"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."

"They painted my whole house and stained my wood beams and when all was said and done it almost looks like I have a new home. The supervisor of our project Mike was so helpful and Emilio was in the loop the whole time. Even my neighbor is thinking about giving them a call after seeing how great my home looks. Thanks guys."

"Scott, Joe and their team were incredible! If I could give 10 stars I would! I had them paint the entire interior of my home. From the moment I met them I knew I chose the perfect company! They made me feel like I was family and were extremely patient with my indecisiveness on choosing which color goes where! Thank you 5 star for making my home look so beautiful and like it stepped out of a magazine!"

"We hired the guys at Riverside to build us a detached garage and a deck off the rear of the main house. We needed a safe space to store our classic Corvette as well as entertain in the warmer months. We could not be happier with the end result. We have an amazing, CLIMATE CONTROLLED! garage and man cave and a great deck. I recommend the team at Riverside to all of our friends and family!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Deck staining or painting safeguards wood against the elements through its protective layer, enhancing decay resistance, prolonging structural integrity, and improving visual appeal.

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.

Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.
