt was excellent. He promptly responded to my request for an estimate. He planned when the job would be scheduled. His team arrived as scheduled completed all of the work to my satisfaction and left the area spotless. Matt himself ever returned to perform some touch ups that I did not even notice. High Impact was a pleasure to work with and WILL be my first and only call the next time our log home needs to be re-stained."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

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.
