Q: How long does exterior paint last?

• <div><p>An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.</p></div>

Q: Does wood stain go bad?

• <div><p>Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years. </p></div>

Q: How long do exterior paint fumes last?

• <div><p>Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.</p></div>

Q: Should deck color be lighter or darker than house?

• <div><p>Choosing whether your deck should be lighter or darker than your house is a matter of personal preference, as there is no right or wrong answer. However, considering the pros and cons of each can help guide your decision. Darker colors are often chosen because they show less dirt, footprints, and marks from daily wear, making them easier to keep clean. On the other hand, lighter deck colors tend to stay cooler in the summer. From a design perspective, using a deck color that contrasts with your home's exterior can help make the deck a more defined and distinct feature. Consulting color theory can also make the process of choosing a complementary house and deck color combination easier.</p></div>

Q: Should decks be painted or stained?

• <div><p>Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.</p></div>

"In a single word, the work performed by A&K Power Washing was “SUPERIOR.” Owner, Anthony, quickly provided an estimate to power wash/seal driveway, porch and walkways; clean vinyl siding, soffits, fascia and dormers; apply chemical application to roof shingles to prevent staining/mold, install gutter guards and lastly, clean indoor chandeliers. Within a few days, we were quickly scheduled and A&K transformed the outside our 20 year-old home into “like-new condition”. A&K was professional, friendly, honest, took pride in the job they were performing and had superior work ethic. With A&K Power Washing, and most especially owner, Anthony, we received outstanding service. The entire experience was a pleasure. Furthermore, we have requested another estimate from Anthony to paint shutters, repair and refinish wood entryway door and lay cement, as we know A&K will do a great job. Many thanks to A&K Power Washing, LLC.
