"Francisco and crew are really great guys ! They were very professional and got my house painted in record time ! They did a great job from start to finish. I have an old house 1907, and they took great care in masking off the trim, stained glass windows,etc. They were very pleasant while they were working. The price was very fair and the work is outstanding !"

"I can't think of enough good things to say about Omar Alvarado and his company, Green Oak Painting. He and his helper Ricardo did an excellent job on my house painting project made challenging by the extensive prep work required which included extensive scraping and sanding and replacing or restoring some siding, rafter tails and other wood affected by dry rot. They were on time, even early, for all appointments and scheduled work, and Omar kept me informed at every step about what was needed, what he recommended, what it would cost, and to ask me what I wanted because it meant a lot to him that I would be happy with the results. They were thorough but efficient, caulked every nook and cranny, and applied several coats of primer and the finish coat. There are a couple of doors in such bad shape they need to be replaced, which will take a few weeks, and Omar's fee includes returning when they arrive to help me hang them and paint them, and I know he will because he earned my complete trust. He honored the estimate despite all the prep work required. But he is also a competent business owner. Omar is one of the nicest, most honest, and most conscientious people I have ever met and I just wish he did more than painting. He told me he chose to specialize in painting so that he could excel at it, and he does."

"We are very happy with our newly painted deck. Anthony answers all questions with great detail and is very responsive. Our deck looks really great because Anthony went above and beyond to ensure a quality job was done. Anthony and Jose also wore masks and kept social distancing measures during the process."

"Darrin did a great job transforming my kitchen cabinets. His crew were on time and any questions or concerns were answered and addressed promptly. Compared to the cost of a new kitchen remodel, painting the cabinets was the best option to minimize expense with my remodeling project.. Very pleased with the end product, and overall experience."

"Daniel and his team at Soco Painting did a fantastic job on the exterior paint job. They were quick, thorough and communicative including tackling some minor dry rot repair and shutter replacement plus final touch ups. All for a far price. A+ No complaints."

"We hired Sonoma Valley Painting to paint the entire interior of our home before moving in, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. Jeremy and his team were wonderful to work with—professional, detail-oriented, and incredibly skilled. Our house originally had dark colors throughout, and Jeremy completely transformed it, brightening every space and giving it a fresh, welcoming feel. We painted every single room and added a dark accent wall in our bedroom, which Jeremy helped us match perfectly to our vision. Our home also had custom-stained doors, and Jeremy went above and beyond to ensure any new or unstained trim matched beautifully. He even helped refinish our front door, which truly elevated our curb appeal and made the whole house feel brand new. We highly recommend Sonoma Valley Painting for anyone looking for quality work, great communication, and a team that truly cares about the finished product."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.
