Customers say: Quality work

"Roman did a great job painting our house. We needed a lot of "touch up" painting due to contractor work that damaged our siding. Roman caulked everything, painted it, and took time to make sure it all looks great. We ended up having to paint a much larger section because the pain had faded. But Roman figured out how to solve that problem and it looks really good. It took longer than he had expected, but he stuck to his original quote. I'd highly recommend Roman."

He pressure washed and repaired the deck and stairs as well as advise me in the choices and quality of the stain that he applied. I have another project scheduled with him later this Fall and one yet to be scheduled next Summer. He is helpful in assessing all of the options available which helps moving forward in confidence with a project."

"Crossroads Painters did a wonderful job washing and painting my home! Sonny and his crew were professional, efficient, and skillful. The job was competitively priced and worth every penny. There was clear communication throughout the process and every detail was carefully seen to. They?ll be my first choice when I?m ready to have the interior done :)"

"I received a call with a more than reasonable quote within hours of sending a request. I orignally painted the wall myself, ran out of paint, bought the wrong color, and made a mess of the wall. Someone was here 5 days later to complete the job and made it so my mess up didn’t happen. Professional, kind, great price, even greater work. The photo doesn’t do it justice because I have poor lighting in the room that makes it look strange, but they did an incredible job with what I had given them"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

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. 

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

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.
