"Wilber and crew were fantastic! Estimate was straightforward, understandable and prompt. Crew was on-time to start the work, brought four people and knocked it out in a day. Three things really stood out: 1. They went out of their way to take exceptional care of our home while doing the work...everything from how they closed doors to how they tarped the entire home from the front door to the room in the back of the house. 2. The quality of the work - the crew was meticulous about cleaning up the walls, ensuring all outlets were removed, mirrors removed, etc. 3. Communication - Wilber was very clear as to how long it would take, exactly how much paint we needed, etc. He checked in with us midway through the day to ensure we saw the first coat and how things were progressing. I would not hesitate to use Wilber Painting again"

"Quality of work appears very good and work ethic of the roofing team was very good -- worked very hard and long hours with few breaks even in high heat and humidity. And the price seemed very reasonable compared to other quotes I received. I would use them again. Only 3 complaints, only the first of which I would consider serious. 1. Scheduling (which I rated above as punctuality, since there was no scheduling category) -- This past spring was a busy time for roofers due to the bad storms, and it was a bit rainy, so I fully understand and appreciate why it took many weeks to get me scheduled. What is unacceptable, though, is that I felt as if I was being misled and strung along regarding the installation date. Specifically, I was initially given an estimated installation date, depending on weather, of about 3 weeks out from when I signed the contract (and sent them a substantial deposit), but I was assured that it would not be any later than one month out. The week before the month was up, I called and was given some reason why it would be another couple weeks. That went by, and then a couple more weeks (at this point weather was fine and no longer an issue), and, then a couple more weeks until finally I blew up and accused them of 'bait and switch' -- I complained that it seemed to me that they had never intended to do my work within a month or even within 2 months of receiving my deposit -- it felt like they were stringing me along rather than giving me a realistic date upfront. A couple days later I got a firm date the following week and the work was done. In all, it was well over 2 months from when I signed the contract until when they installed. 2. Care for my Property -- The method they used for removing the old roof resulted in some minor property damage. Flying shingles damaged two window screens and resulted in some minor marring of the finish on the side of my new deck and on the painted trim on my house, and some slight damage to my mailbox. Not a huge deal. 3. Clean up. For the most part they did a great job cleaning up the high volume of debris. And they did pick up virtually all of the hundreds of nails that came off the old roof. However, they missed a few nails in the driveway (probably that had rolled under their truck) that could have been bad news for my tires had I not been anal about sweeping up after they left."

"It went well. Mario came out promptly to access the damage to my basement and gave me an estimate that was within my budget. The work was scheduled and completed within a week. The guys Antonio and Daniel repaired drywall, baseboards, shoe molding and replaced the vinyl flooring in the bathroom. They also painted two large walls. The guys did an excellent job matching the stain on the shoe molding. And I just love the bathroom floor...what a great job. The job was scheduled to be finished in one day but they had a problem finding the shoe molding that matched. They were back the day and all is well. What a great job guys. I will definitely use their services again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

To make sure the paint won’t bubble as you apply it, make sure to paint on a day that’s cooler than 85 degrees Fahrenheit. When the temperature is too high, the paint won’t dry evenly, which can result in bubbles forming on the surface. Another way to prevent paint from bubbling is to clean the walls, apply primer, and let everything dry completely before you begin.

Whether to paint or stain a deck depends on your personal preference for appearance and budget. Stain provides a natural look with a range of undertones, is typically less expensive, and may only require one coat, but it does not last as long as paint. Paint offers a sleeker finish with a virtually unlimited color palette. Both options will protect your deck from outdoor elements like rain, snow, and general wear and tear.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
