"I was so impressed with the quality of Mr. Valle’s work that we asked him to come back! Mr. Valle was a pleasure to work with. When he showed up on the first day, his attention to all the small details was surprising to say the least. His work materials were well-organized, and his work left no mess for us to clean up afterwards, unlike many other contractors. The finished product is outstanding. I plan on having him continue to assist us with our old home soon. Overall, you will not be sorry you hired Mr. Valle. His Angi’s listing sells himself short as he is so much more than a Painter. We had him recreate an antique window casing from scraps of mouldings we had salvaged from other areas of our home. The finished product is outstanding and looks original in every detail. He is genuinely a Craftsman in every sense of the word. You will not be sorry you hired Mr. Valle! I will share his name and number far and wide, as workmen like this are rare these days."

"Robert and his crew worked their magic and turned a large closet into a beautiful functional half bath. They were professional, respectful of my home, communicated with me easily, arrived on time daily, cleaned up every day. I could not be happier with this contractor. I have already passed his name on to my daughter for work she want done in her house"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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. 

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

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.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.
