"They repainted my shutters and hung up a few shutters that had fallen down. They painted two interior hallways and an interior stairway. They did a perfect job! I plan on hiring them again to do more painting around my house!"

"Mr. Mclain was very courteous, explained exactly what he was going to do. He patched a few places in my kitchen ceiling that had been damaged by water from a roof leak. He prepped the whole kitchen and covered all the counter tops. No mess at all. I love my new clean ceiling. Really brightens up the whole kitchen. Would highly recommend."

Their attention to detail, professionalism, and quality of work were outstanding from start to finish. The fresh paint completely transformed my home and honestly brought it back to life.

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Routine cleaning, sealing/staining, and inspection prolong deck life and appearance.

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.
