"Pressure washing went fine (missed a section). Painting ok but did not prep like promised. Re-caulking was not done. Screw holes left by previous gutters etc. were not filled but just painted over. Contract said 2 coats of paint but only got one (no back roll but was not in contract). No crew but only 1 man (he was fast - painted house and trim in 2 days). House was decent but trim was a bit sloppy (not clean lines, trim paint drops on deck steps etc.). All in all, B- to B."

"Outstanding service & workmanship from start to finish - my home looks beautiful!! 
 I chose O'Shea's LLC as a local operation with consistent A ratings on Angie's List (with 31 great reviews in last 2 yrs) - plus a 10% discount coupon. I submitted a scheduling request thru Angie's List & literally within 2 minutes received a phone call back from CEO Jeff Bauer. Wow, impressive!! (Knows how to leverage technology too).
Jeff was thorough & helpful during appt. I knew the job would not come cheap, but he worked with me to bring down original estimate by at least 25% (by opting to not paint concrete retaining walls separate from house, ceiling in carport, or hidden beams on underside of balcony etc & by minimizing use of accent colors). Also very helpful with colors & types of paint & stain used.
I was flexible about when to start, but Jeff paid attention to weather & had his staff out here at 1st sign of perfect stretch of weather. His painting staff were superb! Courteous, quiet, & expert at their work, not a drop of spilled paint, everything done with mathematical precision. Not used to seeing people take such pride & care with their work - these guys were masters at their craft. They also worked incredibly hard - pressure washed on Monday, 2 days to dry (when cloudy), then painted Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun, finishing up with doors & trim on Mon. 
Even the one small error that occurred was handled with courtesy & professionalism (small length of fence mistakenly partially stained). No problem - Jerry said he'd fix it or replace the fence - but pressure washing took care of it just fine (to be followed up with transparent stain later)
Wow, I love my home!!  Way beyond what I expected or even envisioned - colors are perfect, workmanship is flawless, plus great customer service from start to finish. We should all support excellent local businesses like this.
Many thanks to Jeff & O'Shea's LLC, his great staff & Angie's List (I never would have found them without Angie)!

"Vadim and his crew love their job and they are great at it. They painted our whole house and deck in 3 days including all prep. They filled all the cracks in the wood and the finished job looks fantastic. It sets our house apart from all others on the street. Competitive price but a bargain for the high quality job they did."

"Christian and Nico were very professional and courteous. They worked out an awesome price as I wanted pressure washing done and upgraded paint. They did a phenomenal job and our house looks great. They were under other estimates I received and had our 1800 sf house done in less than a day and half. Iâ ve received several good comments from neighbors and already gave 2 referrals. AWESOME job ! Would definitely hire again."

"Steve has gained a lifetime customer. I had 2 bedrooms , 13 door trims and floor trim all through the house painted. He is very meticulous, courteous and helpful. He is willing to take that extra step if necessary to make sure the work is done properly.He always keeps you updated throughout the process. I also had the railing on our outside deck, the fascia boards, window trim and front door painted. I had shared a color with Steve that I wanted the trim and fascia boards painted in and he said "Can I be honest your selection is just ok, because you want contrast and this color doesn't pop. It is your house but I think you can find something that would look better". I took his advice to heart and he was right I chose a beautiful red and we are so so happy with it. Once I have pictures I will add them. I had discussed with him at one point of possible painting our dark cabinets in the kitchen white and he told me he would not do it because they are nice. He said yes he could make good money doing the job, but no it would be a waste of my money, that is honesty!. Thank you Steve for your professionalism I know it is important to you and you work reflects that."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

Ultimately, overapplication of stain can compromise the deck's appearance, durability, and longevity. It may result in an uneven finish, with excess stain pooling, dripping, or drying into thick patches. It can also obscure the wood's natural grain and texture, detracting from the desired aesthetic. Moreover, excessive staining may not fully penetrate the wood, leading to poor adhesion and premature wear. Additionally, thick layers of stain are prone to peeling, cracking, and blistering as they struggle to bond with the surface. 

There are deck restoration products and oil-based wood stains that can help bring back some of the color and shine to your faded Trex decking. However, if your boards are suffering from serious fading due to UV rays or chemical cleaning products, don’t expect miracles. Also, these products are only suitable for use on the older Trex boards, not the capped, second-generation Trex products. 

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.
