"Eric refinished our garage door and back porch steps which were in rough shape. He also painted the trim and shutters. It was a big job and required a lot of sanding, scraping and putty work. We are very happy with his work. He takes his time, does careful prep and paints neatly. No slops on the windows. The garage door and steps look like new. We will use him again. He is honest and trustworthy. A week later we asked him to come back and refinish our 60-year-old knotty pine kitchen cabinets. He did a fantastic job on him and they look like new now"

"Very pleased with their overall performance and timing of my patio. Only took 4 days from start to finish. Everyone was very friendly and worked hard making it all come together the way we wanted it to look. At the last minute I asked if they can also do landscaping around the perimeter of the patio and they did an amazing job. Everything looks beautiful and we can not wait to entertain this summer. Highly professional !!"

"We were pleased to have hired Richard. He is a go-getter and was very proactive, customer focused and engaged through the process. The up front engagement/sales process was professional and smoothly transacted. Richard responded to all our questions in person and in emails and with photos. He also made a recommendation for a deck repair person that we engaged and were pleased with. During execution we did have some re-work which is what drives the overall rating to be a 4. We had a "supervisor"/lead person here throughout the job being one of the two workers but it is also this supervisor's work both in painting and in wood/caulking repair that had to be re-done. Had I not been home to spot the painting issue where wood was painted that was supposed to be left bare and was clearly delineated by Richard to the worker and in photos, the re-work would have been much more of a challenge but was fixed with paint remover and not too much effort. The wood/caulking work was quite clearly not well done initially by the "supervisor" either and was therefore redone when we pointed out our dissatisfaction in a walk through. I didn't have faith in the "supervisor"/lead person. The second person worked tirelessly and was what I'd call the workhorse. One thing that might have been improved is to have had a clearly communicated final inspection plan and date as I was a bit unclear when was to be called done as we had several walk throughs. Having several walk throughs is a positive thing but it would have been better to have the final clearly planned and communicated. Overall we recommend and are repeat Certapro Customers having used them at another home we owned in another state which is what drove us to favor the Company this time around."

"I have no complaint with the quality of their work. However, as usual with a house built in 1895, the job grew as they worked! A simple gutter replacement turned into a complete Porch roof replacement. Considerably more expensive. I could see the water damage myself so I didnâ  t feel they were being dishonest. The job was completed quickly and efficiently. I am satisfied."

"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."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.
