"We were on a tight timeline to prepare a condo apartment for listing for sale. Painters from CG Pro Painting managed to work around the tight timeline and did fantastic work, including crack repairs and fixing ceiling stains due to recent flood. We believe their exceptional work and quality really helped with the sale. Would definitely recommend them to others!"

"It went great. I was so nervous about picking the right color since our house was white and we wanted a change. We gave him a sample color from a blue house that we had seen and liked. Joey matched the sample and gave us 3 additional similar colors to compare. Then we changed our mind and picked totally different colors including grey, tan, and yellow. Joey was so helpful and patient. He got the new samples and put them on the house. We finally decided to go with out original blue sample and gave him the go ahead. His company painted the house and fence and it looks great! The neighbors have given us several compliments on the new color of the house and fence.

"Nile Schmidt is a true professional. I had him paint the outside and inside of a rehab I purchased in late 2008. Almost 1 decade later and the paint job has held up very, very well as I had a contractor over recently who thought the work had been done in the last 2 years (prompting me to write this review). Nile is great and easy to work with and his team is prompt and meticulous. If you want quality work done in a timely fashion at a reasonable price, I can't recommend anyone better than Nile and The Painting Company!"

"Very happy that we went with Approved Contractor for our first major home project. We got quotes from several other companies and none were nearly as helpful or professional. Our windows were installed quickly and they look fantastic. Our one issue was that wood frame edges around the windows weren't fully sanded down for painting after installation. Despite this, we plan on using Approved Contractor for future projects. Thanks!"

""Highly recommend Nobel Painting! It was a pleasure working with the owner, William. He gave me an estimate that was clear and easy to read, with a very fair price to paint my eaves. Communication was fantastic, and William always let me know exactly what time they would arrive. He and his crew did a flawless job. While prepping, they even fixed a few spots of water-damaged wood at no extra charge. They were professional, fast, and left my yard completely clean. Fantastic service from start to finish! I will definitely use them again when I need any painting done.""

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Always wait until the morning dew has dried before you stain your deck. The stain needs a fully dry surface to sink into.

Two coats of stain are ideal for the best protection and aesthetic appeal. However, if your decking is made of particularly dense hardwood, you may only need one coat. If you want an intense color, two coats are ideal.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Waterproof paint creates a barrier to hold back moisture, but it doesn’t eliminate the source of the water. If you hire a basement waterproofing contractor, many will tell you that waterproof paint is only a temporary solution. On average, you can expect it to last from six months to two years in a wet basement before deteriorating.
