"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.

"Tony and Brandon were awesome to work with. These guys came by as scheduled and gave me an estimate for the work requested. We scheduled a date for the job. These guys were on time and worked hard to complete the job on time. They cleaned up behind themselves. I would highly recommend these young men. I look forward in sending more handy man jobs their direction."

"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

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.

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.
