"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"

"It went very well. They came and pressure washed the whole house. Took down the rain gutters and masked everything and put two coats to paint on the house and the deck. They did a wonderful job. They were very professional and very nice to work with."

"Overall, very well. Beautiful work on shrubs. The stream bank and bridge repair task was very labor intensive and was impacted by bouts of bad weather, but the final product was very good."

"We were very pleased with the work and the work ethic of Sandy and Keyenne.  They were prompt, friendly, efficient, and kept the mess to a minimum, plus I liked their music.!  Sandy has a great eye for color and gave some wonderful advice when we were discussing color choices.  She suggested accent wall color and colors above/below chair rail to make it "pop"!! And she was right!  We are very happy with the end results.

"AMAZING landscaping!! Our flower bed was pretty rough before these guys got ahold of it and honestly we thought they’d turn us away because our flowerbed was so unmanaged. They came out on Monday at 6:30pm, gave us a free quote, and had the job done literally the next day before 4. We were pretty shocked at how quickly they got it done because of how bad of a condition it was in AND by how clean and professional looking it was when It was finished. Looked like a 3 day job instead of a few hours job, not even kidding. Would definitely hire again and honestly will probably be the only landscapers we will deal with here. 12/10 quality of work and 100/10 for the value!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

There are more pros than cons when staining a deck. Deck stain is more affordable than paint, it protects the wood and allows the natural textures to shine through, and it can revive the appearance of your home. However, deck stain also requires prep work (sometimes days or more), carries more upkeep than a painted deck, and can fade over time if not cared for. 

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

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.

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.
