"I recently had the pleasure of working with Reyes LLC for a remodeling project in my home, and I couldn't be happier with the results! From start to finish, Terry was professional, efficient, and incredibly skilled. We wanted to add some beams and redo the ceiling and crown molding, and he exceeded our expectations in every way. The craftsmanship on the wood beams is stunning, and they seamlessly integrated them into our existing space. The attention to detail and quality of work were top-notch. Communication was excellent throughout the project. They kept us informed at every step and were always available to answer any questions we had. The project was completed on time and within budget, which was a huge relief. I highly recommend Reyes LLC to anyone looking for high-quality remodeling work. They truly transformed our home, and we couldn't be more pleased with the outcome. Thank you for making our vision a reality!"

"Nick did a great job painting . He was very professional and made sure everything was protected with drop cloths before he started painting. If I ever need any more painting done I will be using Black Spruce Painting. Well worth the money."

"Jody was extremely communicative and inspected all work as it was being completed. We ran into some snafus with some wallpaper removal and Jody never seemed frustrated and was always respectful- and to be fair- it WAS super frustrating. We will use them again and always recommend them!"

"Rick installed a new metal roof on a large barn. He went over and beyond in not only installing the roof, but also securing old supports that have saved the barn. Rick and his crew are professional and did the job in a very clean and timely manner."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

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.
