"Simply brilliant.  Rodrigo gave me a competitive quote for labor to stain my deck.  I supplied Messemers UV Plus IPE deck stain,  they provided brushes, rags and labor.   Everything was done in one day (8am - 8pm) with no mess.  Preparation was first class,  and the team worked very hard to get the deck completed in one day with no left over mess.  Once dry the team came back and moved all of my furniture back on to the deck.  Thank you!  Will definitely use Rodrigo and his team again in the near future.

"From the time I met Sheki, I felt really comfortable hiring J & S Painting to do the work we needed around the house. We have now used them twice in the past year for two large painting projects at our house. Sheki's prices were competitive compared to all the other quotes I got. If I had any questions while the work was going on, Sheki and Pam, the office manager, would respond quickly. I initially hired J&S in Fall of 2019 to paint my basement, sand and paint all the wooden siding and trim on the exterior of my house, paint the window shutters, power wash the exterior of my house, and stain my deck. Jose and the crew did an amazing job over multiple days completing all the work and cleaning up all the materials. I ended up expanding the scope of the project and also had Jose replace the top railings on my deck, which they did for a very fair price. When I also asked Sheki if they could also paint the metal railings on my front steps, he didn't even charge me extra for it. A few months after the initial project was complete, we decided to paint the majority of the interior of the house this summer (July 2020). We went back to Sheki and J & S Painting. They painted the walls, ceilings, trim, and doors in multiple rooms (including a room with cathedral ceilings) with two coats in two days. I also had them paint the risers, stringers, and baluster on our stairs. Work also included painting a portion of the aluminum siding on the side of the house. The crew was quick, efficient, precise, and did excellent work. I will hire J & S Painting again the next time we have a painting project."

"We hired MH Painting to repair several large cracks on walls and ceiling, to paint 3 rooms including a bedroom where he sanded and refinished the floor, to paint our hallway and paint and refinish several doors. He also painted our staircase. Matt did an excellent job! He was very skilled and accommodating. We are very pleased with the results and will definitely call on MHPainting for future projects."

"Nilton and his team were fantastic. I contacted them via a coupon on Angie's list and we came to an agreement to help me finish the stain (they ended up doing the majority of and finishing the work for a VERY fair price). Very clean job with no paint on the house or grounds. Highly recommend."

Customers say: Quick response

"First I was planning to power-wash and stain the deck, but Orlando talked me into power-wash the whole house and paint as well. The price was reasonable. Even though the work was postponed due to the rain, Orlando called and emailed constantly to give me their schedule. They exchanged the top part of the deck and repaired here and there, and I find their carpentry skills are excellent. I definitely will ask him to do something around the house in the future."

"I highly recommend Loja Renovations & Fine Carpentry LLC! Manuel and Fabian were professional, courteous, and did an outstanding job. They helped me with several projects in my home, including mounting two TVs, installing a shoe rack, hanging a very heavy mirror, putting up window shades, and installing several shelves. Everything was done carefully and professionally, and they were extremely helpful throughout the entire process. What I especially appreciated was how prompt and reliable they were. They came all the way from Corona, Queens, and arrived ready to get everything done. Their attention to detail and quality of work really stood out. They offer a wide range of renovation and carpentry services, and based on my experience, I would absolutely hire them again for future projects. It’s not always easy to find people who are dependable, skilled, courteous, and take pride in their work, so I’m very glad I found Manuel and Fabian."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

Limewash and whitewash are two techniques used to give brick a light, matte finish, but they differ in composition, application, and permanence. The best choice depends on your aesthetic goals and the specific surface.

Composition

  • Limewash: A natural and environmentally friendly option made from limestone, water, and sometimes pigments. It is breathable and soaks into porous surfaces like brick.

  • Whitewash: Traditionally made from lime, water, chalk, and binders, but a similar look can be achieved with watered-down white paint. It is paint-based and sits on top of the surface.

Appearance and Finish

  • Limewash: Provides a natural, textured appearance that allows the brick's character to show through. It offers a more traditional finish.

  • Whitewash: Creates a softer, more opaque finish, often used for a rustic or shabby-chic style.

Application and Permanence

  • Limewash: Is semi-permanent and can be removed, making it a good choice if you might want to change the look in the future. It requires more skill to apply and cannot be used on previously painted brick.

  • Whitewash: Is a more permanent solution. It is more forgiving to apply and can be used on painted brick. However, because it sits on the surface, it can trap moisture.

Ultimately, if you want a breathable, natural, and reversible finish for unpainted brick, limewash is a great option. If you need a more permanent, opaque coating that can be applied over painted surfaces, whitewash is the better choice. Whitewashing may also be more economical, costing approximately $1.40 to $4.20 per square foot.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.
