"I was so impressed with Wilber and his employees that in addition to painting our deck, I also hired him to pressure wash our deck and fence, replace the lattice on our pergola, as well as perform some other minor wood work. His responsiveness, quality of work and price were all excellent and would be hard to match. I have already referred him to several others in our neighborhood and look forward to hiring him again in the future!"

"NV Outdoors LLC was one of several companies that I considered to clean, seal, stain and replace 7 damaged wood deck floor boards. An aged 4x4 wood mailbox post and a wind damaged 4x4 wood fence post were included with the work. The owner, Nestor, completed the requested work in an extraordinarily professional manner. He rounded the edges of the replaced deck boards to match the existing boards. That was impressive. Replacing and reconnecting a fence post on an existing fence can be a challenge. The new post had to be exactly vertical and spaced to accommodate a solid reconnect. Another job well done by Nestor. The cleaning, sealing and staining was done with care; and looks great. Nestor is a polite, friendly, true professional, with a caring attitude.. Would I hire NV Outdoors again? Yes!"

"Mario’s crew is very skilled and they work quickly. We have had them complete several projects for us around our house (including major indoor paint work, wallpaper removal, and deck refinishing) and they completed it quickly. We were home during the bulk of the project and I trust his crew on our home without us present. The communication isn’t always the smoothest but don’t let that deter you from hiring this team. You won’t have to worry about any quality issues when they’re responsible for doing the job. We will count on them for every future paint related project."

"We have requested the services of Manor Works painting many times over the years. In fact, they are now our "go to" painting services. In the exterior they have removed wallpaper and painted every room in our house, including moldings, trims, doors. On the exterior they have painted the shutters, doors, and concrete foundation. They performed tremendous paint work on a extremely long fence and our deck. I am sure that we have been working with them well over 20 years. The crew leader and staff are highly skilled and professional."

"We contacted Mr. Sellers, and he gave us advice on how to cover the stain ourselves.  His advice worked perfectly, and he saved us hundreds of dollars.  His willingness to give us free advice, and his subsequent follow up to make sure that we were successful, proves that he actually cares about his customers, whether current or potential.  We will be looking to Mr. Sellers again the next time we need interior painting.

"Kurt was easy to reach via email or telephone. Apprised us of his approach to stripping our deck of its horrible paint coating and was upfront of the general cost during his first visit. He did need to be reminded to provide a specific contract upfront. Otherwise, deck restoration work progressed quickly once weather conditions permitted start and Kurt finished the large project within a few days."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Staining pressure-treated wood is a recommended practice. While inherently resilient, it's not impervious to moisture and UV exposure. Staining treated wood is feasible and recommended for enhanced protection and longevity. Applying stain and sealant safeguards against degradation, prolonging its life span. These measures shield the wood from environmental threats while augmenting its aesthetic appeal, ensuring your investment endures the test of time.

An exterior paint job typically lasts between 5 and 10 years, though this can range from 3 to 17 years depending on several factors. The longevity is influenced by the quality of the paint and primer, the quality of the application, the local climate, and the type of surface being painted. For example, paint on wood siding may need to be redone every 3 to 7 years, while painted brick can last up to 17 years. Aluminum siding often needs repainting every 5 years.

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.
