"Tom did a great job on multiple projects at my house. He replaced the pump in my well, fixed multiple plumbing leaks, sealed and corrected my basement walls and painted the outside block. All work was done in a timely manner. Tom and his crew have exceeded my expectations."
"Excellent painter, quick and detail oriented. I trust them in my home and my rental property. Has also done contractor work from kitchen, bathroom, roof, gutters, plumbing and electrical. You will be happy with his workmanship."
"I only use James when I need some work done to my house. He responds fast, gets the work done quicker than just about anyone else I've ever used and seems very concerned with leaving his customers happy."
"Jobs (2 decks and remodeled bathroom walls) were done right without any re-work. Is extremely customer service focused, and very good about communicating back in forth - this is an important attribute to me given how many times I’ve been ghosted by other contractors. Is very, very cost competitive, and is honest about his schedule availability to get to your work - another great thing about Drew. He also replaced 13 windows for us and we experienced all of the above qualities from Drew. I will absolutely hire him again."

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.
The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.
Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.
There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.
