"This is the second time I’ve hired Proud Work Ethics in the past 6 months to do painting for me. The first project in the fall was the interior of our garage, and refinishing our deck. The work they performed was so outstanding, that it was easy to hire them back to paint our master bedroom. Professional, courteous, prompt, clean, honest, reasonable and hard working. What more could you ask for in a contractor? Would not hesitate to hire them again, or to recommend their services to anyone in need of a painter."

"Tito and sons went above and beyond to make my replacement deck completely restored. They showed up on time and stayed late to make sure all was completely done and to my satisfaction. I love my new deck and will spend many days enjoying it. The entire team was very professional."

"I recently had my house power washed and the gutters cleaned, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. They were extremely polite, professional, and took great care throughout the entire job. They kept me informed every step of the way, explaining what they were doing and making sure everything was done with attention to detail. They were also very respectful of my property. I would definitely hire them again and highly recommend their services."

"This company was terrific. They were very courteous, on time, efficient thorough and incredibly energetic. They did a great job on a large duplex with LOTS of mold and mess and the place looks like new. They also exceeded the requirements by power washing my fences, block along the driveway and even did the outside furniture! A couple of neighbors stopped by to admire their work and enquire as to their availability. They deserve a VERY high rating, You will be pleased. :-)"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

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. 

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.
