"Excellent. We were very impressed that Matt & his team came out one day, pressured washed the house and then returned the next day to paint the house-twice. They masked the windows (now we know what it feels like being on the inside of a fish tank) and cleaned up after. Matt was very knowledgeable about cedar sided homes and painting with a solid wood stain. Would I hire him again-yes."

Everything Geoff promised that would be done was done in the time frame he quoted and at the price he quoted, which was great! I will definitely use him and his crew for my next painting project!"

"We are very happy with the work that was done on our home and would not hesitate to use them again. In addition to painting our house, they repaired our deck and rebuilt our dock. All the work was top notch and the site was cleaned after the work was completed."

"all of the work was done in 2.5 days. very professional crew, equipment and truck. they cleaned up after everyday. they even brought in excess paints and stains from previous jobs to stain my privacy fence and deck, something that I was not charged for. I went with 3 quotes but for the work needed these guys had the best price."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ideally, it's best to stain your dock once per year. Applying stain doesn't just keep it looking nice and new; it also helps extend the dock’s lifespan. Since you want to ensure water levels are at their lowest, it's best to have this project done by a professional dock repair service in the cooler autumn or early winter months. 

The opposite is actually true: Wood stains tend to appear lighter when they’re fully dry. However, stains may darken as they weather and oxidize with age. Stains might also darken on surfaces left in direct sunlight, as UV rays can break down pigment particles and cause them to darken over time.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

If you have wood decking, there are several common deck problems that you might encounter. For example, your natural wood boards may fade over time due to things like sunlight, weather, and debris. On top of that, some types of wood decking can rot, grow mold, and attract destructive pests—including termites, carpenter ants, and woodpeckers.
