"I would highly recommend this business.  We had them come and restain the deck and at first just powerwash the house.  They scheduled the work right away.  After doing the pressure washing, there were some areas with paint chips under the soffit.  Mike offered to repaint those for free.  During this, they noticed areas of the soffit that were rotten, so we had them repair those areas of the wood.  They also fixed a few screens that were damaged during the pressure washing for free.  
Everything turned out great, and we are very happy we had this work done.  Mike and Crystal are very professional and easy to work with.  I will be having them do some more work on our house in the near future.

"We had some porch / hand rails that were in need of painting and repair. Anthony and Brandon came through, again! This is the second time in less than a month, that I hired these two young men. They repaired my railings, cleaned them and painted them. They did a fabulous job. I said in a previous review, that I would hire them again. They listen to the project, gave a fair price and arrived on time and completed the work. They clean up behind themselves. Highly recommend giving these guys an opportunity."

"We recently finished a project with Loveshade LLC Painting. The level of service is top notch. Meir and his crew not only helped us with painting, but a whole makeover for our AirBnB rental. He and his crew performed many extras, like helping us get a TV mounted on the wall with a swing mount, and refinishing our furniture. Right from the start, he identified areas that needed to be fixed, and gave us a quote with a good price that he stood behind. Being out of town owners, Meir would video chat with us to show progress. My brother lives in the area and stopped by to check on progress, everything is as he promised. We are so happy we have found a business we can trust and look forward to using Meir and his crew again for the future maintenance and upkeep of our apartment. We would suggest Loveshade to anyone."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

A concrete overlay is often the most cost-effective way to resurface a pool deck. To do this, you’ll need to pour a thin layer of concrete over the existing pool deck, which you can customize by stamping or painting. A stamped concrete overlay provides additional traction on a pool deck that can help minimize the risk of people slipping and falling.

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. 

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.
