We’re local, family-run, and care about your home like it’s our own. No upsells, no shortcuts — just great work, done right.

Q: How do you protect my furniture and floors?
We cover all surfaces, mask off edges, and leave the space cleaner than we found it. Prep and protection are a key part of every job.
Q: What kinds of handyman work do you do?
We focus on light handyman work like minor drywall repair, trim replacement, caulking, minor carpentry, and fixture swaps — perfect for touch-ups or preparing to sell.
Q: Do you charge by the hour or by the job?
Most work is quoted by the job after a quick walkthrough. That way, you know exactly what to expect.
Q: Do you power wash before staining?
Yes — every staining project starts with a proper cleaning. We power wash and allow time to dry before applying stain to ensure the best results.
Q: What stain brands do you use?
We typically use high-quality brands like Sherwin-Williams SuperDeck — but we’re happy to match any brand you prefer.
Q: Can you stain a deck that’s already been painted or stained?
Yes — but it depends on the condition and type of previous coating. We’ll assess your deck and let you know the best course of action.
Q: How long does stain last?
With proper prep and application, you can expect deck and fence stain to last as follows:
Expected Lifespan of Sherwin Williams WoodScapes (Fences):
The durability of WoodScapes depends on the type of stain and environmental factors:
Solid Color Acrylic Stain: Typically lasts 7 to 10 years on vertical surfaces when applied correctly and maintained properly.
Semi-Transparent and Translucent Stains: These offer a more natural wood appearance but generally have a shorter lifespan, requiring reapplication every 3 to 5 years.
Expected Lifespan of Sherwin Williams SuperDeck (Decks):
2–3 years on horizontal surfaces (like decks or steps), due to foot traffic and weather exposure.
Up to 5 years on vertical surfaces (like railings or fences), where wear and tear is less intense.
Longevity depends on: -Surface prep (cleaning, sanding, proper drying)
-Application method
-Number of coats
-Local climate and sun exposure
-Foot traffic
Q: How soon can you start?
We typically book 1–2 weeks out during busy seasons, but give us a call — we may have an opening sooner.
Q: What forms of payment do you accept?
We accept cash, checks, and all major credit cards. You’ll receive a clear invoice through QuickBooks for every job.
Q: Do you require a deposit?
Yes — for most jobs, a 20% deposit secures your spot on our calendar, with the balance due upon completion.
