"We were selling our house and the entire interior needed a paint refresh as it had been over 5 years since it was done. We also had some small wall repairs that needed done and he did a fabulous job in completing all of the work in the time frame we needed. After that work was done we needed an “emergency” repair job in laundry room/living room and we knew we could count on him to get the job done and done correctly, knowing the next owner would not have to worry about out any issues. He was a pleasure to work with and when we need help in the future we will definitely reach out to him. Definitely would refer him."

"The process was pretty seamless and straightforward. The only issue was that the only person we could verbally communicate with was the site leader who did not stay onsite. The painters themselves did not speak English and communicating as a mime was not very efficient....Overall the job was done and done well. Would still consider them again."

"We are so happy with KMG restoration! We had the project of painting a bedroom and repairing some drywall holes, due to too many children! Lol. They were very professional and started the same day. They finished quickly but totally paid attention to detail. I have painted every room in my house and I’m a horrible painter. After seeing a professionals work, I see how horrible I really am! Lol. The paint is on so smooth and uniform throughout, and I can’t tell at all where any damage used to be. We’ll definitely use them again! Thank you so much! So quick and easy."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint. 

Beyond liquid rubber, homeowners can use sealants, stains, membranes, or tapes as waterproofing options. Oil-based or water-based sealants soak into the wood, creating a moisture-resistant barrier. Waterproofing stains—available in transparent, semi-transparent, and solid colors—add both protection and style to your deck. For heavy-duty waterproofing, deck membranes and waterproof tapes can be applied under the deck boards to direct water away from the structure below. Whatever method you choose, clean and prep the deck first to ensure the best, longest-lasting results.

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.

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.

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.
