"Jon and his crew did a wonderful job for us. We needed ceiling repair and printing after having insulation blown into the rafters and our front door restained and finished. The ceilings look like new as does the door. The crew were efficient and respectful from start to finish. We will use them again for any future painting requirements we have."

"Larry is my go-to guy for painting. I have used him several times, both for my home and for my rental. I noted that the specific project was interior painting, which he has done for me on several occasions. He always does a good job, and shows up when he says he will, and finished the project on time. I have also used Larry for exterior and trim painting, doors and he also stained the wood shingles on the exterior of my home. He is always professional both in dealing with me and my tenants. I am also aware of his work painting the inside of my church, which involved high ceilings, beams and two colors. He did a beautiful job. I would not hesitate to recommend Larry for any painting job."

"Initially we had trouble making an appointment, not entirely the painting contractor's fault. His flexibility and willingness to reschedule our initial appointment was appreciated.  He and his workers did a great job. They matched the paint, and did the caulking on a paint job just  three years old without any noticeable difference between the new and the old.
After he finished this work we hired him to return to  re-caulk over half the house where where the caulking had shrunk with time.
We now have a snug house.  The next time we need a painting contractor we will call him.

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, you can paint a chain-link fence, but you don’t want to use spray paint. With the spray method, you’ll be losing a majority of your product to the air, given the size of the gaps in chain-link fences. Instead, use a paintbrush for your fence posts and a paint roller for the wire.

Whitewashing isn’t permanent, but it can last for a long, long time. When you apply it correctly or have a seasoned pro whitewash your brick, whitewashing can last for 20 to 30 years or longer. Whitewash is very durable and typically requires little maintenance, making it a great project for most DIYers.

Most gutter painting pros also specialize in complete home exterior painting. You may save by making your gutter painting part of the cost to paint the exterior of a house in its entirety. Many people have all parts of their home exterior painted simultaneously to keep everything looking equally fresh. Consider having walls, trim, porches, shutters, and doors painted as well.

You can paint an old wooden fence, but make sure first to do a deep clean (ideally with a pressure washer) and inspect the fence for any existing damage. Painting over dirt and debris will cause your paint to peel. Once you’ve cleaned and repaired any minor issues, use a primer and high-quality satin paint.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.
