"Older homes beware!!! They used a high-pressure power washer at close range on my historic, wooden windows. This not only severely damaged all of my windows (damaged wood, cracked panes) but also had lots of water intrusion inside my home. The extent of the damage continues to escalate months later, with interior paint chipping and mold growing in window crevices and interior walls. When I notified them of the damage they downplayed it and blamed me for "agreeing" to power washing. I agreed to a light washing and told them to be careful. They even power washed my attic ventilation windows, causing tons of water intrusion in the attic as well! They caused lots of damage and stress and still pressured me to pay full price. I had to aggressively haggle them down for a discount but less than 5 months later paint is already chipping and the damage from the water intrusion is more evident. I should have opened an insurance claim and not paid them anything! They are not pros!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Applying too much sealer to a deck might seem like extra protection, but it can cause more harm than good. Wood is a porous material with a limited capacity to absorb liquids. When you go overboard with sealer, the excess can't soak in and instead forms a film on the surface. This leftover layer is prone to peeling, cracking, and trapping moisture, ultimately defeating the purpose of sealing in the first place. 

Limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces if you apply them correctly. Use on non-suitable surfaces can cause issues. For instance, applying limewash or whitewash to surfaces with existing sealants or incompatible materials may lead to poor adhesion or flaking. Also, harsh cleaning agents on limewashed or whitewashed surfaces can damage the finish. Proper preparation, application, and maintenance ensure that limewash and whitewash do not harm surfaces.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years

Acrylic paint is one of the best types of paint to use on your home's exterior. It's a durable paint that is also heat- and cold-resistant. While oil-based paint is also durable, it's prone to fading,  making it not as good of an option if you live someplace with extremely high heat. In colder regions, oil-based and alkyd paints become more viscous, which makes it harder to apply the paint.

Both sealing and staining can help make your deck look better almost immediately. However, deck stain may not contain waterproofing components, leaving the surface vulnerable to moisture damage. To protect your deck from winter weather, apply a sealer or a stain-and-sealer combination product.
