"We're very impressed with Jonathan, Manny and Daniel! Jonathan represents JL Cleaning with great integrity! The crew did excellent work and took on some extra related jobs at our request without batting an eye. Yes, it added reasonable charges, but saved us from the DIY pain. Also, the crew worked together so well. We will definitely be requesting bids from JL Cleaning, LLC on future projects!"

"Elias Contruction provided a detailed estimate after inspecting the roof and making some qualified recommendations. The project required a few change orders that were not clarified in writing. I would recommend hiring Elias if you get changes in writing. They cleaned up pretty well although they missed a few things due to finishing in the dark. Overall satisfied with the job and cost was 60% of other bids due to sheathing adjustment."

"I had Tri-Cities Staining out to stain my fence a couple years ago and it still looks great! They use very high quality products, understand the nuances of exterior wood treatment and have excellent customer service. All that at a very reasonable price!"

"These guys were absolutely great! I’m pretty picky and they exceeded my expectations. I had the exterior of my home painted last week and it looks fabulous. They caulked, caulked, and then caulked some more. The trim and ceiling lines were very clean. House was sprayed and back rolled (the proper way to do it). The whole crew was very friendly and trustworthy. I had some small plants started near the house and they didn’t accidentally step on a single one, even I stepped on one a few weeks ago. When it was time for the final walkthrough, there was one tiny little spot they missed, that’s it. I would absolutely recommend them to anyone and if I ever need to have paint done again, this is who I would hire. Quality work is hard to come by these days, and they are top notch."

"Our 20 yr old north facing, 90 ft long cedar fence needed 16 bracing posts because a snow storm and a recent strong wind had weakened the original posts. After installing the new solid cedar posts, the area cleared of excess soil and empty cement bags, the small red lava rock was repositioned around the new posts. Everything was accomplished to our satisfaction by the professional, hard-working, pleasant employees. Now our fence should not fall over into our neighbor's backyard access roadway!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Deciding whether to stain or paint a pool deck depends on your budget, desired look, and the deck's material. Both options can work. Paint offers a wider variety of color options, provides excellent water resistance, and can last longer. However, it requires a primer and can eventually fade or peel. Stain is often cheaper, easier to apply, and penetrates the wood for a more natural look and longer-lasting finish. It also has great water resistance. The downsides are fewer color options and the need for a sealant. The choice can also depend on the deck material; for example, staining may be a better option for concrete as it bonds well and lasts longer than paint.

Adding a second coat of stain to wood can even out the color to some extent, but it won't drastically alter the hue if the initial application is too light or too dark. It's more effective at enhancing the richness of the color rather than significantly changing it. Ensure the first coat is dry before applying the second.

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. 

If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.
