"Desoto Painting and Design arrived on time and 3 very nice young men spent hours powerwashing and sanding our 2 decks, approximately 670 square feet. After a day for the wood to dry they came back and masked off all areas that were not to be stained. They then stained both decks. We let the decks stand to dry for 3 days and then they were back to clean up. All went great. Very professional. We will recommend Desoto Paint and Design."
"I am part time in a different country due to my job and Jay with Arise Eagle made the whole process quick, straight forward and provided me reassurance through it all.

"Optimum has painted multiple houses for us; inside & out. They are fair priced and finished on time, even while accommodating some last minute changes. John and his crew are knowledgeable and easy to work with; and no one knows color like Billy. They are our go to Company for paint and home repair."
"Larrabee roofing is top notch. From sales to installation, the replacement of the roof on our home was smooth. The crew worked diligently and spared no cost in craftsmanship, these guys know what they are doing! I now refer all of my clients to Larrabee roofing, for anything from repairs to replacement."
"Our new home builder gave us the name (and brand) of the color used on our back fence, and we passed that along to Arise Eagle Construction so our side fences would match the rear fence. Upon starting to stain the side fences, they noticed a slight difference in color. They were able to go back to the paint supplier and get the color matched much better. We are very pleased with Arise Eagle Construction."
"Went well. Finished quickly once started, but some delay in starting due to their busy schedule. They did a good, careful job and cleaned up nicely afterward. The door refinishing turned out to require redoing, and they returned promptly and spent a lot of time getting it just right."
The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.
Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.
Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.
To change the color of your cinder blocks, you have two options. You can either paint them or stain them. Either way, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of color options. Some popular colors for cinder block painting include off-white shades and gray tones, which add a modern spin to the traditional gray blocks.
Many decking oils can help slow down algae growth, but they don't completely stop it. These oils work by sealing the wood, which reduces moisture and, therefore, algae growth. Some decking oils also help protect against UV damage, but they need to be reapplied according to the manufacturer’s instructions to ensure the decking stays protected.
