"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

Provided conditions are ideal, staining an entire deck should take as little as a couple of hours and up to a couple of days to apply and cure. Additional procedures, like sealing a deck or using additional treatments, may extend the project by a few additional days.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.
