"All of the work was done as described and in a timely manner. Alvaro (president) explained the process and answered any questions we had. The crew was punctual, courteous and respectful of the property. Windows, doors and vigas were taped off, drop cloths were used where material would splatter. After the completion of the project everything was cleaned up and put back in place. The workmanship is outstanding and the house looks brand new."
"Nothing but a positive experience from Aaron Trail. Very easy to communicate with. Very prompt, kept all appointments. The new paint looks amazing and just the colors we selected. All stucco repairs that were made were blended so well, there is no way to tell where the original issues were! I already have recommended them to friends and family, I will continue to do so. Very happy with Aaron Trail! "
"I own K&H Builders in Pinetop-Lakeside. I would highly recommend Lee and his crew at Illuminated Painting. I have hired their crew on my own home, two new home builds, two RV Garages and 1 barn so far. These projects were all very demanding and required many different painting styles and finishes. Illuminated Painting is very detail oriented, organized, punctual, and communicated effectively throughout every one of our projects. Lee is very patient and listens to all of our requirements and follows through to a thorough completion. I plan to continue to use Lee and his crew on every one of my projects going forward."
"They were professional and he is always looking online to find ways to get the job done and ask my opinion about it. He also clean the space where he works and that is incredibly the best quality service."
"So I needed a shelf fixed. I got a response almost immediately. The install was better then the contractors that put in the d*** thing years ago. Will definitely use again for any repairs that may come up. Thank you!!"
"Chuck and his crew did a fantastic job. He answered our million questions and his responsiveness is a big reason we went with him over another contractor. He was able to steer us to a vendor that could get our specific tile when we were unable to find it ourselves and helped us with the calculations on how much to purchase and he matched it perfectly with the flooring outside the room he did. The wife and i couldn’t be happier with how it turned out and will be calling Chuck to do our backsplash at a later date. He and his crew were very friendly and professional and ensured that any mess they made was cleaned up promptly."
"They were excellent, I would highly recommend. Everyone was very professional and showed up right when they said they would. They were gentle and everything arrived intact. They had us on the road in no time."
"It went exactly as planned. Adan Montoya was very communicative, helpful and patient throughout the project. He is friendly, fair, conscientious and hard working."
A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.
Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.
If your biggest concern is making sure your deck doesn’t show dirt, opt for a darker neutral color that blends in well with your surrounding landscape. A rich brown or dark grey are both good options that work with a variety of house colors. A high-quality acrylic paint is easy to clean and maintain, so it might be worth spending the money on.
Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.
Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.
