"Look no further because you have found your painter! We have a 2200 square foot home with vaulted ceilings and Victor painted every room top to bottom in record time. We also had him remove popcorn off the ceilings in a few rooms and they are so smooth now that you would never know. He is diligent, detail oriented, dependable and a great communicator. I would give 100 stars if possible. I highly recommend Victor and have already referred him to many friends."

"Bottom line up front: HQ Builders did an exceptional job constructing our new deck. They were professional, listened to our concerns/comments, and created outdoor spaces we love and will use for decades to come. 1. Mr. Bimberg continuously called to update status (i.e.; scheduling architect, permit, etc.) throughout the construction of our deck. 2. When the exterior stairs per the architect's drawings were not acceptable Mr. Bimberg showed up late on a Saturday afternoon to meet with us and change the stairs. The only cost was for additional materials required. 3. When materials delivered by their supplier were of low quality, they were rejected and new materials obtained. 4. The crews did a good job of managing the stacking of materials so our two greyhounds could use the backyard without difficulty. 5. End of project clean-up was great."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

No, it is not okay to paint over rotted wood. Painting over rotted wood will not address the underlying issue and can trap moisture, leading to further decay. Properly addressing the rotted wood by removing and replacing or repairing the damaged areas is necessary before you can even consider painting.

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

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.

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.
