"I recently hired Lampman’s Painting & Pressure Washing for a painting and power washing project, and I couldn’t be more satisfied with the results. From start to finish, their professionalism and attention to detail were outstanding. Painting Services: The team transformed the interior of my home with their expert painting skills. They took great care in preparing the surfaces, ensuring a smooth and even finish. Their color recommendations were spot-on, and the quality of their work is evident in every room. They worked efficiently, kept the workspace clean, and completed the project on time. Power Washing Services: The exterior of my house looks brand new after their power washing service. They removed years of grime, mildew, and dirt from the siding, deck, and driveway. The difference is remarkable, and I appreciate the thoroughness with which they tackled the job. Customer Service: Communication was excellent throughout the entire process. The team was punctual, courteous, and respectful of my property. They provided a detailed estimate upfront and stuck to it, with no surprise charges. Overall, I highly recommend Lampman’s Painting & Pressure Washing for anyone in need of painting or power washing services.

"I hired Rushcreek to do some interior painting. There were some very small issues, i.e. replacing the bathroom mirror, shower curtain on the floor, etc., The main thing for me was that I had paid him in full. After he finished the job he billed me again for "additional work" he felt was over and above his initial bid."

"They are young and enthusiastic couple. They completed the foundation painting of my residence, garage and storage shed promptly even when I provided them with very short notice. They did a very good job and cleaned up the job site well. I'm very satisfied with job that they did and would recommend them to others."

"They came over , were polite and went to work. My walls looked so clean and the wood paneling on my entryway which hadn't been cleaned for years, looked great when they were done. They even did the inside entryway windows and the window tracks too. Living room, bathroom, kitchen and entryway walls were done within the time allotted for this job. I will be happy to have them come here again. Mary C. Doerr"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

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.

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.
