"They were very good / timely with their communication. Initially came by to give me an estimate. Was a little higher than the other estimate I got but they provided a water trailer which the other didn't which was good since we have a well. They came the next day and Power washed the deck and replaced one board that had routed. The next day the theysprayed the deck with Shirwin Williams solid color stain that was mixed to match the stain on the house siding. Did a good job. Would recomend."

"They are doing some work for us. They have started it, but not completed it yet. We're kind of on hold right now because of the weather. They're installed the down spouts, but it was too cold to paint. They have completed approximately 50% of the work. The estimate was free. We have box gutters. They're not like the typical aluminum gutters you slap onto the side of a house. They are built into the home.  He was very thorough in evaluating the problem. I had confidence that I would not have to have him come back later or that he'd be coming back for more money. He was very thorough. He got up on the roof on both the second and on top of the third floor. His response with the quote was pretty quick. He was very professional about it. The only piece was he had other work going on, so there was a significant delay from him getting the quote completed, us saying yes to go forward to him doing the work. That sort of pushed it so that there was no chance of the job being completed. We knew it was a risk when he completed the quote. He said he had other jobs and the jobs took longer than expected, so it did push his work out by probably a month. At that point, he couldn't do the whole job. We were ok with that, but I wouldn't say it was a black mark because he was very upfront with the challenges he had to do before he could do us. We didn't get multiple quotes on this because he came with recommendations from both Angie's List and our local list serve, where we track people in our neighborhood who are doing work. So I can't speak to the competitiveness. The quality of the work was good. He had to work with the challenges of not being able to sink some screws into some loose mortar. We have some loose mortar, so he worked through that. It was a long day for him and he was there a long time. But he got it all done. He always returned my phone calls. When he said he'd be here, he was here. On-time. Didn't have to wait for him.

"Phil and his team did a wonderful job digging up my old patio and replacing it with a deck built with Trex materials. The job was done professionally and he worked with me, even when I added additional scope to the job. I highly recommend them and plan on using P Sqrd LLC for future projects."

"Very well! Andrew the owner & his associates completed the job in two visits. The first was to power wash the cedar porch ceiling and decking/ railings which took about 2 1/2 hrs. Two days later (rain in forecast) they were able to polyurethane the ceiling & stain the rest in about 8 hrs. It turned out great and was long overdue."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

The best type of paint for concrete exterior surfaces like concrete porches, steps, or walkways is high-quality exterior-grade paint with strong weather resistance. Acrylic latex blends with tiny anti-slip particles will help create an anti-slip coating for your concrete porch. This type of paint will stand up best to the elements, especially rain, snow, and ice. An exterior epoxy will also help strengthen your concrete porch.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface.
