"My experience with this company was outstanding. My house needed wood replacement because of dry rot, we needed vinyl stripping replaced, holes filled in with caulking. They also picked up all their trash and supplies so that when the job was done it looks great. I would highly recommend anybody to use this company. I am thrilled with my house."

"EZY painting did an excellent job. They were reliable, completed the work in less than a week, cleaned up after and worked extremely hard. I don’t even think they took lunch breaks. Highly recommend them."

"Last winter, my husband and I were fortunate enough to close on a house. However, the garage was sorely in need of interior cleaning, repair, and paint. We were both “Gung Ho” about doing it ourselves when I tripped and fractured my wrist. At that point, the movers were due to arrive in 5 days with two truckloads of home furnishings. Josh Dowell (Dowell’s Painting) responded to my desperate call by promptly sending out an associate to start cleaning and taping followed up working over the weekend to personally accommodate our needs. The results were thorough and well executed. In the process, we learned to appreciate Josh’s words of wisdom that the painting of a well-used garage interior is a much more formidable project than most lay people assume it to be. We’re happy to provide testament to his extensive experience and professionalism and will gladly give him another call for the next painting project."

"Beautiful job on the exterior of my home! It is obvious they take pride in what they do. Prep work was extremely thorough, which makes such a big difference. I also found them to be very timely and responsive and the price to be reasonable."

"My experience with ALR Painting was excellent. Alex was on time everyday and took the utmost care in painting the exterior of my house and my workshop. My house looks amazing. Alex even helped me with my color choices which alleviated a lot of the stress of picking the correct colors. I would highly recommend him to all my friends and family. A++"

"I hired a painter out of the newspaper and he gave me a flyer to do all the things he was going to do. He didn't do any of them. I had to have my house painted for appraisal. After that experience, I called Angie's List for a list of painters. Beyond a doubt Four Seasons was the best. He brought it to my attention that there was lead based paint. He suggested that I call a company to detect if there is lead within the paint. Four Season is so knowlegeable and so precise."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

Yes, beginners can use a paint sprayer, but there is a learning curve. It's important to go slowly, read the instructions thoroughly, and spend some time learning the technique. Watching tutorial videos for your specific paint sprayer model can be very helpful. Before starting your main project, practice on a scrap surface to get used to the sprayer and avoid common issues like overspraying, which can cause drips, bubbles, and other imperfections. For safety, always wear a mask and gloves, and be careful not to touch the sprayer's tip when it's in use, particularly with high-powered airless sprayers.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Pricing depends on prep work, paint/stain choice, area size, scaffolding needs, and detailed trim inclusions like precision-balanced windowsills.

When choosing between deck stain or paint, knowing what will last longer is important. Deck paint lasts longer than deck stain. With deck paint, you can get up to 10 years of coverage before you need to reapply. With deck stain, that time is significantly shorter at two to three years
