"Omar and his crew did much more work than interior painting, I could only submit 1 answer. They professionally prepped and painted the exterior of my very big,- very old Folk Victorian home, they removed and replaced my attic insulation, replaced entire house ceiling with shiplap, added a new exterior door to access my utility room, installed new kitchen counter tops, butcher block island top, brick back splash, new kitchen sink, and much more. These guys are extremely talented, they stayed on schedule the entire project. The attention to detail is admirable! Omar is a man of his word and was always willing to go the extra mile every single time I threw a change or update to the plan! I highly and confidently recommend Omar and his crew for any project no matter how big or small."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

You don’t necessarily have to remove all the old paint before repainting your deck, but it’s best to remove as much as possible to ensure a smooth and long-lasting finish. Prioritize scraping off loose, peeling, or flaking paint, and sand down rough areas to create a smooth surface for the new paint to bond with.

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.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Costs depend on coating type, labor, site preparation, and required finishes.
