"AMAZING!! Troy and Lori do amazing work. I have used Troy for internal painting a year ago and this was a massive job to paint outside of house, tiki hut, multiple decks, boat dock and more than 50 steps! They communicate well, show up on time and do amazing work."

"MasterFix replaced my upper deck in one day. They are very thorough in explaining the process and they picked out and delivered all the materials. The process was excellent. They arrived on time and cleaned up afterwards. I am very satisfied with the service and price. Will definitely use again. Thank you."

"Jhon and the team were very professional, from setting up the project, to careful completion. Very competitive pricing. This was an exterior porch painting project, with white railings, posts, and skirt lattice, and red flooring and lower trim. They did a very clean painting, with excellent coverage. I would hire again, for either exterior or interior projects."

"Carlos and his crew were very professional, clean, on time and did an outstanding job on the interior painting. All of them were very courteous and go the extra step to please their customer. Definitely I would hire them again to do some more painting on my exterior of the home. Great job guys, it was my pleasure interacting with you. Gene"

"They did what they said they would and were not difficult or unpleasant, but stains did not come out and the odor we were hoping it would remove didn't get removed. They kept trying to sell us extra deodorizing for more than the cost of the cleaning."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

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.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

You may be wondering: can you paint cement? Fortunately, the answer is yes.

To change the color of your cinder blocks, you have two options. You can either paint them or stain them. Either way, you'll be able to choose from a wide range of color options. Some popular colors for cinder block painting include off-white shades and gray tones, which add a modern spin to the traditional gray blocks.
