"Tracy and his painting crew professionally completed the exterior paint job with amazing results. I would recommend their services anytime. My house color scheme was exactly what I wanted and Tracy was responsive the entire timeframe of the project. His crew also touched up extra odds and ends. Their work standards have been the BEST contractor work that I have encountered out of all my Rental Home projects. Thanks, Tracy"

Customers say: Terrific value

"Vince had his team get the whole fence staining job done in a total of one day. 1/2 day for power washing then came back a few days later to do the staining, again in 1/2 day. They were on time, professional & left no mess. I would definitely recommend them for fence staining again. I felt I paid a fair price too. I provided the stain myself."

"We highly recommend Aggressive Painting Services! Edgar Avila and his team were professional, thorough, and hardworking from start to finish. They pressure-washed the entire house before beginning and made sure everything was properly prepared. They also cleaned up after themselves and left absolutely no mess behind. They even repaired some siding that our dog had chewed up, which we truly appreciated. The team was respectful, detail-oriented, and clearly takes pride in their work. We couldn’t be happier with the final result — their work looks fantastic!"

"We worked with Ali (sales manager) and Tony (project manager), who took the time to design a project that made sense for our property and our budget, made a number of suggestions and recommendations and were never pushy or tried to "sell" us on something. The crew really went above and beyond to provide top quality workmanship and overall we were in very good hands. Highly recommended!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

The best time to paint your deck is when temperatures are neither too cold (below 60 degrees) nor too hot (above 85 degrees). Always paint your deck when there’s no risk of rain. For fast-drying paint like acrylic or latex, ensure your deck can dry for at least four hours. Oil-based paints take longer to dry and may require 48 hours to completely cure.

It’s a good idea to sand your porch before painting. This will remove loose or chipped paint and debris, and give you a cleaner surface so that your new paint goes on smoothly. But if the existing surface is in good condition, it’s not necessary to sand your porch before you paint.

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.

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.
