"My husband and I happily bought the house in which I had been raised, after having rented it out for 12 years.  It is a lovely house, but was left with striking problems. The wrap-around front porch columns and railings had many thick layers of lead paint, with numerous chunks chipped out down to the wood.  My memories of summers sanding the porch in preparation for my father's painting of it, raised a lot of sadness in me about the terrible painting maintenance of more recent years.
After considering several bids, we  chose to work with Nick Montagnese of iPaint because of his total appreciation of our concerns, but also of our limited budget. He researched every paint stripping method and priced each, which made it clear that we could only smooth out the severe patches by hand. Lead paint removal is dangerous unless done legally by certain methods, some of which are extremely expensive ($50,000 for our porch!).
Nick's workers were wonderful. They all were as invested as Nick in giving us a beautifully repaired and painted home. The men spent weeks chipping loose paint off the columns and railings, and never left any of it for us to discard. They cleaned up every day. They used new filler products that allowed the following coats of paint to be totally smooth. This spectacular upgrade of our porch is outstanding.  Many passers by and friends stopped to compliment the change, and a driver even stopped to take photos out his car window! Others wrote down iPaint's sign info.  All of the repairs, including lattice around the house, were skillfully done by Nick's crew, some by his competent carpenters. The entire paint job, from shingles to shutters to woodwork to lattice to porch is excellent.
Nick's crew is a very competent, responsible, and happy group of men who enjoy working together.  They were actually invested in producing a beautifully painted home for us, taking pride in their work. They appreciated every cup of coffee and donut, and were wonderful to have around!  All of the positive comments of other iPaint customers are true about Nick and his workers.
This job was a reach for us financially, but was well worth it and not unfair when considering the quality of the work and the increased value of our home. Because of our budget, Nick had broken down the various parts of the overall job into the costs of each. We were able to choose what parts we could afford now, with a plan to complete other parts at a later date, such as more shutters.
We cannot more confidently recommend Nick and his workers. Nick is a good person who listened to our needs and limits and was creative and caring in helping us get an even better product than we had imagined was possible.  iPaint deserves an A+!"

"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."

"Scheduling the appointment was very easy and they were responsive. They were able to come the next day. I was not able to be there, but my neighbor was home and said that things went well. When I came home and after everything had dried, I could see areas where there dirt streaks had been left and they didn't get under the deck but for the price it did make the house look better. I would hire again if I was there in person."

"I was extremely pleased with the results. Mike and his dad are very professional and considerate and their work is great. Although we focused on skimcoating and painting, their skills would enable them to do any task I could imagine arising in my house. Highly recommend. (The cost I am citing in this review is the Angie's List initial deal.)"

Deck Maintenance FAQs, answered by experts

While the terms deck and porch are often used interchangeably, they are two distinct structures. A porch is a covered structure, usually attached to the front of a home, that offers protection from the elements. In contrast, a deck is an open, uncovered platform, often attached to the back or side of a home. Because porches have a roof, they typically require less maintenance than decks, but both features need regular cleaning and repairs to stay in good condition.

You should refinish your deck to maintain its appearance, durability, and longevity. Refinishing your deck protects the wood from foot traffic and the elements. It also helps extend its life span by keeping rot, mildew, and termites at bay. By maintaining your deck, you can avoid the cost of replacing your deck sooner. A refinished deck also looks great and restores some of its original beauty.

Materials for a second-story deck must be weather- and rot-resistant, though the specific choices will largely be determined by your budget and style preference. Pressure-treated wood is on the lower end of the price scale, but it can be customized and stained the way you like it. Composite, on the other hand, is pricier for installation and has fewer options for customization, but you’ll save money and time in the long run because it requires little maintenance.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

The proper and most comfortable height for a deck stair riser, also called a step, is between four and seven inches. A height of seven inches is often considered ideal for a strain-free step that minimizes the risk of trips and falls. While it is possible to have risers up to 12 inches, this height can be challenging for children, pets, or individuals with mobility issues. For optimal safety and comfort, pair a seven-inch riser with a tread depth (or run) of at least 10 to 12 inches. Always check your local building codes, as they may have specific requirements that differ from these general recommendations.
