"Todd and his wife were great. Honest, fair, on time, very knowledgeable, reasonable pricing with great attention to detail. Work was done as promised and within the discussed timeline. Todd was always available to talk and didn’t take the rushed approach. I felt at ease working with Todd and crew, knowing that they intend to do the job right the first time. The area was left clean and Todd takes the extra time to ensure you are happy with the finished project. The exterior of the home was neglected for many decades and was in very rough shape. Todd and his crew worked magic. Would recommend to anyone!"

"Neil Tufano is exceptional. We have had many people do work at our home and he is easily the best. He cleaned, sanded and stained our deck. He didn't use our hoses to clean up so there was no paint (stain) in our sink, driveway or paths to the house. He cleans everything in his trailer. He arrives on time and communicates effectively to keep you informed of progress and or delays. He didn't leave tools or rags around the deck and provides little extras such as extra bolts to provide better support to railings. He is very conscious of your time and schedules around any conflicts you may have. I highly recommend Neil and I have hired him to do 2 more projects for us. Great Guy and very reasonably priced. Customer focused. Hire him once and you'll ask him back. Guaranteed."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
