"Excellent carpentry and painting. Good time management and site clean-up after a busy work day. Would definitely recommend hiring J&L for any painting projects."
"Juan and his brother did a fantastic job on my very tired bathroom. Professional all the way. Showed up on time, prepped everything well, finished the job within the timeframe I provided. Good communication throughout the entire process. I definitely would hire again and recommend this company for painting and staining."
"Great experience. Soto painting was very thoughtful and communicative. Soto painting strives for excellence and wants to make sure they do an excellent job. Helped out with all the details of the exterior painting including helping with rotten wood and gutter problems. The paint job was amazing and already have received a lot of compliments. I am so happy with the work and great full that I was able to connect and hire Soto Painting Co."
"DHR painting did a very nice job. We have a lot of trim work and all of it looks exceptional. Danny communicated well with us on timing and setting up a start date. The guys Brett and Scott doing the work were helpful and patient when coming across some color indecision mid job. My only negative would be they didn't always put in an 8 hour day and only seemed to work 3 days a week. They were supposed to have three guys painting, but only had two and often only one here at a time. The job could have been done faster if they had better team work. I was not in a rush so it turned out ok. All in all I would recommend them."
"They did the most wonderful job in my living room. Clean, quick, and courteous. Nothing but the utmost valued is what I felt while they were in the process of the project. I would highly recommend Taylor painting company to any person looking for quality craftsmanship."
"This the best work i have ever seen. They were very clean and respectful. Stayed true to the original bid they gave me, didn't go penny over. Also did exactly what i asked and completed the job very fast. I would definitely recommend Epic painting. "
"I hired Brent to finish painting the inside of my house as I got myself caught in a deadline to move and needed to get in as soon as possible. He and his assistant worked for six days on my house and did an excellent job. He stayed to catch any spots that needed touch up. Excellent work on the painting and a nice guy."
Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.
Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.
Yes, you can limewash surfaces other than brick. Plaster, stone, stucco, and concrete can all also be limewashed. Any porous surface that will absorb the wash is a good candidate for limewash, although it won’t help much with waterproofing. If you choose to limewash over paint, you’ll need to prep before applying it to avoid a powdery, chalky finish. Shiny surfaces like metal or glass can’t absorb limewash, so it’s not suited for these.
You shouldn't paint a metal fence. Painting doesn't necessarily damage a corrugated metal fence, but these types of fences are meant to flex, and paint can easily chip and break off. Latex paints can address this issue, but those tend not to be very weather-resistant. Certain paints can trap moisture in the corrugation, which can rust the metal and lead to corrosion. And finally, if you paint a copper fence, it won't patina, which is one of the main reasons people buy copper.
Yes, you can paint a chain-link fence, but you don’t want to use spray paint. With the spray method, you’ll be losing a majority of your product to the air, given the size of the gaps in chain-link fences. Instead, use a paintbrush for your fence posts and a paint roller for the wire.
