"Excellent craftsmanship and results. This crew knows their business- the Owner is on the site, makes recommendations that we never thought of, then ensures that the surface preparation is purrrrfect.... Next comes the multi-step application of only premium coating materials- each applied with painstakingly precision. we are 100% happy with the Feria Crew and will continue to go to them for our painting and coating needs. I simply can’t explain what a fantastic transformation took place in this garage... it’s now a showplace. My $0.02."

"The job went great. We have an entrance to the bedroom from a back porch so the painters did not have to go through any other part of the house. They did not leave any thrash laying around and were very neat. I would highly recommend them to anyone else. We had another contractor bid the job and the prices were comparable. We chose Brad because he looked more professional.

"Curtis Clemons is great. Right on time and good quality work. When I needed them, he kept in touch with me and got the job done. I asked them to do additionally in another room and there was just a very small fee for that. We already had the paint, but it was next to thing. It was just a strip of wood in one of the other bedrooms. There weren't additional fees for the room that we asked them to paint. They're A plus. For quality of work, A plus. For responsiveness, definitely A plus. Professionalism is very much A. I'll absolutely use them again."

"After purchasing the deal on Angie's List, I contacted the owner. She was helpful and friendly and we agreed on a start date. It turned out that more paint was needed. I have moved out of state, so she went to buy more paint. That was very helpful.
She sent me pictures of the finished rooms, and they look really good. She also made suggestions for future improvements.
Since the work was finished, I have tried multiple times to contact her (phone and text) to complete the porch area. Because I have not received any response, I have no choice but to reduce her responsiveness and overall grade. Otherwise, I would have given her an A.

"The day the deck was completed, we had rain--and rain the next several days.  This is not good for fresh sealer.  Ronnie came out and did the deck over again at no charge (which I rejected and included a bonus to him for the extra effort).
He removed the patio furniture and put it back.  He communicated openly about what he could and could not do.  
Ronnie is a very honest man who does great work.  I enthusiastically endorse his work."

"When it comes to working with contractors ?getting the job done? isn?t the only thing I?m concerned about. I decided to work with
?Pro-Install? after my friend and co-worker had recommended them to me. I needed my bathroom tiles replaced and was hoping to add/correct a few other features.
The first thing I noticed while talking to Sam Howard, the owner of ?Pro-Install?, was his upbeat and positive attitude toward
the job and his sense of enthusiasm to help me out as well as his respectful and polite language. 
The ?Pro-install? team members were very punctual, dependable, and trustworthy, showing up according to the appointment time even if I was at work and if there was ever a problem, I was notified.
After I explained to them that my budget was limited but there were other things I hoped to get done, they went through a
lot of trouble getting everything done, as I wanted, under the budget that I could afford.
As an artist, I can get quite picky about what I like and I want! Sam took a lot of time out of his schedule to find a tile that
I liked, that had some colors and textures that I was hoping to find in a tile and even drove to my work to make sure it is what I like before ordering it.
After the job was done, they made sure to clean the work areas and dispose all construction materials thoroughly. ?The
Pro-Install? team members are absolute professionals at their work and conduct and it has been a pleasure working with them. I have since burdened them with a few other projects and I do recommend them to others as well!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

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.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.
