I had used this company before and even though the price was high I was pleased with the work and follow thru they did when the painter who was originally doing the job had a very bad accident and couldn't finish the job.  A new person was sent out to finish the job and I was pleased. That is why I hired them again.

The work on the deck was done but much slower than it should have been.  The stain ordered was the wrong color and it had to be ordered again and put over the area where the first stain was put.  There was only one man on the job and he had to carry off all the furniture and when the job was done, had to put it back on all by himself.  He was the man who had the bad accident years ago and I felt bad for him.  But I couldn't help as I had knee surgery.  Unfortunately, some of the furniture had to be dragged back on because of it being so heavy and that left dark marks on the deck.  The owner came out several times to look at it and decided that it was mud and that I had to wash it off.  So it was left that way and after buying TSP, I slowly did scrub off the dark marks, bad knee and all.  I wasn't pleased with that as two people should have been on the job.

I would use them again only if the job that needed to be done had the right number of people assigned to do it.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It is definitely worth sanding a deck to ensure the wood absorbs new stain. Sanding a deck removes the outer layers of aging wood, allowing the stain to penetrate. It also gives a fresh look to the entire surface as part of the deck refinishing process. Without sanding, your stain or sealant is less likely to absorb into the wood. While sanding a deck is a time-intensive project, the rewards are noticeable and long-lasting.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces if you apply them correctly. Use on non-suitable surfaces can cause issues. For instance, applying limewash or whitewash to surfaces with existing sealants or incompatible materials may lead to poor adhesion or flaking. Also, harsh cleaning agents on limewashed or whitewashed surfaces can damage the finish. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance ensure that limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces.

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.

The longevity of paint on wood depends on factors like the quality of the paint, surface preparation, exposure to elements, and maintenance. Exterior paint on wood surfaces can last 5 to 15 years or more with proper care and maintenance. Interior paint tends to have a longer life span, often 10 years or more. Regular cleaning, touch-ups, and addressing any issues like peeling or cracking can extend the life of the paint.
