"My wife was thrilled with the results! What a transformation! We experienced excellent service. the team was professional on phone and in person. Even junior members of the team were polite and used clean language. They were also thoughtful, when considering the weather and what effect it would have on their work. Price was competitive among other contractors. They removed our awnings permanently -our request- at no extra cost. They also suggested replacing the front gutter, and charged only for materials. Overall we highly recommend and would hire them again for any future work."

"Absolutely splendid! He was wonderful. And super quick! I did not expect him to finish painting it as fast as he did. I’m a real Karen sometimes and I was looking all over the cabinets. Not a single stray run of paint. I mean really, he did great! ? I would hire him again for sure"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

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.

You’ll need to restrain your deck when you notice fading, cracking, peeling, or mold and mildew over a moderate to large area, or when it’s become especially difficult to clean. As for how often to stain a deck, plan to do it every two to three years or whenever you start to notice extended damage.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.
