"If you are looking for a skilled, reliable, and honest builder look no further. Throughout our project planing Michael was helpful and knowledgeable, during the work schedule Michael was in full communication, disclosed any setbacks, and redirected any issue that arose. Home project can take on a life of their own, but Michael managed it all with poise and determination to get me relaxing on my beautiful deck as soon as possible. I would (and will) hire Michael and his crew again."

"Astrit and his crew were very friendly and professional. They repaired my front porch which had missing spindles and some rotting wood. Now the porch is very sturdy and no longer an eye sore. I’m very happy with their work and would recommend them for similar home improvement projects."

"The handy men were really nice and respectful. They did 2 jobs for me which includes a tv set with a fire place and a bead board for my California king size bed. The job was done in 3hrs and the work was done sufficiently. They cleaned up after themselves. They made sure I was comfortable and that I was happy with there work. I will definitely be contacting them for all my future handy work."

"Edwin did an excellent job. I had him prep and paint my living and dining room. They were in really rough shape and they had to basically skim coat every surface and it turned out wonderful. Edwin was very timely, did an great job communicating, and was affordable. I was very happy with the finished product and will probably be hiring him again in the future."

"I cannot recommend E&S Home Improvement highly enough!!! Edgar & his team were true professionals - from the consultation through the completion of the project, Edgar was communicative, patient with discussing options, and very thorough with the work. His team was friendly, respectful of the space & meticulous. They were always on-time & came when they said they would, removed their shoes in the house and even washed the windows at the end of the job. We hired E&S to change the color of our house from brown to dark gray with black trim. Edgar had videos of similar houses he’d painted to show us examples, and provided great recommendations. We are thrilled with how the house looks! E&S also designs and installs custom bathrooms with beautiful tile work, so we hope to hire them for that (& anything else!) in the future."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

Hiring a contractor or professional deck refinisher is the best way to ensure your deck is properly stained. They have the expertise, tools, and supplies to do the job quickly and efficiently. However, staining a deck is a manageable task for most homeowners, and doing the job yourself can save money. Just keep in mind that DIY staining is a long process requiring physical strain, so it may not be the best option for everyone.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
