"LMJ owner Luis Jimenez was first class. Competent, knowledgeable and lived up to every inch of our agreement. He installed a 20x20 concrete slab and it turned out exactly as I had hoped. On top of it, his crew was awesome. They were polite and went the extra mile to make sure I was satisfied. Ontime dependable work."

"Let me tell you about this guy right here. We had just bought our house and my husband was deployed. I was still living in Virginia Beach at the time and would drive back and forth to get the house in order. I found Steve On home advisor and felt comfortable with him right off the bat. I could not get my colors right and he picked up on the direction I was trying to go in and picked my color without me even being present! He sent me pictures and talked to me consistently when I was out of town and I totally put my trust in him. When I got home I was more than surprised and very very happy with the color on the walls! It was exactly what I wanted! Steve is just an all-around awesome person and I would definitely call him before I call anyone else. He has a great listening ear and picked up what I wanted very quickly. Very friendly, pays attention to detail, affordable, and is very trustworthy! I even gave his information to my realtor to give to her clients. I stand behind Steve and his work 100%!!! Will hire again in the near future!"

"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."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Oxygen bleach uses hydrogen peroxide as a base and won’t harm wood when using it as a cleaner. On the other hand, chlorine bleach breaks down wood at the cellular level and causes irreversible harm. Although you may not see immediate damage to wood after exposing it to chlorine bleach, its strength and integrity are now compromised.

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.
