"I was so impressed with Top of the Line Painting. Weather held up the work for over a week but Matt stayed in touch almost every day. His team came at the designated time and finished staining not only a two-tier deck but also painted the front porch in less than a day. They also pressure-washed the house and it looks beautiful. The work they performed was absolutely professional and I am extremely happy with the job they did. I highly recommend this company!"

"Excellent work and I have high standards! Company was always on time, professional, and friendly. Was shown each day what work was completed and what they’d paint the next day. I would definitely use Strokes of Excellence again and already recommended to friend looking for a painter."

"Let me start off by saying I have never written a review for anything, but Lakeside offers 50 dollars for any review, good or bad, so why not. I'm about as skeptical and stubborn as they come (and proud of it), so when a salesman shows up at my door offering something that sounds too good to be true, normally they would get a no thank you, and have a nice day. Maybe it was I was concerned about the condition of my roof or the thought of protecting and adding value to my biggest investment but for whatever reason when Kevin Cooke showed up at my door saying he could get me a new roof for the cost of my deductible, I was interested (but skeptical). Kevin explained the process thoroughly, and against my better judgement, I took a "chance". Lakeside had their inspector out the next day to look at my roof, I indeed had storm damage and the ball started rolling from there. Kevin again explained the process a few more times to me, and kudos to him for being patient, informative, and not pushy at all. After deciding I wanted to submit an insurance claim, Kevin handled all the heavy lifting with the insurance company. After the adjuster approved a full roof replacement, it was about 2 weeks and work started. As far as the actual roofers (im guessing typical roofing sub contractors), the work looks good, clean up was good, no leaks after a couple storms and comes with a big piece of mind with a 5 yr craftmanship warranty. Only "issue" Id say was I had requested to Tom (project manager) that id rather them leave the rain diverters off as I was going to be installing gutters. They ended up getting put on with the new roof, which wasnt a biggie i figured I could figure out how to take them off myself later, but a week later I got a call checking on how the work and experience was and i meantioned the rain diverters. It wasnt a few hours later Tom himself was at my house to remove them, kudos to him. Really amazing customer service, and I have no fear if a problem ever arises down the road that they will take care of it. Overall very good experience, and I have a brand new, good looking roof all for the price of my deductible, just as Kevin said. My advice for what its worth is dont hesitate to do business with this company, keep an open mind when Kevin or anyone of their other salesman show up at your door, and for Godsakes invite them inside into the AC, unlike me who made poor Kevin sweat to death because of my skeptisim, door to door sales is tough especially when its 100 degrees outside."

"Kyle did an outstanding job painting the interior trim after we just had our floors redone. He also painted an entire wall for us and did an excellent job on that as well. Would hire again without a doubt and would recommend to anyone. Very detail oriented!"

"Anderson Painting is the best! MIkel and team were conscientious, hard working and paid attention to the little details. Showed up when they said they would and stayed until they got the job done. Will definitely recommend them to all my friends and neighbors and will call them again when it's time to repaint the home. Cannot say enough great things about this company."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

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.

Avoid using cleaning products that are abrasive or contain bleach or acidic components on composite decking to avoid discoloration. Early-generation Trex decking isn’t designed to handle pressure washer cleaning—and if you use them on second-generation boards, always use a low setting to avoid the risk of damage that can risk voiding your warranty.

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

In most cases, sanding an old deck before staining it is necessary to achieve a decent finish. If your old deck has a relatively new stain finish on it and you're only doing touch-ups, you can generally skip the sanding part. However, if your goal is to make the deck look and function better, sanding first is a must.
