"My experience with Universe Painting and Juan has been amazing! They were always on time and their work is beautiful! They are extremely clean and after each day of work leave the house very clean! They are highly professional. We not only hired them to paint the interior of our entire house, they also repaired water damage to ceilings and popcorn ceilings and completely power washed the exterior of our home!"

"Frank and his team recently painted the whole inside of our home. Him and his guys were professional showed up on time. They got right to work in the morning with everything covered and drop cloths throughout. They were meticulous and even stayed until the paint dried to see it needed another coat. Turns out it didn’t need another coat so they stayed longer than necessary to make sure the job was right. I will be hiring him again soon to do the bathrooms next."

"There were two painters and a worker that did the necessary sweeping, picking up of debris, etc., so that the painters could keep doing the painting. We have a storage loft in the garage that needed to be emptied which was not an easy task as the loft did not allow the men to stand up. One painter had to bend over to push the storage containers to the edge of the loft so that the other could bring them down the ladder. No items were broken including my antique collection of Christmas tree ornaments! They patiently put all the items back in specific areas as I requested. They also needed to remove some shelving to paint the walls and then replace the shelving. The were extremely neat professionals and so very careful of our rugs and furniture for the staining and painting they needed to do in the townhouse. There was a daily visit by the on-site manager who was efficient and pleasant to work with. The owner, Paul develops a full contract so that there a clear agreement as to the work to be done. All details are included. This is a very professional company. As well, they were pleasant and good-natured individuals for the three work days they were here."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

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.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
