"I couldn’t be happier with the job Adam and his team at G.Z.L Painting did on our fence! They stained it beautifully, and the chocolate color looks amazing. The whole process was smooth and quick, and the team was incredibly professional. If you’re looking for top-notch work with a hassle-free experience, I highly recommend G.Z.L Painting. Thanks again, Adam!"

"I hired GM painting (habla español) to take care of the interior of my 3 bedroom home and I am glad I did. The improvement of a home it s one of the most important investment and Mr Juan for sure makes you feel comfortable when getting the process of painting done. He is very knowledgeable and shares with you tips on how to take care of the painting of your walls. One thing that caught my attention what s how confident Mr Juan is about the quality of his paint without a hesitation he explain that if something happens to his work in the next few months I can give him a call. I have never heard another painter do that so that a huge plus. So a week after my 1 year old son put the painting to the test. He stained a big part of the dinning wall with spaghetti sauce it was bad. But I did what Mr Juan advice me, to just wipe it with a Cleaning wet wipe and that will do, and it did. Great paint quality super friendly person and is not afraid to share he s knowledge. I 100% recommend this company. He also speaks Spanish. (Habla Español.)"

"They did an excellent job of painting our kitchen cabinets and they now look great in creame instead of stained wood. They did all of the work in one week. They cleaned up the work site at the end of the job. Arrived punctually each day and had good communication with us on a daily basis."

"I reviewed three bids and selected Brett's painting. The bid was mid range. I selected Brett due to the thoroughness of his assessment of my house and the work required considering the last time the home was painted was 1990. It is paramount to me who comes on my property to perform work and as Brett is the proprietor with a California contractor license that greatly appealed to me. Brett made solid recommendations on how I should handle the wood rot. Brett was spot on with his assessment on the time and materials required, he and his employee were on time and only missed days because of rain. I got what I paid for - a beautiful exterior paint job handled by two professionals. Clean and neat not a drop of paint anywhere except where it belonged. I will hire Brett without any hesitation for my next painting job on the interior and recommend him to my neighbors. Thanks a million Brett !!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.
