"This was an exemplary and professional job. The staff, painters, carpenters and managers were on the job until complete. Constant contact, updates and suggestions. Ernesto, Alberto and Gian were central to the success of this project. They truly are King of the Painters, bar non. Hard workers, diligent worker and professional workers. Work well together and helped each other achieve maximum performance and effect. My wife and I loved the end results and so do my neighbors. Thank you, The King of Painters, a job well done!"

"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!"

"THE ACTUAL PAINT JOB WAS EXCELLENT. THEY WERE A HARD WORKING CREW AND I BELIEVE THEY TOOK PRIDE IN THEIR WORK. I WOULD HAVE GIVEN A GRADE OF "A" FOR THE JOB EXCEPT THAT THERE WERE SIGNIFCANT SCHEDULING ISSUES DUE TO THE BOSS, AS WELL AS HIS OVERESTMATE OF OVER 2 GALLONS OF PAINT FOR THE JOB, THE PAINT WHICH I HAD TO SUPPLY. THAT MISTAKE COST BE AN ADDITIONAL $60, AND BECAUSE THE PAINT WAS CUSTOM COLOR , IT WAS NOT RETURNABLE. THEN THE ISSUE OF THE BOSS LOSING MY PAYMENT CHECK AND MY HAVING TO SUBMIT A STOP PAYMENT REQUEST TO MY BANK FURTHER DISAPPOINTED ME ABOUT THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE. BUT I WANT TO REPEAT, THEY DID AN EXCELLENT JOB ON THE ACTUAL PAINTING."

"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!"

"I am thrilled to have found Marcelo with American Painting Company. I was in desperate need of a painter to paint my rental condo in order to get it ready for my new tenants. Marcelo responded to my request immediately and was able to start the very next week. I worked side by side with Marcelo while he painted and I worked on the repairs. He is very pleasant, attentive to detail and did a fabulous job. I highly recommend American Painting and will definitely be using Marcelo for my other properties."

"We recently had the exterior of our house painted, and we couldn’t be happier with the results. The crew was professional, punctual, and paid close attention to every detail. They took the time to properly prepare the surfaces, protect our landscaping, and kept the work area clean throughout the project. The finished paint job looks fantastic and has completely transformed the appearance of our home. The quality of workmanship is outstanding, and the team was friendly and easy to communicate with from start to finish. I highly recommend this company to anyone looking for high-quality exterior house painting. Five stars all the way!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

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.

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.

We don’t recommend it. A wired brush or a brush with metal bristles damages concrete and asphalt during the stain removal process. For the best results, stick to nylon stiff enough to do the job but gentle enough to keep from scratching the driveway. For extra caution, skip the brush entirely and use towels.

Moisture and rot are the largest threat to wooden fences. Stain can help your wood fence last 15 to 20 years, but only if you choose a stain with waterproofing qualities or add a sealant. Oil-based stains create a thicker moisture barrier than water-based stains, though both are mold and mildew resistant. You’ll generally need to re-stain your fence every one to eight years to get full protection.

Maintaining a composite fence is pretty straightforward, as it doesn’t require staining or repainting. To keep it clean, scrub the fencing with a composite deck cleaner or hot, soapy water. Use a soft-bristle brush for the best results, and avoid using pressure washers or sanders. Plan to clean your fence at least twice a year. Scrubbing the fencing in the fall and spring can help prevent mold and mildew growth.
