Our Background J&L Painting is a family business. My brother and I work together. ​ I have been working in the county as a painter since 2004. In that time, I learned what clients want, what makes clients happy. Our clients are our priority. Why? Because in any local business, our clients are our community and neighbors. We want to maintain a good relationships in our community.. Quality comes from taking pride in your work. I decided to venture out and build my painting business so I can provide quality service and help my clients feel good about their homes. ​ i want my clients to feel valued, not taken advantage of. If I make a new friend, well that is just a bonus!

"Overall good. Very considerate of our needs and communicated well about project touch points. Since our project was smaller scale for them, they worked after hours and at sporadic days and times."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Hold off on walking across your freshly stained deck for at least 24 to 48 hours and even longer before setting down furniture or planters. Drying time can stretch depending on humidity and temperature, so give it extra time when in doubt. Also, remember that even though your stained deck may feel dry to the touch, it can take 24 hours to one week to cure fully, based on the type of stain used.

There’s no single paint that’s the most waterproof. Instead, there are several types of waterproof and water-resistant paints that suit different purposes. Epoxy paint, for instance, is commonly used to provide a waterproof coating to floors and decks. Masonry paint is an excellent choice for exterior walls. Meanwhile, there are waterproof acrylic paints that can be used for interior and exterior walls. It’s more about choosing the best type for what you’re painting instead of the most waterproof paint overall.

Like the choice of stain vs. paint, your deck color is entirely up to you. By consulting color theory, you can make choosing a house and deck color combination much easier. Many people choose a darker color for their deck because it doesn’t show dirty footprints or other marks from daily wear and tear as much as a crisp white or other light color.

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.

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