"While house-sitting at a friends house that was just re-painted, I couldn’t help but look at the painting work that had just been done. The level of detail was incredible. The edges were sharp, crisp and straight. I was very impressed. She ended up giving me the number of Bob (The King of the Painters) Lyon. Bob came out and looked over my house. There was a lot of termite damage, the side garage door needed to be replaced and dry rot was prevalent throughout. Fascia, eaves and large beams were in bad shape. All had peeling paint. Bob has an amazing eye for colors. We settled on the color scheme and Bob even picked out the fabric we chose for the awning we had installed out front. After settling on a price (which was VERY reasonable) we set up the date for work to begin. On the day the crew arrived, the project manager (Mike) introduced me to his crew. Dennis Iloff, Jr. Lopez, Alvin Hernandez and last (but certainly not least) Ricardo “Rickey” Duenas. While Mike was tending to other jobs, Ricardo was my point man. He asked all the right questions, always informed me of what the tasks of the day were going to be and answered all my questions with a smile. This crew was thorough and they all seemed to be having fun while working very hard. I couldn’t be happier with the finished product. Bob Lyon is probably the nicest guy you’ll ever meet and his employees show it too. Give them a try. You will NOT be disappointed."

"We used Nigel and the Painting Company's service over 6 months ago and would have used them with our most recent project had they been available. We were very pleased with their service and the job they provided us, so much so that they have set a high standard for other painters/contractors we hire.

Nigel came out and did an estimate on our Kitchen, Dining Room, Living Room (walls and ceiling), stair case, bathroom and laundry room. We were happy with the estimate and decided to move forward, he suggested we give him the swatches of our chosen colors as he gets a better deal on the paint because he is a contractor, rather than us picking it up ourselves at the hardware store.

He had two painters working at our place for two days and they did an amazing job. The paint looks fantastic, and they took plenty of time to move all of the furniture to the center of the rooms, they covered all flooring and furniture in plastic and everything was fully protected. They were very friendly and even brought my husband tamales on one of the mornings! There was no mess for us to clean up after they finished the paint job and they regularly checked with us to see how we liked what they had done so far, which as a homeowner, is very reassuring. 

We highly recommend using Nigel and his painters at The Painting Company for any of your paint jobs, they have fair prices and provide a quality result."

"Had Justin come give me an estimate on painting the exterior of a 1970sq ft home. Nice Guy, punctual, but the estimate was 3x the going rate. He quoted me $10,000 for a small home. Just a heads up that this company is not realistic at least as far as the cost of painting a 1970 sq ft home goes."

Painting questions, answered by experts

If you paint a vinyl fence, it will likely stick to it for only a brief amount of time. This is because vinyl is not a porous material, so it's not an ideal surface for holding paint. Initially, paint will stick to your fence, but it will eventually peel off. Applying primer before painting your vinyl fence will help paint last longer. Certain primers are well-suited to vinyl, which means you can paint vinyl siding with the proper preparation.

On most untreated wood fences, there is no need to sand before treating. You typically only need to sand if there’s an old coat of paint or stain on your fence. If you do need to sand off a previous paint or protective coating (like an old stain or sealant), use medium-grit sandpaper.

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.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

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.
