"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."

"I have a house with a stained cedar exterior and I needed the window trim re-stained. There are a lot of windows and it is a big job.
Mark and his crew came eaarly in the morning  and worked until dark to get it all done on one of the few dry, sunny days we had that week.  They were very neat and professional and and took great care not to get the stain on the windows!  Mark is a great guy, he and his crew  have great attention to detail, I wouldn't hesitate to use him again!

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

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.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months.
