"Scott was very professional from the day he came for the estimate. He gave a fair price and made great recommendations to strengthen the deck. On the days he and his team came for power washing and painting - they were efficient, thorough and neat. Our deck is quite old and Scott’s team gave it new life. I recommend Scott for work at you home!"

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We couldn’t be happier with the work Manuel did on our house. He covered everything the renovation required- tile work, plastering, plumbing, electric, carpentry. The tile work is absolutely flawless, the baseboards were installed with great attention to detail, and the plastering on the ceilings came out smooth and professional. Everything was done with care, precision, and a clear pride in craftsmanship. He was reliable, punctual, and kept the work area clean throughout the project. Communication was excellent, and he made sure everything was done exactly the way we wanted. The house looks completely transformed, and the quality of work exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a skilled, trustworthy handyman. We will definitely be using him again for future projects!"

"The work we had done recently was not limited to painting the outside of my home! Vito has such great vision, and all of his recommendations were included in the work: power-washing the patio and walkways; painting the back shed and finishing the hardware; special black oil painting of the gates and fence and mailbox, etc. They all did a wonderful job and followed up! I wouldn't hesitate to set up a schedule to have other projects done by Vito and his Fantasia crew! Just wonderful!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

It's okay to walk on a newly painted deck after about four to six hours as long as the weather has been dry. Be sure to wait at least 24 hours before you place any outdoor furniture or grills on a freshly painted deck, though.
