"His scheduling takes a while if you sre are a small job you are put I believe between the larger jobs the power washing on the cabin was good the young man had an attitude on the deck and retaining wall not so good. The staining on the cabin was great the paint on the deck on the spindles was sloppy the wood on the deck that was replaced one piece as a 2 inch hole another is buckling others should have been replaced but were not The first day he sent two carpenters here they ran out of wood so they went home early. While staining the cabin one one the workers broke a light fixture that runs through out the outside They did not cover one part of the screened porch so the screen has stain on it I got a lot of BS about replacing the glass cylinder the next day he showed up with a cheap replacement from Home Depot? … oh the replacement glass was coming in two weeks. He left a pile of garbage from the deck and gave me another story about how he would be doing a job close to my house in 2 weeks and would bring the broken glass for the light and do me a favor and take the garbage because his guy would charge 300dollars to take it……. I’m still waiting…… I could have held some money back but that is not my way He did pick up the phone when I called and he did answer my messages I think Anthony tried a lot did address some of my concerns. But there was slot of BS along the way. His workers we very polite would I use him again. I think not"

"I have had Isaac paint the exterior of my house twice. He did a fantastic paint job both times, I just wanted a color change. He is very experienced. I asked a lot of questions and he walked me through everything. Arrived on time each day, kept the work area tidy, cleaned up thoroughly, and did a great paint job. I have had him paint the inside of my house, the kitchen cabinets, the bathroom cabinets, and the exterior. A+ job on all he is painted. He is very friendly, knowledgeable, patient, and professional. He is a very nice guy!"

"My experience with Olvin was terrific! He was prompt, reliable, and easy to work with. The finished product was exactly what I wanted, and when I identified a small item I wasn’t 100% happy with he was quick to rectify it. After completing the flooring and painting job for me, I hired him to do another small project which he made time for on a Sunday. I plan to work with Olvin and his team in the future as I make renovations and improvements to my home."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

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.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.
