"We had A+ Painting paint the entire interior of our two story home with vaulted ceilings as well as stain our stair bannisters. The end result is spectacular and turned out better than we could have hoped! George and his team were very professional, friendly, and flexible throughout our entire remodel project (which required multiple visits). Pricing was the best we received and the value was apparent with the high quality products used. They will recommend a couple of product options of what they feel would be best for your project, but ultimately let you do your homework and choose whatever you are most comfortable with - no bullying to pick the highest tier/priciest option. They also touched up door and window trims that were dinged up by the previous owner at no additional charge. We enjoyed working with George and have already recommended him to friends and have decided to use A+ Painting when we paint the exterior of our home this summer."

"Rolando wants to provide the best results and makes excellent recommendations that you should consider and discuss. Lower cost (cheaper paints) don’t necessarily give you the best or lasting results. His team is very meticulous and does a great job in prepping and cleanup."

"Wish they had given me more time to choose colors. I felt pressured to decide. (Reasonable I guess as the painters were ready to go but their was still quite a bit more prep work to do).. The workers were pleasant and accommodating. There was a lot of pick up of tape, etc. that I had to do (small pieces of stuff) but overall they cleaned up well. I felt they charged me a fair amount and that was nice. The owner did a walk through but a bit before they finished. I went out today and found paint dripped on several place on my cement walks. Also I was disappointed that they did not put things back they had to move. Some are way too heavy for me to move myself. Also noticed when I opened some of the doors that they missed some of the edges. They had to scrape and sand some things a lot and made things look almost brand new. It was amazing."

"David and his crew were efficient and professional painting the exterior of our home, cottage and wooden hutch. I’m not someone who regularly writes online, reviews, but I do highly recommend J & D Painting."

"I needed my wood carriage type garage door and 30 feet of cedar fence refinished and stained after 9 years of wear. I also needed the wood trim around the house repainted. It was hard for me to find a painter who would take on this relatively small job. Previous businesses I contacted even through Angies List either weren't interested in the size of the job or wanted to paint the garage door rather than stain it. Detail Pro Painting understood what I wanted and made it happen. Their attention to detail for both the prep work as well as the actual staining were quite superb. They power washed, bleached, sanded where needed and masked off the adjoining areas very meticulously. There was no "overspray" or bleed when they were done. I am really very happy with the job they did. Manny the owner communicated well and understood what I desired. I believe that this company takes pride in their quality and does not charge extra for it!"

"They did a wonderful job. They were on time everyday. Dillon, the project manager, was great at communicating with us and following through on our request. The job looks great and I would recommend them anyone who needs painting or the house painted."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

A wood deck requires annual cleaning and regular inspections for loose or broken boards, nails, and screws. It should be refinished by applying a stain or sealer every two to three years to protect the wood from water damage, rot, mildew, and sun fading. The exact frequency can depend on the climate and the deck's exposure to sun and moisture. If your deck is painted, it will need repainting approximately every 10 years. Signs that your deck needs refinishing include faded, splintering, or warping boards.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

You can paint over old paint on a concrete porch. For the best results, you should first clean the surface and remove as much paint as you can. A power washer is helpful here, but you’ll also want to scrape as much of the old paint away as possible. Then you should prime the porch before repainting it.

The best paint for an older deck depends on the material and whether or not your deck already has a coat of paint. Generally, if your deck already has paint on it, you should choose the same type of paint when repainting the deck. For example, if an old deck has oil-based paint on it, stick with oil; if your deck has water-based paint, choose water-based paint.
