"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!"

"Ricky and his Uncle Rick are awesome! We had a leak in our roof that was coming through the bedroom ceiling - they were quick to respond and came out on a Sunday to do the work before the next rainfall. They explained everything from beginning to end, and were professional and friendly. I highly recommend them, and will definitely go to them for any future roof repair."

"Jack returned my phone call in a very timely manner. Jack showed up when he said he would. He let me know at the end of each day where we were and what the plan was for the next day. My furnace had died, and all of the pipes inside my mobile home had frozen. I had tried for 4 weeks to get a plumber to come out. Jack did not hesitate. He did a good job, and I would recommend him for plumbing and additions, and he got a really good quote on the roof too."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

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. 

Yes, it is generally a very good idea to seal your deck after pressure washing. Power washing removes not only dirt and debris but also a thin layer of wood, leaving the surface exposed and more susceptible to weathering. Sealing is almost always needed after this process. After a general cleaning, sealing isn't automatically necessary if the existing sealant is still intact. You can test the surface by placing a few drops of water on it. If the water beads up, the sealant is working. If it soaks into the wood, it's time to apply a new sealant. If it has been a few years, it's wise to remove the old sealant, wash the deck, and reseal for maximum protection.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage.
