"Ross was a pleasure to work with during a large exterior painting project on my house. He provided a detailed contract as to what was to be done, which was helpful for both of us. The job involved painting multiple surfaces including aluminum siding and sofffits, steel window frames, stucco and wood, and he was knowledgeable about how to paint each surface. The painting was neatly done, and he cleaned up thoroughly at the end of each day. When I pointed out issues, he was quick to correct them. When contacted by text during while off the job, he was quick to reply making our communication easy. I would not hesitate to recommend him to others or hire him for another job."

"We bought a home two years ago that was built in 1927, and we’ve been in the process of renovating it. It is our home, so we’re doing the work so we can continue to live in the house, not to sell it. We hired Robert Dell’Aquila to replaster the ceilings and walls in our living room, dining room, foyer, and staircase. The old ceilings in our LR and DR were old 12x12 tiles over furring strips. The old plaster on our foyer and staircase ceilings was a “stipple” texture, and the walls in the various rooms were two different types of textured plaster, high-relief “orange-peel” and swirled. It was ugly and had numerous cracks in it. Robert and his crew did a wonderful job of giving us smooth plaster walls and beautiful “skip-trowel” textured plaster ceilings in all those areas. The whole crew did good work, but Tony Baker, who is Robert’s partner, is particularly noteworthy. Tony supervised the job and did the ceilings. The work he did on the ceilings is beautiful. He did a fabulous job. As for the walls, I couldn’t believe they were able to give us such a smooth finish over those old heavily textured walls. Robert worked with us to accommodate our schedule delays when a contractor who was supposed to do some preliminary work for us (taking down the crown molding, removing the old ceiling tiles, and some unrelated electrical work) bailed on us after months of delays, and we had to hire a different contractor to do that work. I appreciate that Robert was easy to contact and responsive, and I could communicate with him by text or email. When we were finally ready, Robert scheduled our job to begin within a week. The work took four days and each day the crew was prompt, worked hard, was meticulous, and was thorough. They paid a lot of attention to detail and cleaned up well when the job was completed. The price seemed fair for the amount of work we had them do. We are very happy we chose Robert Dell’Aquila and Tony Baker to do the work for us, and we would recommend them without any reservation."

"STOP-- if your looking for a professional painting contractor, look no further. you just found one. Donald and his crew prepared and painted 2 coats of paint to the exterior of our house. It is a  5 bedroom brick with a lot of wood trim, a rather large job. he started and was finished as per his estimate, there were no " I need more money requests "  as is common with others. also, they sealed and stained a new deck. he is not happy, until you are with his work.no down payments for the job, you pay only when you are happy and they are done. he actually answers the phone, unlike others you call and your call goes straight to voice mail. I would use his company again."

"The crew was on time each day. They were professional and easy to work with. They patched and painted the deck and ceiling of my garage to stop the leaking into my workshop.The job came out real good. They had to move the furniture off my deck and some woodworking equipment from my workshop all went well. The real test for this repair will be when it rains later this week and there is no more leak. I would recommend A + for your future projects."

"After realizing my past landscaper wasn't as great as I thought, I hired Jeff after seeing him work on a neighbor's yard. I've waited to submit so I could see how the plants took off and to see how some of his suggestions turned out. Unlike the last company, Jeff didn't pretend to listen to me; he gave me ideas and then gave me time to research them; he didn't push me into doing what he wanted but between what I wanted and his expertise, it all came together beautifully. My husband and I are thrilled with the results and have enjoyed our view from the start. Jeff and his crew arrived on time and they didn't stand around chatting----they got right to work; put a full day in; cleaned up; you can tell that Jeff really cares about what he does. I feel confident that I have finally found the landscape company worth sticking with!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
