"They started each day at 8:00 AM and worked until 5:00 or later. They were very polite and professional. The lead person George would explain what they would be doing each day and then perform the tasks. The deck looks like it is brand new and the redwood has the original color and grain. Note: the bill included 4 hours of setting the deck screws so they could sand. Otherwise they performed to the bid."

"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."

"From beginning through completion Gene exceeded my expectations. I normally do all my own work, but due to my schedule I did not have time to compete the project. Gene arrived when he said he would to give me an estimate. The price and scope of work were reasonable and fair. We set a start date. The night before I received a text to confirm. At 8:00 AM The door bell rang. They were here. The gentleman who pressure washed they house did a great job. Even cleaned the stairs and sidewalk. The paint crew also arrived on time. They did a super job. Clean and quick. Those guys worked really hard during some hot, smokey weather. The place looks great."

Customers say: True professional

"I have worked with Ceres Construction on multiple residential projects that have spanned several years in duration. Adrian is one of the most reliable and upstanding contractors I have worked with in Marin and his attention to quality is rare. Our first project was a historic home in Mill Valley where Adrian and team built my children a treehouse that’s right out of a storybook nestled into a large tree. Next he rebuilt several decks/railings, re-sided our ADU, and installed new outdoor electrical. At our next home in San Anselmo, we called Ceres to completely rebuild a large outdoor deck that leaked and caused damage to the living spaces below. We also had them prep the house for sale by replacing banisters, remodeling the kitchen, and finishing the garage. We purchased a very old home that needed lots of work while maintaining the charm. Ceres worked for 18 months and handled everything from foundations to plumbing to drywall. You name it, they can do it all. Best in the business."

"I recently had the pleasure of working with Prestige Custom Painters, and I couldn't be more impressed with the results. From start to finish, their attention to detail was unparalleled. Victor, the owner, made communication a breeze. He was always responsive and followed up promptly, which made the whole process seamless. His supervisor, Jesus, and the entire team were incredibly professional throughout the job. The task at hand was a complex one—painting my three-story building with a mix of stucco, wood, and cement shingle siding. The restoration of the original wood window trim, which had been neglected for over 100 years, was a major concern. The trim had significant warping and pitting, but after Prestige's work, it looks as though it's brand new. They also took the time to extensively caulk everything, ensuring a smooth, flawless finish. Another highlight was their meticulous approach to protecting the surrounding areas. They covered the windows and work areas with tarps and plastic, preventing any potential damage. Additionally, they cleaned up daily and did so more thoroughly than other subcontractors I've worked with. I would highly recommend Prestige Custom Painters to anyone looking for quality craftsmanship and a team that truly cares about their work. It was a pleasure working with them, and the final results speak for themselves!"

"The approximate cost was $1300. The guys were nice. But the paint job isn't holding up that well. From the wall were my alarm is when the wall gets touch the paint is coming off. I don't think they did do a primer. It's not holding up I can see were it needs to be touched up in hallway and the laundry room where they painted and same in the kitchen. They were kind of in a hurry so they didn't spend time on prep. That's the kind of comment I will make to future customer. It looks good but they don't do a lot of prep. There were areas that have to be touched up.  It's not even a full year yet. They kind of want to get in and out.  Initially he came in with a price. He verbally gave me quotes for each room and because I am a female. He went outside to his truck to come back with the final bill and it was 3 times than what he said for each room. I say to him I guess I have to give you a not so great review on Angie's List because the quote and the integrity of all that is part of why I use Angie's List. When I said that he called me back and said oh I'm so sorry I don't know what I was thinking. That wasn't the quote I wanted to give you. I am like oh my god if I hadn't said that this guy will be taking me to the cleaners. They were on time. They were professional."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Always sand a deck before repainting so the wood is smooth and ready for paint. While you do not need to fully remove paint before repainting, sanding helps remove any areas with weather and sun damage. Sanding also helps remove chipped or flaking paint and opens the wood pores to improve paint adhesion.

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.

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.
