"Clean Cut Painting applied a concrete floor coating in my garage, and I?m really impressed with the outcome. The team worked efficiently and made sure every detail was done properly. The surface looks clean, glossy, and very durable. It has completely improved the look of the space. I would definitely recommend their service to anyone considering floor coating."

"Wonderful experience with OC Construction! Wallpaper was removed quickly. Patching & painting was then performed and looks wonderful. We unfortunately had to delay the project multiple times after wallpaper removal & patching due to our project & railing replacement. OC was “extremely” understanding to say the least. They were so accommodating. Would definitely hire & work with them again. Highly recommend!!"

"I learned that Peter and his crew had extensive experience in building decks and installing hardwood. We hire him to replace our deck which was done exceptionally well. One of Peter's crew, Vaso (sp) was an experienced cabinet maker. The amount of attention paid to detail, fit and finish went far beyond anything I've seen in deck construction. I mentioned to Peter that are next project would be to replace the flooring on our first floor. Again the quality and attention to detail exceeded all expectations. Peter and his crew are easy to work with, professional and work well as a team. Peter's is onsite directing the work and ensures all is done to his satisfaction. We couldn't be happier with the work he's done for us"

"This was the BEST company I have ever hired!! Glen and his crew were on time every single day and were willing to work as late as I asked them to. They did an amazing job remodeling my entire house to get it ready to sell. I will absolutely be calling them to remodel my new home. 5 stars is not enough to give them for going above and beyond my expectations!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must. 

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.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.
