"Quality and Integrity work you can rely on!" Hello My name is Boaz Mendenhall I am the Owner of Mendenhall Enterprise L.L.C. I have been serving North West Montana for 14 years now. Specializing in custom builds and designs. Most of the jobs are specifically done by me to insure the best quality from start to finish. When I need help, or If a job is too big and needs to be done in a timely fashion. I call a great selection of sub-contractors who I have known over the years and who are greatly qualified to do the job at hand. Small jobs require payment at the end of the job, and longer ones is usually divided into 3rds. Materials required for the job will have a 15% mark-up for handling. There is a minimum charge fee on smaller jobs or services.

"Boaz and his crew are outstanding! I’ve hired them for multiple projects, and they consistently arrive on time and deliver excellent results. They are always polite, professional, and friendly, and the quality of their work is top-notch. I’ve never had a single issue, and I will definitely be calling them again for my next project. Highly recommend Mendenhall Enterprise!"

A full service Painting Contractor, we provide professional residential, commercial, interior and exterior painting. New construction, remodels, condition and restore exterior wood siding, exceptional stain and clear finishes on doors and millwork. Prompt service and quality work guaranteed.

"The work provided by Tschida Painting is thorough and complete. All of my concerns were addressed with knowledge and confidence. He kept me informed about day to day activity, time-frame, details about the condition of my house and answered all of my questions with past experience. Friendly conversation that helped me learn about his work all along the way. After listening to his quote for the job and walking around the property I felt confident in hiring his service. He is able to point out problems and areas that need work prior to paint application to protect my investment and keep him moving forward. This was my first time having my exterior house painted. I would quickly hire Clint again. Nice guy, hard worker and exceeded my expectations. Interior painting rates for work during the winter were offered as well."

"Mike Hagen (and all of his crew) are hands down the BEST contractors to work with. Mike is such a down to earth guy, and was so accommodating to build our house the way we wanted it! Even after the house was finished, he has been so responsive in coming to help us figure out the quirks of it all. I HIGHLY recommend him! The next home we build will definitely be a Hagen Construction house!"

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 best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.
