"Ruben painted the entire exterior of our house including our screened porch, and he did a phenomenal job. First, Ruben gave us the most thorough estimate of any painting contractor we spoke to which was important because there weren't any surprises when he did the job. So the cost he quoted us was the actual cost of the project because he took the time to meticulously measure everything. Ruben also was great with follow through because he knew a storm was coming and he got his team to paint the entire house ahead of schedule to beat the bad weather and he just had to come back to paint the screened porch due to the rain. And he proactively communicated while we went through a few bad weeks of storms when he could not paint the porch but the minute the weather cleared up he proactively told me he was coming to finish the porch. I never had to worry because Ruben communicated well and when he said he would do something he would do what he said. So on top of being a great painter (who is very neat and detail oriented), he is very honest, trustworthy, and punctual. I highly recommend Ruben and his company."

"Luis did a great job painting the entire outside of my house, the pergola, the fence and retaining walls. Inside he matched the existing paint color and painted the living/dining rooms, kitchen/family rooms, entry and long hallway walls and ceilings. He fixed dry rot outside and caulked cracks inside on walls and on the brick fireplace. It looked like a new house when he finished. He and his staff Manuel were always on time, kept me informed at every step and left things clean at the end of every day. I highly recommend Luis’ company for their professionalism and excellent work. The best recommendation is this: I will hire them again whenever I have painting needs."

"Steve is a consummate professional with impressive knowledge about paint and painting. He explains what he's going to do very clearly and is to easy going to work with. He and his super nice crew did a fantastic job, working diligently to transform our weatherbeaten house at a very reasonable price. They even painted my studio building and porches for free. The house and studio look amazing! Steve fully deserves his five star rating!!!"

"Couldn't be happier with the work Bruno and his team did on our store ahead of opening. He was incredibly accommodating throughout, including taking care of the door frame along with the main paint job — the space looks completely refreshed, and the whole experience was smooth and professional. Highly recommend, would hire again"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

The process of painting or staining a fence typically takes between one and five days. The total duration depends on factors like the size of the fence, weather conditions, and necessary drying times. A significant portion of this time is for drying, as stain won't properly absorb into wet wood. You should wait 24 hours to stain a fence after washing it and allow 12 to 24 hours of drying time between each coat. The active work time is generally about one hour for every 10 to 20 linear feet of fencing.

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.

Oxygen bleach uses hydrogen peroxide as a base and won’t harm wood when using it as a cleaner. On the other hand, chlorine bleach breaks down wood at the cellular level and causes irreversible harm. Although you may not see immediate damage to wood after exposing it to chlorine bleach, its strength and integrity are now compromised.
