"Derek and team have been to our house twice and soon a third time. Derek came the night we moved in and gave us a quote for some urgent work. The team fit us into the schedule and knocked out one large room and a fire place. The quality of work was AMAZING. They just came back and did our dining room, entry way and three other rooms. Will have them back again in spring to finish the remainder of the house. I highly recommend their services! PS - they also do deck staining and tile. Will be inquiring about that as well."
"Fabiano was a pleasure to work with. He was punctual when showing up to provide an estimate and to the project itself. He gave me accurate time lines and updates in real time when fixing my deck. After comparing 4 other contractors to replace my deck, Fabiano gave the best quote with no surprises and the estimate was spot on! I would absolutely recommend Fabiano for your next project"
"Mike and his crew did an amazing job. Mike's advice was valuable in helping us chose paint and color, the work was impeccable, fast and He even helped rebuild the wood ramp to our home and pained that as well. I have already suggested him to friends needing a pained deck. and will hire him for any future needs."
"THE TEAM FROM EASTWOOD PAINT AND CARPENTRY POWERWASH MY DECK PATIO AND SHED. THEY ALSO DID SOME MINOR REPAIRS TO MY DECK AND PUT TWO CONE COATS OF STAIN ON MY DECK. EVERYTHING LOOKS GREAT AFTER THEY FINISH. THE DECK IS 28 YEARS OLD AND YET LOOKS AS GOOD AS NEW. THE FROM EASTWOOD PAINT AND CARPENTRY WORKED VERY HARD AND MAKE SURE THING WERE DONE CORRECLTY."
"Jose was extremely personable & experienced. He and his assistant cleaned up after completion of the job. Our deck was in dire need of attention and I am well satisfied with CertaPro Painters of the Lehigh Valley. They scheduled us quickly and actually finished before the proposed time frame.
Some areas were not scraped or sanded too well but Jose said that he was taking care to not make matters worse due to the age of the wood."

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.
Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.
Hot, intense sunshine can cause your stain to dry too quickly, which could lead it to look uneven or patchy. If you’re staining the deck during hotter months, it’s best to do it in the morning or evening once the wood has had time to cool down. If you’re staining in cooler weather with less sunshine, the time of day won’t make as much of a difference.
When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.
Constant exposure to inclement weather conditions can damage your deck, causing it to fade, warp, or crack over time. Regular maintenance keeps it looking and performing its best. That means giving it a good cleaning and applying a quality sealant or wood treatment to help defend against moisture, sun damage, and everyday wear.
