"Rick and his team were efficient, clean and careful to cover all floor surfaces and furniture. They cleaned up at the end of every day. They spent time to research to make certain the correct product was applied prior to the final coat of stain. I will define hire MOV Paintinjg for future projects."

"Over the past 13 years I have had numerous contractors work on my 7 rental properties. but Gary Brown has surpassed them all in quality of craftmanship, time taken to complete the job, and price. For this project he and his crew did the following: Sided (vinyl) and reroofed a laundry room addition, reroofed one side of the main roof, power washed and stained the deck, reinstalled faulty gutters, and came up with a creative solution for the six columns that hold up the front porch, adding metal "feet," and wood trim and then painting them and the entire porch, making the neighbors very happy. The roof over the laundry roof had to be raised to give it a better pitch, something I hadn't thought of as a way to stop the leaking once and for all. Gary sent me digital Before and After pictures from his computer. This was great because I live 10 hours away and couldn't actually visit the site. These guys really are professional, and they completed everything in 4 days! They also did a few extra details that I hadn't asked for to make the total curb appeal especially sharp. They take pride in what they do. To see the Before and After photos, write to me at [email protected] Gary is a real pro. He's communicative, smart, techno savy, and a man of his word. I can't recommend him highly enough. As you can see, he does EVERYTHING, and that includes indoor projects. On a scale of 1-10, I give hims a solid 10."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.
