"Contacted them to by phone on 7/16/21 at about 9:30 am was told the estimators were busy but was asked to send an email of photo's I had of the problem as well as my contact info and estimator would be in touch. I sent email and received a reply from Billing Mgr at 10:02 am. That is the last I heard from them. Ended up getting work done by another company that actually replied back to me (that same day). With all of the other glowing reviews of this company on Angles list, I'm surprised."

Our goal is pass our reputation to our children and to build a company that will be here for generations. Authentic. Local. Passionate. Honest. Affinity for People.

"All of these 5 star reviews got dumped on the Angi page, dated 2/2024. All show shiny basements & what appears to be excellent work & reviews claiming excellent communication. It's how I came about the referral - as well as their Facebook ads. Not sure if they bit off more than they could chew, but communication has been awful if not non-existent. The home visit seemed great! But I had to email them for the quote afterwords. Then a visit to the showroom a month later was dirty, plant dirt lying around, no bathroom available to the customers, giant weeds outside of the building they purchased. If you're presenting yourself as professional contractors, appearance of a showroom where you host customers is a reflection of your work. I didn't hear from them in over 4 wks. I emailed & was met with an excuse & zero delivery of promise for final proposal. We are taking our business elsewhere. We just wasted 3 months for nothing."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Gurnee, IL

Staining a standard 500-square-foot deck takes about 20 hours, including preparation and application. This timeline ensures a thorough job that enhances your deck's appearance and durability. The process will take longer if you include additional treatments like sealing or stripping. Weather conditions, drying time, and deck design will also impact the timeline.

You should stain your deck every two to three years to preserve its appearance and protect it from moisture, insects, and aging. Regular maintenance helps extend your deck’s lifespan and prevents costly repairs. In colder regions, staining in late spring–as soon as dry, warm conditions appear–ensures proper absorption and a long-lasting finish.

Staining your deck is a worthwhile investment. Staining protects the wood from mold, insect damage, and environmental deterioration. It preserves the deck's structural integrity while enhancing its natural beauty, adding charm and increasing property value. Restaining also reduces future repair costs, extending the deck’s lifespan for years of outdoor enjoyment.

The average cost to paint a deck is between $500 and $2,000. Hiring a professional deck stainer ensures an even, long-lasting finish, as they apply a protective layer that enhances durability and refreshes your deck’s appearance. The final cost depends on your deck size, paint quality, and labor rates.

You should always pressure wash your deck before staining to remove built-up dirt, dust, and other debris. Having a clean surface allows the stain to adhere properly, ensuring an even, long-lasting finish. Before staining, ensure the wood is completely dry to prevent moisture-related issues, which takes 24 and 48 hours.
