"Troy does excellent work. He originally did all of the faux painting in our home over 15 years ago. He is an extremely talented painter/artist. It was time to remodel one of the rooms that he originally painted. I had a particular look in mind and he totally came through with that idea plus some. He pays particular attention to detail and actually went beyond the call of duty on this particular project. I highly recommend him!"

"970 Pro Painting and its owner Lui Herrera have been amazing with painting projects not only in our office building, but also our business office. The work was performed perfectly from the bidding process through completion. Extremely clean, precise and professional in all aspects of our interactions. Truly an stress-free experience. Highly recommend and will use again for our painting projects in the future."

"Rey takes his business seriously and has great customer service. We had some slight delays due to a specialty paint we were using but Rey mitigated the situation and made good on our agreed upon timeline. I would hire Rey's Painting again."

"I was contacted quickly after requesting a quote for removing popcorn ceilings in our new home. These guys were efficient and communicated very well. They were able to finish the job (popcorn removal, sanding, drywall, and painting) in about four day before we moved in. They looked so great and it totally increased the value of our home! The price was very reasonable and the job was done perfectly."

"AK did a fabulous job on painting our entire 3- bedroom, 2 floor condo. Aaron's work product is super high quality and to our surprise/delight, he completed our job a day early! We called 5 painters and got three estimates and he offered the most reasonable price, by far. Aaron is one of the most polite people I've ever met. I refer to him as 'low impact man' as he keeps all of his materials contained and was quiet as a mouse - we didn't even know he was there as he made his way around the house painting every wall. Also, he always let me know exactly what time he would be arriving each morning and gave me traffic updates too so I always knew if he would be 5 or 10 mins delayed. I would HIGHLY recommend AK Painting - I can't wait to refer AK some business! Aaron was super respectful and always wore his mask (Covid) and protective eqiupment. The zero VOC paint he uses meant almost no smell too!"

"Joe and Tina (Joe's Flooring and Painting) did an excellent job on our project! They were very clear in communication, budgeting and charged reasonable rates for quality work. They installed extra long vinyl plank flooring, baseboards, as well as remove and construct a new double wood staircase. They kept a clean work environment, were very polite and worked efficiently to complete the project in a timely manner. Would highly recommend Joe's Flooring and Painting for your flooring needs! Will definitely be hiring them again for their painting services this year."

"Yuni has a great attitude and is very helpful. He helped us with more than painting. He helped us demo a tub and countertops. He also helped us lay some slate tile. He was on time, his crews worked hard, and he followed through on everything he promised. We recommend Yuni!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Stains penetrate wood best when it's cool and dry, so you want to avoid moisture. If the wood is wet upon application, or if it rains before the stain dries, the water will soak into the wood and displace the staining solution. This leads to a flaky and blotchy look, which is the opposite of a sumptuous even coat. Once the stain has fully cured, after about 3 days, rain shouldn’t cause you any problems.

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

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.

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.
