"We recently had the exterior of our home painted by Jim and his team. Their attention to detail, willingness to listen, going out of their way to do extra repairs, and genuine hard work made us feel completely satisfied that we chose the right painting team for the job. Our house turned out Amazing and it was very reasonably priced. We highly recommend Jim Douglass painting and will for sure be calling them again for future jobs!"
"John with Plain Painting is a true professional. I located him online on Thursday, negotiated the job on Friday, scheduled job on Tuesday and job was completed on Wednesday. Highly recommend John at Plain Painting."
"These guys estimated that my project calling for stucco repair and painting of 3192 sq ft, two-story walls under roof and a perhaps, 65-yard wraparound wall would take two days; this proved incorrect as it took only ONE day, more specifically, seven hours. This family-owned and operated company had five guys descend on our residence and performed professionally if not brilliantly. They tell you what they’re going to do, and do it for a fair price (got four other quotes and S & H was in the middle but the others - not unreasonably - estimated five work days). Beyond timeliness and price, the paint job was precise and clean up was superb. Strongly recommend them on a painting project…."

"From beginning to end, and everything in between, was excellent with 5 Star Painting. We had picked a paint color that would not go with our doors. 5 star and their painting crew, Mike M, worked with us to find the right color. We could not be more happy with house. 5 star brought life to our home. We will definitely be using them again for any and all of our painting needs."
"Very pleasant young man. Excellent workmanship. On time. Very efficient. Great price. Will definitely use him for future projects. My antique Buffet looks great."
Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.
You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.
You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.
Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain.
Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.
