"Prompt, reliable, and professional service. Good communication with Steve via email and Dennis on site before, during, and after the project was completed. Fair price for the job and good workmanship. I have already recommended them to others. I had them replace the railing, treads, and bottom platform of an outdoor staircase leading up to a second story deck."

"After months of planning I finally decided that I wanted to go ahead and renovate my kitchen along with my downstairs bathroom. I did some searching on local contractors in the area and was fortunate enough to come across JNJ - I have to say what a blessing it was to come across such a company. From the day JNJ came to my home to give me an detailed and informed estimate I knew I was in good hands. Nicholas who handled the majority of the renovation went above and beyond to help bring to life what I had envisioned for months. Not only did he provide excellent suggestions and insight to areas that I wouldn't have even thought of, he went the extra mile showing me materials that cost a fraction of what I was originally intending them to and have an even better appearance. When it came to demolishing the existing kitchen he even showed me where insulation was missing in it's exterior walls and suggested re-insulating to keep my home energy efficient as possible. JNJ truly transformed my kitchen and bathroom into what I dreamed them to be. I am forever thankful for their hard work and phenomenal craftsmanship their team put into my home. Not only did they create something magnificent but their charismatic approach to make sure I was 100% satisfied is unmatchable by anyone I have ever had work in my home before. Can't wait for the next project - Thanks JNJ!!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

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.
