"Jesse did a wonderful job with my house. The color was exactly what I wanted due to his thorough questions. All rotted wood was replaced and all trim was painted. He even painted my doors. The house looks like new again and in only two days."

"These folks do a wonderful job. They done several projects for us and we just hired them to complete another exterior painting job that will involve repairing some wood trim prior to painting. Based on past performance I expect we'll have the same top quality work as before. All of the folks we've dealt with have be super helpful, courteous, and professional. Would definitely hire them again."

"Joey is awesome! He is professional, honest, dependable and a super nice guy. The same goes for his crew. They did several jobs for me to include: staining my front door, concrete porch, fence, deck, benches and tables. They also power washed my deck and screened porch. Joey was always available when I called or texted. He and his crew were punctual and worked continuously only to break for lunch. He was determined to complete all jobs to my satisfaction. If you’re in need of a great painting company, I highly recommend Joey Cortez and Alamo City Painting."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Yes, pressure-treated wood can occasionally turn green due to certain preservatives, such as copper-based chemicals, used during the treatment process. These chemicals react with the wood, creating a greenish tint. The good news? It's temporary, and the color will fade over time. Staining or painting can also help hide any unwanted hues.
