"I hired Perfectos to clean out and organize my garage. I had lots of boxes I needed broken down and furniture I needed hauled out. They arrived on time and got it all done in a few hours. I am super impressed with their work and would recommend them to anyone needing help with cleaning or projects around the house."

"I have two cabins and two garages and two wood sheds an outhouse and porches on each cabin. He pressure washed everything, the porches he had to pressure wash three times. They were pretty dirty. He then masked the windows, rock and doors. Most of the painting was by brush. Some was sprayed. His work has added years to our property. I highly recommend hiring this man to paint your property."

"Cob it, Busy Bee was initially hired to do exterior surface preparation, and re-staining of my log home, garage and playhouse. They were very reliable, and made extra trips back and forth from their home base which is three hours away to make sure things ran smoothly at the job site. While at this jobsite with all their equipment and materials, Bill offered to prep and stain my fence, a picnic table, a porch swing and a porch bench at no extra charge. The project was finished last Spring of 2016 and he returned back the next Spring of 2017 just to make sure that I was completely satisfied as well as re-inspecting their work."

"My new house was painted a dirty greige (grey + beige) throughout. It felt like a cave! I needed my ceilings painted white ASAP and Kevin Fournier and his crew did such a great job! They were professional and thorough. They painted every ceiling on the main floor in two days. I am super happy with their work and would definitely recommend and hire them again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.
