"My house was built in the 70s and likely hadn't been painted in 20 years. The trim, doors, and deck were a dark 70's style brown and I was worried it might not be able to painted well! It also had several areas needing stucco repair. I found Sunguard here on Angie's List and was impressed by the reviews. They did not disappoint. I never had to leave a message for a call back because the owner answered the phone every time I called. They came out right away and completed the job in record time. The paint job is high quality and looks great. They aren't the cheapest in town, but they do a good job. Now, they are coming out to paint my neighbor's house too!"

"Julio and Richard were very professional and checked-in with me regularly during the job to make sure I didn't have any concerns, and keep me informed as the job progressed. In addition to painting the house, they were able to restore the dry wall of my patio ceiling, and put in new stained wood slats for my RV gate."
"They were fabulous! Our house looks amazing! They followed our HOA guidelines and were on time every day. We had them paint our block wall fence which had some water stains. They treated the water stains before painting and the fence looks beautiful. They are very professional and their clean-up was great. I would highly recommend this wonderful family owned business!"
"I hired the AZ Painting Co to repaint the exterior of my small stucco home. They also replaced some rotting wood and power washed a small stain on my block wall. At the time they were offering a 10% discount. I thought they did a great job, worked quickly and efficiently and I would definitely hire them again!"
"I sent out for bids to 5 Angieslist "A" rated painting companies. James was one of four that bid, and one of only two who actually came to the home to personally inspect the job. After carefully reviewing all of our quotes we decided to work with James. His bid was not the lowest, however, we felt most comfortable with him based on his lifetime experience as a professional painter, the quality of the paints he proposed, his knowledge of the processes, etc. He's very personable and I learned that both his father and grandfather before him were full-time painting professionals. And I really enjoyed the fact that he brought his son Nelson with him, as it was Nelson's first day of summer vacation. Truly a family affair!
James arrived on the day and at the time agreed upon. His team was very careful in prep. Even though this was exterior painting they took great precautions to protect everything such as the cool-deck, outdoor furniture, neighbor's adjoining walls, etc
As a long term valley residents (me 50+ years, my wife 3rd generation native) we've had a lot of exterior painting done. We couldn't be more pleased with the results! Even though our original plans were to just paint the fence now and then repaint our entire 2-story home in about a year or two, we're moving forward with doing the home now, and we are using James Horn and his team to do it.
"Did an excellent job painting my house! I have worked with painting companies in the past and Marcel Painting far exceeded my expectations. Carlos and his crew were timely, clean and hard working. Finished a large house that included fencing, columns, wood staining and railing in record time. Other companies offered me the same price or higher for less work. Everyone is professional and available. You can't miss with this company."

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.
It’s important to make sure the wood on a new deck is properly seasoned. Seasoning a deck is simple: Once you build it (or have a pro do so), just leave it alone so it can acclimate to the environment. If you don’t give the deck proper seasoning time before staining, the stain can lock in any lingering moisture and cause mold, rot, and other moisture issues down the road. Give the wood at least four to eight weeks to season before you stain.
Exterior paints contain more volatile organic compounds, or VOCs, making them dangerous when used indoors. Without the free ventilation of the great outdoors, it can take longer for the fumes to dissipate than interior paint. While you may notice the smell lessening more quickly, you should be wary of paint fumes inside for 48 to 72 hours after it dries.
The plastic in composite decking boards protects them enough that you do not need to paint them to prevent warping. In fact, painting composite decking voids the warranty of some manufacturers. Painting can also increase maintenance on the deck, as you must paint regularly to keep it looking its best.
If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.
