"I had a drywall disaster one Saturday night. I thought the drywall on the affected wall would need to be replaced. As a matter of fact I was told that much by a very knowledgeable person. So I went to angie’s list with the intention to find a drywall installer. MKD was one of the providers i selected. I did that at about 8 pm on that Saturday night. I then turned on my TV to watch a movie not expecting anything till at least Monday morning. In about 3 minutes I got contacted by MKD and after discussing my options, I was happy to learn that all was not lost and that they could do a miracle saving me from installing new drywall - a 2k endeavor. And guess what, they could do it Sunday morning! Wow. Mario showed up exactly on time. He was very patient and friendly throughout the whole proce . He worked for about 7 hours and did an AMAZING job. I also asked him to touch an area in the kitchen that had bothered me and my wife for months. He took care of that too. We were a very happy family that night indeed. Thank you, Mario!! I’m going to use MKD for all my painting and deywall needs!"

"First of all, we are happy with the finished product of our master bathroom and walk-in closet. We are NOT happy with the owner of this business and his handling of our project. Jeff took time to design our space over several meetings. He promised that he would be available to choose tile/granite/light fixtures/plumbing fixtures whenever we needed him. Timeline was discussed with a 6 week from contract start and a project time of 3 weeks. Permit submission was done by myself with plans drawn by Jeff. We failed the permit process with 14 items that were not addressed due to insufficient drawings. Additional time/effort was required by Jeff and us to meet the requirements to meet code, which pushed our project back several weeks. We also paid more for the project due to Jeff needing to insure his workers for our village (a cost he should have known upfront). With new drawings, we re-submitted and were approved for work to begin. I can't say enough about the FANTASTIC workers that Jeff has on his team. They were courteous and did excellent work and even suggested design modifications that made sense. One of our first tasks was to pick out a granite surface. Jeff gave us the name of a granite place and that he'd meet us there. He NEVER showed. We picked granite on our own that day. We ordered tile - on our own. We chose lighting, plumbing, fixtures, and paint colors - on our own. The next time and ONLY time we saw Jeff for the duration of the project was when he delivered the vanity and asked for money (same visit). The total project ended up taking over three months to complete. Due to various project modifications/additions, we had no idea what our final invoice would be. We waited and waited for some type of final figure. 8 months after the project was completed we finally received a remaining balance invoice for over $11,000. We were shocked to receive this invoice so far after the project was completed. Jeff explained that COVID and not having an office manager were reasons behind us not getting an invoice before then and that we fell between the cracks. While we don't argue the price, we did not appreciate the length of time it took him to get the job done, nor the amount of time before we received a final invoice. When we offered to pay $2,000 each month for the next six months we were sent a very threatening email offering us three options for payment in full NOW. Suddenly this money is due NOW when he has carried this receivable for 8 months already? We will NEVER recommend Artistic Kitchen Concepts (Jeff) to anyone in the future. His involvement in the project started out well, but dropped off to the point where we never saw him, had no further input from him, and didn't receive an invoice until 8 months after the project was completed."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Harvard, 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.
