"This is the second time I have used them. Once again they did a phenomenal job!! I would give 10 stars if I could. Not only did they install new drywall in my garage but repaired the ceiling and then primed and painted. I can’t praise them enough and the job that they do. True professionals fair price and great people. Trevor you and your team nicked it out of the park AGAIN!!!! I added some before photos as well as the completed job😁"

"I Can't say enough good things about this company. Big company expertise with that small personal feel from a small company. I initially reached out over some power issues but had to put it off after discovering a roofing issue.2 months later I contacted PBS and asked to schedule something. He gave me several time slots he could be there for a quote. He came to look and I had a few issues that he had to work around in order to hook up a new panel upgrade (moving it to another side of the house as well) and some other issues. The day of the bulk of the install proved to be very difficult for him and his crew. This project was extremely difficult and took a very long dayof work. However the crew never gave up and just keep pushing to get it done. It looks beautiful, he took great care of my house while working in it and I am deeply impressed with their work ethic. Pricing was very fair as well. Highly highly recommend this team for big and small projects!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.
