"Dominik and his team provided exceptional customer service and completed a really tricky paint job of a 1906-year old houseâ s front porch in late November, just before the first big snow! They broke up the tasks so the job could be safely and effectively completed, considering we had some nice weather, followed by a snow storm, then two nice days. The quality is the best Iâ ve ever seen, absolutely perfect! The wood was rotting and there was so much paint chipped and peeling, but Dominik and his crew cut new wood for the base of the columns and scraped the old paint (from 1999!) so thoroughly. The porch now looks stunning! I will definitely hire this crew in the Spring to finish the rest of my houseâ s exterior."

"I hired Henry Pedaza of J.M.P. to build a fireplace surround and mantel. This was a relatively straightforward project. Because I had the oak wood, I provided the majority of the wood, he only had to provide the mantel shelf...which was cut too shallow, so there is a 1/2 gap where the shelf meets the wall. He literally cut and nailed up 7 pieces of trim board, filled the seams with putty and was done. I showed him my concerns, and we agreed he would come back the next day to tweak his work to my satisfaction and complete another small task, the baseboard. He did not sweep, nor pick up the scrap wood or anything. I paid him (like a fool --$950.00!!!) and of course, you guessed it, he did not show up the next day or next or next. I called, texted left messages and no reply. I was wrong to pay him before being satisfied,(my bad) but I trusted him. PLEASE DO NOT HIRE THIS MAN!! HE DEFINITELY SCAMMED ME!!!"

Deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seals FAQs

You should clean your deck before sealing it. Cleaning before refinishing is critical. If you don’t remove dirt and debris, you'll trap moisture in the wood, which prevents the new sealer from working correctly and can lead to costly repairs. Whether you need to sand, power wash, or sandblast depends on your deck's condition.

Sealing and staining your deck are essential maintenance methods that protect and beautify your outdoor space. Stain adds rich color and guards against fading, while sealant fortifies the wood against moisture and weather damage. Wood type, climate, deck age, and the degree of existing damage determine whether your deck benefits from one or both treatments. Using both options extends your deck’s durability and enhances its overall appearance.

Power washing and sealing your deck costs $500 to $1,700. This process combines the removal of stubborn dirt and debris with a protective seal that preserves the wood’s integrity. Effective cleaning eliminates harmful buildup, and a proper seal prevents moisture damage and wood decay, ensuring long-term durability and reducing future repair expenses.

Your deck must be sealed every one to three years to maintain its strength and appearance. Regular sealing is essential to protect the wood against moisture, mold, and harmful UV rays. A consistent sealing schedule prevents rapid deterioration and costly repairs. Inspections should be performed annually to determine if the protective layer remains intact, extending the life of your deck.

Leaving your deck untreated compromises its structural integrity and safety. An unprotected deck rots quickly due to moisture and environmental exposure, which means that neglecting sealing results in rapid decay and expensive replacement costs of $4,125 to $11,650. Sealing your deck is essential for maintaining its durability and protecting your home.

The sealant on your deck dries within a few hours and reaches full cure within 72 hours before regular use. It is essential to wait until the complete curing period to ensure the protective layer fully sets and resists weather and foot traffic. Proper drying guarantees that your deck is fully protected against moisture and environmental damage, ensuring lasting quality.
