"Steve and his crew are very friendly and excellent painters. They painted our entire house in approximately 41/2 days, which was amazing! We got 5 quotes and Steve was the lowest among them. He definitely had a more laid back approach than other companies, which we liked. However, that style also translated into his quote, which was less specific than others. We did feel there was a slight rush to complete the job. We discovered some of the furniture supports we're twisted or bent from beds and dressers being moved back quickly. Overall, the work was beautiful and we'd recommend him."

"Estimator arrived when expected. I was very impressed by his professionalism and knowledge. While I did not choose Nolan's for the deck which is my immediate need, I will most likely use them for the interior work."

"We recently had the exterior of our home painted and are thrilled with the end result! As homeowners for over 30 years, the quality, skill and professional manner by which Heiler Painting completed our project was our very best experience compared to many other painting contractors. We were very cautious when searching for the best contractor to paint our home due to the magnitude of the project. We were quickly impressed with Apostoli s character, his integrity, great knowledge, skill-set and his approach to providing us with a long-lasting job to beautify and protect the outside of our home. His consideration and dedication created a wonderful result. Apostoli fulfilled his promises and exceeded them! Led by one of Heiler s foremen, Craig, his crew arrived every day at 7am and worked productive and consecutive long days until the project was complete--something very rare with contractors today. We were most impressed with the crew s attention to detail when prepping and painting surfaces, in using the very best and proper products for the various surfaces on our home and cleaning up our property at the end of each day. Our communication with Apostoli, from estimating to the completion of the project, exceeded our expectations! We are very happy with our decision to use Heiler Painting and have also contracted them to paint our home s interior soon. WE HIGHLY RECOMMEND HEILER PAINTING TO ANYONE WHO DESIRES BEAUTIFUL + PROFESSIONAL RESULTS AT A FAIR PRICE!! A+++/5 STARS! Our very highest rating!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Hangers are one way of attaching stair stringers to a deck. These metal hangers are usually adjustable, allowing you to find the ideal angle for a secure installation. They’re the best choice for installing longer staircases, such as one on a two-story deck, to reduce the load on the deck frame while keeping the stairs stable.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

Oxygen bleach uses hydrogen peroxide as a base and won’t harm wood when using it as a cleaner. On the other hand, chlorine bleach breaks down wood at the cellular level and causes irreversible harm. Although you may not see immediate damage to wood after exposing it to chlorine bleach, its strength and integrity are now compromised.

Various kinds of substances and deck preservatives act as protective coatings for wood to prevent rot, which is caused by water getting into the wood and creating cracks and splits. Stains, paints, and sealants are the three best options to protect your wood, but there are also oils, varnishes, and waxes available. You’ll need to reapply sealant at least once per year, and you should inspect your wood deck regularly to look for signs of damage or general wear and tear.

It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.
