"These guys were amazing and literally saved our home sale transaction. I called them with very little notice and they jumped right in to fix what another painter had given up on."

"I called for an estimate which was done 2 days later and I received the estimate via email the same day. The work was scheduled within 10 days. I received reminders via text and email and the crew arrived right on time. They did a fantastic job! My house looks brand new and the gutters which were approximately 30 feet up and badly stained with mildew also look like new. They also cleaned a 'garden' window which we couldn't reach"

"Dan is extremely personable and easy to work with. While it may take time until he is available, it is worth the wait. The job isn't finished until the customer is happy. On a side note, Martin Services was one of two companies through AngiesList that met our criteria. After a very short phone conversation, he's the same Dan Martin who was our neighbor and built our deck 30 years ago! He asked me if it's still standing....it is!"

"Westlake Wash did an awesome job. They came out to look at the roof and walkways and provided an estimate, confident the roof could be clean and look good. They came within the timeframe anticipated, and the difference was night and day. When we purchased the house we were uncertain the roof would come clean and concerned we might need a new roof. However, when they were finished, it looked like a new roof and the brick walkways and patio were back to the original red instead of slimy green and black. Quick response, both through phone and email, came when scheduled and high quality results. Prompt billing, also through email, which I appreciate. <br />"

"This was our third job with Dollman Construction. They did a full kitchen renovation for us last year. <br /> Our two new bathrooms are big steps up in both form and function. Jimmy Dollman worked with and improved on our design ideas and saw a great solution to make our master bath requirements work. By pushing back a knee wall and expanding a dormer by less than 30 sq feet, our new master bath feels twice as big. The addition of a transom window (with a mountain view) gives the room an open, warmer feel. Our house is 90 years old and in a historic district, so we were worried about getting approval for the part of the work that altered the exterior of our home. However, the job was approved without a hitch - Dollman understood the process, the requirements and was thorough. <br /> As in the past, both Dollman employees and subcontractors were professional and we were comfortable with everyone who came in and out of our home. The Dollman employees who did the demolitions and the exterior construction were especially hard working and conscientious. The project manager, Bradley, was good with creatively handling the kinds of challenges you run into with older homes. He also found and corrected a pre-existing issues with a drain vent that could easily have gone unnoticed and uncorrected.  <br /> I assigned a "B" on punctuality because "B+" is not available. There was more down time during the first half of the job than we expected, partly, I'm sure, because managing subcontractors is often like herding cats. But to be fair, if we weren't living in the house during the work, we probably wouldn't have noticed, and it's not likely that any other general contractor in the area could have done better. <br /> We're not planning any more renovations any time soon; twice in two years takes some recovery time! But we'd certainly use Dollman Construction again."

FAQs for deck, fence, patio or porch clean and seal projects in Salem, VA

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.
