"From the first call I made… until the last stroke of the paintbrush, Jose and his team delivered EXCELLENCE! I was nervous about having to move everything and Jose quickly calmed my anxiety by saying “WE WILL MOVE EVERYTHING!!!!”They were attentive, KNOWLEDGEABLE, meticulous, and truly patient with every request. Their skill level is exceptional. They were thorough and fast, a few days later, they had completed each task by doing exactly what they promised, immaculate and to perfection with a 100% guarantee!!! They removed my belongings with care, covered them, primed, painted/stained and then placed all of our furniture back in place with great care when they were done. My walls, trim, ceilings, doors and flooring, (yes I got new carpet too) all look like we’ve moved into a brand new house. My home looks amazing and I have received so many compliments. Beautiful job! I will definitely be using them for ALL of my housing needs."

"The 3 man crew did excellent work for us. Marcos actually came out on the Fourth of July as we asked to give us our estimate! They did a fast and neat job painting two colors on the outside and trim on our older one and a half story home which required a good power washing first. We took up Marcos' recommendation on the window and corner trim paint application and it made our house look so much nicer. For a moderate charge they also power washed our hardscape and replaced a rickety deck step with a strong, well built, and much safer one. During the course of their work in the searing July heat , a Thursday and Friday, we asked about an additional sheetrock repair in our kitchen area. We are still amazed looking at it how the well the The Wizards of all sheetrock repairers installed the patch and matched the wall paint and texture exactly to what was there. Admirably skills which made us very happy. Our place was all spruced up in time for a quickly planned outdoor micro wedding ceremony for a family member. Thank your Marcos and team. We are glad it was you who responded to our online request. We will look M&G Painting up for our next project."

"Am getting a home reasy for resale. He Returned my call right away. Scheduled meeting. Showed up. We haggled ove the price. We scheduled the work. I gave him partial upfront for supplies. The work was acceptable but not spectacular. I had asked him to remove all brackets, clips etc. that had added up over the years and he didn't. Not all holes were patched. They painted by hand and spray. Some over spray on pool deck and plants. He hand painted a 20' section of wrought iron fence which was well done. There was some paint spots on the lawn. I thought we agreed to a much lower price (his accent threw me). He wrote his estimate down in his notebook so I paid him what he had written."

"Garza's Services recently did some remodeling in our home. Monica addressed any questions I had regarding the estimate appointment, even during a weekend call. Jessie met with me for the estimate, and was able to point out some items that I had not noticed. He listened to what I needed done and was very thorough on how they planned on accomplishing my goals. The price was very reasonable. Jessie and his 1-2 man team showed up on time everyday, got right to work and worked anywhere from 8 to 10 hour days. We had drywall floating, taping, and texturing on all the interior walls, interior painting on all interior walls, and they stained and installed wood baseboards throughout my entire home. Jessie and his team were able to match the new texturing to my existing texturing to the point where I am not able to tell any difference. No other previous contractor was able to accomplish this (I've had this work done twice before). They also took care of some minor details that I had forgotten about without me having to ask them, which was a pleasant surprise! Jessie was onsite everyday from beginning to end, except when needed to to make a run for extra materials. The job was completed days ahead of schedule, and the quality of work is very good. My wife and I will highly recommend them (already have) and they are very trustworthy. You won't be disappointed."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

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.

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.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

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.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface.
