"MQ did a great job on this multi project job. They always showed up early and worked hard throughout the day. The project was completed very timely. They painted all the kitchen cabinets (changing stained finish to a beautiful rich paint color), all the trim and doors on the first floor and all other cabinets on the first floor, as well as the walls in two rooms. If there was ever a question about anything, Victor asked before proceeding. They carefully moved furniture and nick-knacks, and covered surfaces to protect from overspray. MQ left the work area clean and tidy each day before leaving. In 2019, MQ painted the entire exterior of our home and installed all new gutters. They also removed wallpaper, textured walls and painted the second floor. We loved the finished product this time and back in 2019, and highly recommend MQ for your projects!"

"Seal & Appeal crushed it for us. They built our deck and privacy fence and it came out awesome. We ended up calling them back to repaint the house, and while they were here they noticed our gutters had some pretty bad storm damage from last year. They handled that too and it was way cheaper than another quote we got. Super easy crew to work with and really flexible when we had to move things around on our end. Overall just a really solid experience would definitely recommend them to anyone."

"Henry is very professional and knowledgeable. He did an awesome job on my deck. It was not a straight up build out. There were some issues with leveling the deck. It was not an issue with Henry. I would recommend H and K for any home project."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, it is important to wash your deck before painting to ensure the paint applies well and adheres properly. While you don't have to use a pressure washer, it is one of the most efficient cleaning methods. Pressure washing can quickly remove dirt, wood fibers, and flaked paint, getting deeper into the wood than manual scrubbing. You can also clean the deck with a stiff broom and a cleaning solution. Regardless of the method, a clean surface is essential for good paint adhesion. Make sure the deck is completely dry before applying any paint.

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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. 

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.
