"It went ok. Workers were professional and pleasant when performing work. Not always on time as scheduled. Deck maintenance was high quality. Other exterior work appears to be good. Exterior pressuring washing was well done. Expensive."

"I have used JW Home Improvement services for several years and they never disappoint. Pablo Molina and Mario Cortex were true artisans; professional, and meticulous attention to detail in every aspect of the project. They restored my 33-year-old porch to its original state."

"The project was to power wash cedar fence surrounding the property and to power wash the exterior vinyl siding of the house. After power washing, the cedar fence surrounding the property was sealed with Thompson's clear wood seal and white paint was applied to the wood trim on the exterior of the house. Two wood repairs and replacement were made to a door trim and the railing of the front porch steps. The owners Jose Fuentes and Edward Sanchez were absolutely fantastic. Their staff was equally great and I highly recommend this firm."

"Tony power washed and stained the deck and fences as required. He did the work over a 2 weekend period to adjust to changing spring weather conditions which weren't favorable for staining. Tony is a very reliable contractor and I would use his services again for future deck and fence painting."

"Noel was outstanding. He explained things as he worked , neat, and clean too. Everything thing looks nice. I purchased the one person for four hours. My list took a little longer because of some prior improper plumbing installation, but Noel resolved it. I most definitely will us them again."

"I usually have my landscaper, brother or some other random person power wash my deck, rails and pavers. I decided to step it up a notch by hiring a professional. Mel was AWESOME. Contact was swift, bid was fair, scheduling was easy. Most importantly, I cannot believe how much better he did than an “average” person with a power washer. Everything looks brand new. Honestly, I’m shocked. I own several homes and I’m very picky about my contractors. I recommend MEL whole-heartedly. Plus, I love hiring an independent contractor. Good for him for making a business successful. Don’t look any further; Mel is your guy."

"These guys are fantastic! I can not say enough to give them enough praise. I have used them twice now. Once to paint my upstairs (every wall) and then again to paint the formal rooms downstairs (formal living, dining and foyer) and 2 stairways. They are very professional, the owner stopped by several times to check in on the progress and the lead painter made sure we knew what was going on every step of the way and pointed out any issues that may slow them down, presented us options, and had us decide what action was best. We just bought our house and it had many problems with the walls - mostly bad sheet rock tape and a multitude of dents. Our painters fixed it all! We were limited on time, so instead of leaving work undone or requiring another of of work, they brought in a 4th painter and stayed late to make sure everything was done to satisfaction.  At one point, they had started painting one room, and I decided the color I picked out did not work. No problem, no grumbling or complaints, they just moved to another area until I could get a gallon of the new color.  Every time I peeked in on them, not once did I catch anyone resting or slacking off. These are very hard working fellows and very good at what they do.  Professionalism and quality of work at its best.

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Washington DC, DC

You should clean your deck before sealing it. Cleaning before refinishing is critical. If you don’t remove dirt and debris, you'll trap moisture in the wood, which prevents the new sealer from working correctly and can lead to costly repairs. Whether you need to sand, power wash, or sandblast depends on your deck's condition.

Sealing and staining your deck are essential maintenance methods that protect and beautify your outdoor space. Stain adds rich color and guards against fading, while sealant fortifies the wood against moisture and weather damage. Wood type, climate, deck age, and the degree of existing damage determine whether your deck benefits from one or both treatments. Using both options extends your deck’s durability and enhances its overall appearance.

Power washing and sealing your deck costs $500 to $1,700. This process combines the removal of stubborn dirt and debris with a protective seal that preserves the wood’s integrity. Effective cleaning eliminates harmful buildup, and a proper seal prevents moisture damage and wood decay, ensuring long-term durability and reducing future repair expenses.

Your deck must be sealed every one to three years to maintain its strength and appearance. Regular sealing is essential to protect the wood against moisture, mold, and harmful UV rays. A consistent sealing schedule prevents rapid deterioration and costly repairs. Inspections should be performed annually to determine if the protective layer remains intact, extending the life of your deck.

Leaving your deck untreated compromises its structural integrity and safety. An unprotected deck rots quickly due to moisture and environmental exposure, which means that neglecting sealing results in rapid decay and expensive replacement costs of $4,125 to $11,650. Sealing your deck is essential for maintaining its durability and protecting your home.

The sealant on your deck dries within a few hours and reaches full cure within 72 hours before regular use. It is essential to wait until the complete curing period to ensure the protective layer fully sets and resists weather and foot traffic. Proper drying guarantees that your deck is fully protected against moisture and environmental damage, ensuring lasting quality.
