"From the initial contact Brian and Brian were great to work with. They were very responsive, professional, and simply great guys to work with. They did a great job and were very careful to protect all surfaces not being painted. They clarified any questions with us and explained when/how they would get the job done."

"Excellent company ... Project was staining a log home & painting a metal sided barn/garage. A very detailed quote showed Michael had listened to me during conversations on phone and visit to our property. Angi has so far been a good source for reliable contractors. Clean Cut Painting employees are very efficient and personable. They showed up each day ready to work and work they did. Ryan kept me informed during the prep process as my log home needed a lot of TLC. Weather cooperated (most of the time) and the project was completed in less than two weeks. Ryan went above and beyond to make sure I was satisfied with the quality of his and his crew's work. Attention to detail was excellent. I would hire this company for any painting projects I may have in the future. I've also recommended this company to friends and neighbors. Thank you Clean Cut Painting for a job well done."

"Lleshi Painting has truly raised the property value of my home by his attention to detail, focus and commitment to doing the job right. He literally changed my home from night to day. I had some hideous yellow walls with very ROUGH texture throughout the home. He went above and beyond to the point that the home looks brand new and not from the 70s. He listened to my concerns and requests for a Contemporary/Modern look and delivered as promised beyond my expectations! Dede is an honest man who gave me a fair price, was easy to work with, and finished the job on time. Thank you!"

"The prep power washing was done on a Saturday, I was very happy about that so I didn't have to take two days off of work. The stain work was done on the following Wednesday. The quality of the bush and roll work was good, the stain didn't dry as quickly as it probably should have, possibly due to the proximity of the power washing and rain the day before. this meant the deck furniture caused a little damage when replaced three days later, not the amount of damage that could not be fixed easily, just a nuisance. The stain has since cured and hardened and looks very good.

"The roof replacement was not an urgent matter but I decided to proceed anyhow. I can't say if the estimate and final cost were high or low because I didn't seek other bids. I did select a style of shingle that was just a bit more expensive because of the colors. Tim and the crew were punctual, hard-working, neat, and courteous over the course of the work. The end result is beautiful. Tim returned afterward to check for odds and ends and to discuss deck work to be done in the spring. I highly recommend L and H construction."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

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.
