"I'm very detail oriented (probably anal retentive) and have had painters in the past who haven't done a great job and they paint "outside the lines."  I hired Mark last year to paint the downstairs and was so impressed with him that I hired him again for the upstairs and our screened in porch.  
Mark and his crew are so meticulous that someone like me had a hard time finding any issues!  They patched old phone jacks that weren't needed anymore, painted baseboards, ceilings, walls, doors, and windows.  Before leaving for the day, Mark would say to me, "let me know if you see any issues and I will fix them tomorrow."  He knew that I was anal retentive and had the patience to deal with me but like I said, I had a hard time finding any issues.  However, if I did find anything, he immediately fixed it with no issue.
He was extremely professional and easy to work with.  He definitely aims to please his customers with the quality of work that he does.  I would recommend him to anyone!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.
