"Anton, the owner of European Craftsman and Remodeling, has done a lot of work for us over the past few years. He has painted and fixed the entire exterior of our home, repaired our roof, built a beautiful front patio with stonework, and also re-finished our cedar outdoor deck. This man is an absolute top-rate craftsman of the highest order. Every single job that he has done for us has been done with great care, detail, and amazing quality. All of this done with complete trust, no price increases unless there is an impending issue that comes up, and extreme reliability. We have other work that we need done, and there is absolutely nobody else that I will ever call in the Hudson Valley - Anton is our man! We have had nightmare issues in the past finding good carpenters and contractors - they are usually not reliable, do garbage or incorrect work, overcharge, etc so when we found Anton, we were amazed and are now thrilled. If you need something taken care of in your home or want to upgrade some appearance, painting, stonework, repair, decks, I give my highest recommendation to call Anton. I would rate his entire work for us at a 10/10 and A++ rating, no joke. I am simply a very happy customer. Frank"

"Rich and his team are truly professional painters and the best I have seen in the painting business. They stained the exterior of our home in 2021 and painted several high-ceiling rooms. They provided a fair price inclusive of paint/stain and truly are experts in painting. There are people that will paint for you and then there are professional painters who can quote a job, show up with all the necessary equipment for complex jobs and finish on-time. Highly recommend Rich and his team!"

"We recently had Joe and team paint the exterior of our home and were incredibly impressed with their professionalism and attention to detail throughout the entire process. The crew arrived on time each day, carefully prepared all surfaces, and the finished look is gorgeous Joe was communicative and chill, addressing all our concerns and so quick to come up with solutions to unforeseen problems which are very common as you know if you’ve ever had house work done lol! We highly recommend Joe for his top-notch painting services"

"Our deck is amazing! Vic gave a very fair quote and did an outstanding job. We could not have been more pleased. When additional work needed to be done, he not only gave a fair price, he came in on the weekend to get it done within the timeline. After the project was complete, he hauled away all the garbage and cleaned up the entire area. I would definitely recommend him and will be calling again for future projects."

"My wife and I were completely amazed by the quality of work, communication and price of A-1's work. Price: I had several people quote the job. The prices ranged from a little under A-1's price to nearly double. The high price was ridiculous, and the person couldnâ t explain why. My house is 20 years old, and every wall needed TLC. Jim, from A-1, understood that half the project was getting the walls and ceiling back into shape. He went through room by room and helped me understand what should be painted (walls, ceiling, and baseboard) and where I could hold off and save money (painting doors â mine were in pretty good shape). He developed a detailed quote and that was the exact price at the end of the job. Communication: Jim texted me several times leading up to the day the job started and then during the process to inform me about the status of the painters. I was never guessing when someone would show up or when the job would be complete. Quality: Wow. Shockingly good!!! There were less expensive painters, but it was clear from talking to Jim that he had many years of experience â as did the team he employed. Before the painters arrived, I told Jim that I needed to cut a 6â hole in the wall to secure some pipes the had broken free. No problem. The lead painter, John, created a patch and 30 mins later, the hole was gone. 60 minutes later, you couldnâ t tell that I had cut a hole. John went on to patch every hole, dent and corner bead that had broken free. My walls looked like they had chicken pox. John went over everything was an expert eye. Jim visited the site several times to ensure the team had everything they needed and that I was satisfied. I canâ t say enough about John, the lead painter. He was exceptional. Great attention to detail, fast, neat and very friendly. Clean-up. The team put cloth down on everything. With all the repairs, the cloth caught wall chips, mud and paint. On the last day, the team pulled these out, vacuumed everything and replaced all the furniture. Great attention to detail!!! I would recommend this contractor to all my friends and family!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.
