"The service was scheduled and he requested to change the time till 5pm which I'm not available due t i need to come work. I ask him if he still interested to the job. He told the me "His not interest to the job anymore consider that a life lesson don't be a wise guy to someone, tried someone your age". He was very disrespectful. I won't give him a star."

I specialize on resurface of horse hair plaster. Also, all types of plaster repairs and stucco work. For example, water damage and cracks. My ultimate goal is to have the repair look as though it never occured and original. Additionaly, can install blue board for new walls and ceilings. Lastly, my experience stems from Italy, with over 35 years in the trade. All work is performed by myself, it is never subcontracted to other contractors. If a job is on the larger scale, and help is needed, only professsional and experienced workers are employed. Futhermore, every step of the work performed is done under my supervision.

"Gerry is great. He completely redid three crumbling horsehair plaster closets (walls & ceiling), patched with sheetrock and covered with plaster as smooth as can be. He even did it over a weekend because I needed it done prior to the installation of shelving systems. I could not be more pleased with the quality of his work. A really nice guy who rightly takes great pride in his work."

FAQs for deck staining or painting projects in Lowell, MA

When you paint your deck, you can choose any color, and cleanup is easy, but the paint hides the natural wood grain. Stain, on the other hand, lets the wood grain shine through, but requires more maintenance. The cost to seal a deck is about the same as painting. Consider your personal preferences to see which option benefits you most.

For bare wood or cement decks, you only need to clean the surface before applying the first coat of paint. If you're recoating an existing finish, you'll need to pressure wash the deck to remove chipped paint and debris. Either way, make sure to allow the surface to fully dry before moving forward; otherwise, the finish could peel.

A gallon of paint covers between 125 and 300 square feet, depending on its formula. Since your deck might need two coats of paint, for a standard 300-square-foot deck, you might need two to four gallons. If you're painting a pool deck, keep in mind that the specialized non-slip paint covers less area because the texturized material takes up more space in the can.

Yes, you can paint directly over old deck paint if the existing finish is in excellent condition. You should inspect the surface to ensure there's no cracking, peeling, or chipping before proceeding. If you notice any deterioration, you'll need to remove the compromised paint. Clean your deck thoroughly with a power washer, lightly sand any rough spots, and use the same type of paint to guarantee proper adhesion and long-lasting performance.

Yes, applying a coat of primer before painting your deck is essential unless you're using a combined 2-in-1 formula. Primer enhances the adhesion of the new paint, establishes a moisture barrier, and creates a smooth, uniform surface. Be sure to inspect your deck for any defects or old finishes, and use a high-quality primer to fully prepare the surface for a durable and pristine finish.
