"Great. Left a text which was replied to withing the hour. Glenn provided an on the spot estimate followed by a written proposal the next day. Once we were ready for painting he was notified on a Friday and on Monday he and Augustin showed up early and completed the job by Tuesday evening. Very polite, careful, flexible and even touched up some walls/doors not included in estimate."

"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

"After contracting with Smith's Quality painting to pressure wash my house. There was no delay in providing me with an estimate and a date for the work to be completed. On June 14, 2017, Mr Smith arrived on time and began to pressure wash my house. I had several questions about the material being used and he answered all my inquiries to my satisfaction. Upon completion of the work, I was extremely satisfied. He made sure all debris were removed . I inquired about about some future painting and deck work, which I will certainly consider Smith's Quality Painting to do the work. I was impressed with Smith's Quality painting professional approach to the job."

"First things first Allen farmer is a man of his word. If he says he will do something it is done and done with high quality. I scheduled my vacation around some work that was needed to my home as he rescheduled his schedule to accomidate me. His crew was top notch and I was very impressed with their professionalism down to his laborers.
They came in and stripped my roof down to the plywood and put on the exact products and brands I asked for. They were hit with some unplanned bad weather and put every member of his team to work to cover my roof so that we didn't get any water in the house in which I was amazed. The next day they were their first thing to make sure they finished the roof.
They then began work on my deck that was built not so great by a different contractor and made it more stable and added some vinyl soffit and wrapped the sides with metal. I was so happy with the finished product.
Then they tore out our old bay window and added us a 6ft sliding glass door which is so beautiful. They cleaned up all the trash, nails, scraps and left the yard looking as when they arrived.
After Mr. Farmer was paid in full he overheard me talking about some repairs that my dad needed on his roof and stopped by there and fixed him up at no charge because he is retired and doesnt have spare money for repairs which completely made our day.
I would highly recommed anyone who needs any work done please call Mr. Farmer and he will bring your dreams to life and give you what you need stress free.
To Mr. Farmer thank you for everything and if there are anymore projects we need done to our home you will be the only contractor that I will save your number in my phone as I wont need anyone elses. Keep up the good work and tell your crew thank you!!!

"Everything went extremely well. The team was professional, punctual and caring of all of my belongings. Since I have high ceilings they needed to put up scaffolding to complete the work. And the fixtures were so difficult to reach that they cleaned them and put them back without my need to do anything to them. They had detailed work to do in my kitchen cabinets. They were an excellent team and I could not have asked for a more professional bunch of guys to do my work."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

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. 

If you have a smooth, already bonded concrete surface, painting a concrete pool deck can be a great way to brighten up the area and add longevity. If the surface has another covering or a different type of paint has been used previously, you won’t be able to paint it without removing the existing coating. Wooden decks benefit from painting as it helps to keep them watertight. Quality pool deck paints also help make the surface less slippery and less likely to gather mold and mildew or prematurely crack.
