"Perfect! They did a wonderful job! We received an immediate response to our request for help, a very fair quote and they came right away and stained our whole house in less than two days. The work was expertly done, they cleaned up afterwards and the whole crew was very polite. We will hire them again in a heartbeat."

"Bob reached out to me to discuss the painting project I had in mind. He listened well and offered his thoughts in exchange. Bob is very amiable and easy to converse with and seemed as excited as me to work on the project. I did not hire any painters from the list provided to me due to budget constraints. Bob would have been my first choice because if his friendliness and his bid was the lowest offered and the most detailed."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

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.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

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.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.
