"I would highly recommend Bob of Proud Work Ethics LLC. He arrived on time, quickly provided fair estimates and finished the project ahead of schedule. Bob cleaned up after each day and took care to be respectful when working in our home. It is evident, that Bob takes pride in his work. We contracted Bob for a large interior project, which included spackling and repairs throughout the house, ceilings in 10 rooms, complete painting of two rooms including a large family room with cathedral ceilings, and trim work. He exceeded expectations. The house looks amazing! If you are looking for someone to paint in your home, hire Proud Work Ethics LLC."

"Honestly, I barely do any reviews, but I couldn’t let such Amazing work go uncredited. I have nothing but excellent feedback from Tom and Matt. From the day they came to give us a quote to the the day they finished the job.They did interior painting in my house with trim repair. The whole house was painting ,bathroom, doors, rooms, kitchen and kitchen cabinets , pantry and closets. From the smallest details to the most complex tones they outdid themselves. They really took their time to make sure everything came out good. He took the time to ***** and listened to what my husband and I requested. They were also very responsible and professional. Will definitely hire again for other projects we have coming up."

"Magic painting has gone above and beyond every time. Moises has painted the entirety of my house at this point, including a recent complete gut renovation. He has done everything from basic painting to complex historic wood restoration and specialty Fine Paints of Europe finishing. Heâ s courteous, attentive and more thorough than any other contractor on the job. I sincerely wish I had other jobs to hire him for because he is truly a pleasure to work with. His work is second to none and I would recommend to anyone who is truly looking for the best"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, you don't need to stain Ipe decking, although you can if you want to change the color. You will, however, need to apply a UV coating if you don't want the natural color to fade. Speak to a deck staining specialist near you to discuss the best options if you want to stain your decking. And remember that you’ll need to seal your Ipe wood deck annually to protect it from scratches and Mother Nature.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.
