"I highly recommend custom concept for any home improvement needs. I hired Gabriel and his team to get my rental property updated and ready to rent. They installed flooring through the entire home updated all lighting fixtures replaced and painted all door's as well as drywall repair and painted the entire home. Safe to say I have found my go to contractor and will continue to use him on all my future needs."

"Would hire Reflections Window and Gutter again in a heartbeat. Strong professionalism and I did not feel like I was getting taken advantage of like so often happens with contractors. They did a great job power washing the front of my house which had deep rain water and dirt stains. I really did not have high hopes that it would look much better afterward but it came out looking like it did when we bought the home. These guys did a great job."

"We are very happy with the services provided by AAA Custom Painting. Andres was very friendly, professional and detail oriented. We had our shutters and garage doors repainted along with some additional exterior trim in Oct. 2016 and have been very happy with the results. Our 30+ year old garage doors look new again! We would recommend AAA to any of our friends and neighbors."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

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

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.
