"CAE replaced exterior cedar siding and painted. I have used multiple contractors and remodeling pros over the last 10 years, and CAE topped them all. The prices are fair and the work was top quality. They were courteous, professional, and always on time every morning. They didn't try and increase the price after the initial quote even though they performed work outside of the agreement. They cleaned up after themselves each day and even pressure washed the driveway after the project was complete. Terrific experience!"

"We consulted Angie's list after seeing CertaPro in our neighborhood, and were responded to right away with a quote directly from the owner. We scheduled the work, and looked in on the project several times a day during the 3-day job. The workers, the quality of the painting and materials, and CertaPro's follow-up was so good that we plan to have them do similar work on our residence later this year. Their quote was competive, their workers were excellent, their responsiveness was superior to any other company we contacted."

"I couldn't be more pleased with the work done by Hondupaint! Alex is a delight, vastly knowledgeable, and a true "go-getter" which is a rare find in this day and age. His employees are lovely and professional. They arrive on-time or early and get straight to work--and their work is extraordinary. I look forward to using Hondupaint for future projects and recommend them to anyone. DIY painting is tedious, messy, and exhausting. Do yourself a favor and let Hondupaint take care of your home improvement projects for you."

"So pleased with the whole experience. I was moving in to a "new" house which was decorated in colors not of my taste. I found Riggins Painting on Angie's List and hired them. The reviews were correct. These guys were great. Austin came out to walk the house with me and the painters started a couple of days later. There was a little hitch on the first day but the crew worked through the weekend to make sure that my finish deadline was met. They were so accommodating with a special request that I had and when it turned out that there was additional unplanned work to do and when I decided on the last day that I hated the bathroom color and asked them to redo it in another color. The crew was great. So polite, so easy to work with. I will definitely use them again when I do the rest of the house."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

DIY staining or painting is manageable with proper preparation, including safety measures, necessary tools, and adherence to safe weather conditions for application.

The staining or painting process involves cleaning the deck, sanding surfaces, applying a primer (if needed), and carefully applying stain or paint for an even, lasting finish.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

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.
