"A phenomenally positive experience. Francisco, the owner, was extremely helpful and always easy to reach. His crew did excellent work and came reliably, exactly when they said they would. They were meticulous about protecting floors and furnishing and always cleaned up at the end of the day. Also, they worked quietly (no radio, etc) which I appreciated greatly as I work from home. The painters spoke very little English and I speak no Spanish. But Francisco was always immediately reachable by phone if something needed to be communicated and he stopped by most days. Last, but certainly not least. We got three estimates and New Era's was the lowest."

"Eric from WePaint is great. I had pine doors and poplar wood trim that were poorly stained (by myself). Eric came and stripped the doors and poplar, restained all the wood, and put a coat of poly on it all. Very thorough and detaile orientated (like myself) - his hard work removing all the of layers of old stain was great. He salvaged a really poor staining job that I did. Would definitely recommend, friendly and funny guy too. Knows his stuff. Would definitely have Eric do more work. A pleasure."

"Good as Gold brought my two level deck back to life. They used the highest quality materials and supplies. The deck boards are median cocoa color, spindles and railings white. I love the contrast. It s a master piece! Greg was so great to work with. I will have them back to do more work inside the home."

"Karl and his crew are phenomenal. They show up when they say they are going to show up and always finish the job on time. A lot of contractors you feel you need to keep an eye on or keep on track - not Karl and his crew. I can’t say enough about them. I have used them numerous times over the past 4 years for painting and other jobs and not once have I been disappointed, it’s been the exact opposite. His work is second to none. I would be happy to give reference. My cell is 215.913.8615"

"I feel sorry for amyone that had an opportunity to work with this family owned, local business, and wind up using someone else. Ive had an amazing experience with Jay, his brother Serge and the crew that worked on my home for 3 weeks. They have worked closely with my designer and painted the entire home. We also found out that they do carpemtry too and had them do the ceiling trays in the great room. I will be recomending them to all of my family. Terrific job LHI!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint. 

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.
