"Ronnie was very professional, easy to work with, and the job was priced fairly. However, his crew removed screening in the soffits which we had installed to keep red squirrels out. They did not put it back so we had to pay someone to redo the job. They painted the deck the day after it rained. Less than a year later it is peeling. Also, the deck stain did not hold well and in some places is down to bare wood. I have contacted Ronnie three times and not heard back."

"Dan and his crew did a fantastic job. We were looking for our popcorn ceilings to be removed and painted, some minor wall repairs, and painting of all walls for our whole house. We got five quotes and Dan's was the most reasonable. Dan explained everything about the process and gave us updates as they worked through the house. They worked through weekends and finished in two weeks which is how long Dan anticipated it would take. The end price was as quoted. The crew cleaned up as they moved from room to room (popcorn removal is an extremely messy process). The house looks amazing and we are so happy that we chose Dan to do the job. Dan also did one wood panel room with a pickle stain and it turned out great! We would absolutely work with Dan on future projects."

"They did a terrific job. Arrived promptly, covered everything before beginning to remove the wallpaper. Sanded and smooth the walls before painting so no bumps would show. When they were finished cleaned up the area. Would recommend them to friends."

"First they videoed our roof. Showed where problems existed and explained how the would enhance or rain run off. When the began work they made sure our shrubs and decks were protected. The crew worked hard and efficient. My entire roof was striped and prepared for the new shingles in one day. They cleaned up at the end of each day and remove trash each day with a portable trash trailer."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Pressure-treated wood lasts at least 10 years, but with the right care and treatment, it can last as long as 40 years. Painting the boards is one way to increase the lifespan of pressure-treated wood. The layer of paint provides extra protection for the wood against the exterior elements and insects.

The need for a topcoat on a painted deck depends on various factors, primarily the type of paint used and your desired level of protection. Many premium deck paint formulations are self-sealing, eliminating the necessity for an additional topcoat. These paints often have built-in additives that substantially protect against moisture, UV rays, and everyday wear and tear.
