"We hired Superb Painting to fix up the exterior of our house. They replaced rotten siding and trim, scraped peeling paint, and then re painted our house and trim. We worked with Tim and were impressed with how easy he was to get ahold of when needed. He came out twice (once about halfway through the job as well as on the last day of work) to walk around with us to make sure we were happy with everything. All of the workers were friendly and professional. We are very happy with the finished product! We had multiple neighbors comment that they were doing a great job and that they took down their information in case they needed siding/painting work done in the future."

"We hired S&S Custom Decks to fix and complete deck repairs and under deck water drainage issues. We hired S&S Custom Decks because the original contractor “Competitive Contracting LLC failed at the job. Joe (S&S Custom Decks) had to completely replace the surface of the deck and tear out the drainage system and replace with a new system. Joe did an excellent job. He was very professional and did a great job communicating with us. When we discovered a small issue he was out promptly to fix the problem. We are going to have this company out next summer to do another job. One of the most important thing we want when dealing with a company is “communications” between them and us. Joe did just that. I would recommend S&S Custom Decks for for their outstanding support in getting our the job done."

"Emerald Pro Painting of Omaha painted the exterior of my home. They were very professional and the customer service was excellent. The quality of the work was exceptional from the estimate to the preparation to the quality of the paint and the work they did. My home required a considerable amount of replacement and repair of siding and trim. This was also done with the utmost professionalism and care. The work was done in a timely manner and very efficiently. I would most definitely recommend them to anyone!"

"My experience with Tracy "Tray" Hollingsworth was tremendous. We hired Tray initially to do some backyard deck repairs and staining, and his quality of work and strong communications were so excellent that we hired him for some additional activities that centered on exterior painting and some handyman tasks. I look forward to working with Tray again - - he is the BEST!"

"I can’t praise Julian’s work enough. I was very pleased and look forward to having him back in the near future. He was prompt, persistent and proficient with an eye for detail while focusing on the job at hand. Watching the care he took in his painting, including removing old paint coatings, applying various finishes, including primer, sealer and two coats of high quality paint, he also took the time to obtain the desired color needed. Along with all this, his pricing was more than fair for a job well done. Also, he wouldn’t accept my check until I approved all his work. Now that’s something you don’t experience everyday. In closing, I sound like an advertisement, but I’m trying to make the point of how pleased I was with his work. Thanks again Julian. See you soon for some interior painting I need done."

"This was not the cheapest quote for a retaining wall however owner took time to fully explain the specifics of job and was able to work with us to do work timely since we were dealing with water issues. Excellent work completed and wall looks great while solving our landscape issues. They also built a platform deck for our above ground pool to allow easy pool access. Again quality work completed as promised. Owner frequently on site during construction and was available if we had questions. Would use this company again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

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.

Painting a damaged pool deck is not recommended if the substrate is crumbling, cracking, spalling, or otherwise actively deteriorating. Continuing deterioration will result in the paint also delaminating or flaking off the damaged surface. Minor damage such as chips or hairline cracks that are not actively deteriorating can often be repaired enough to paint over. A damaged pool deck with a lot of cracking and deterioration should be replaced for best results.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.
