"Very well. Derek worked while I was on vacation, moved some of my belongings and moved them back, did a very good job with the painting. I will be bringing him back to treat my decks."

"Luis and his crew Jexel and Junior stripped and stained our deck, when we had any concerns they accommodated us right away. The end result was beautiful."

"Lewis Painting services is excellent! I found my painter for all future work. Very professional, thorough and timely. Worked around busy rental season and got the job done. I had my outdoor deck and masonry side of the house painted. Surfaces were prepped per manufacturers requirements. Stain and paint products were top of the line. Went out of his way to make sure color was what we wanted. Did not try to change my mind because the color was difficult to find. He made it happen. Negotiated price and offered veterans discount. Very much appreciated. We'll have Lewis Painting back again."

"Everything went well with the inspection, but there was no "tune-up" (whatever this was supposed to be). Employee was on time, as well as called 1/2 hour ahead to advise of his arrival time. He was courteous and professional. I certainly hope that my sump pumps continue to operate for several more years, but I would not hesitate to call this company if there is a problem.

"D&BC Painting is one of the best companies I've hired to do my painting jobs, Dennis does an excellent work, very skillful and professional. Recently they just finished one of my kitchen's cabinets and the outcome was extremely delightful. The white color was like if it was the first original paint on the cabinets. Very impressed!!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best exterior paint for the job of painting your front porch depends on the material you’ll be painting. Acrylic paint is often recommended for a wooden porch as it’s durable and easy to apply. If your porch is made of concrete, you’ll need to find a formula suited to that material.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

You have a couple of options when choosing a durable pool deck coating. Epoxy is common and offers excellent stain and water resistance. Epoxy also withstands high temperatures and UV lighting, making it ideal for sunny spots. You can also add a coating to cement, which significantly lowers the temperature of the concrete, is environmentally safe, and makes cleanup a breeze.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

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.
