"Extremely professional company from owner to all workers. They showed up exactly when expected and worked efficiently and left no mess at the end of each day. The owner, Arturo, provides expert advice on what needs to be painted and what doesn t. He is also an expert on which paints and stains are most appropriate for the job. I am extremely happy with the results. I also appreciate that they put up with my German Shepherd who routinely tried to grab their brushes, tape, and rags!"

"Jason, the owner, came and met us to discuss what we wanted done. He took the appropriate measurements and provided a detailed estimate a few days later (which included testimonials from prior customers). Once we selected him (from the 3 estimates we obtained) we scheduled the work at a time convenient for both parties. When the time came, the painter he sent, Keith Foskey, did a great job. It was apparent that Keith cared about his work and communicated well while he was here. All in all, we were very happy with the results and would use Summit Painting again.

"Austin and Brian were great to work with. From estimate to completion, they were capable, careful and neat. We were so pleased with the end-product (wall finishing, trim staining/finishing, and texture painting). They also cleaned up after job completion to make our space look even better than when they began the job. I most highly recommend this company for your renovation and construction needs."

"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."

"Emilio and his team did a fantastic job scraping out popcorn ceilings, retexturing them, and painting them all throughout the house and garage. When the paint started to crack in a couple places, he immediately came back and refinished the area until it was perfect. Emilio is also very responsive via text and takes pride in his work. We would highly recommend Drywall 614 for any project"

Painting questions, answered by experts

Preparation includes cleaning the fence, sanding any rough areas, applying a primer if necessary, and ensuring dry weather for application.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.

Regular cleaning, rust-proof coatings, and checking fasteners help prolong the lifespan.

For homes in areas with extreme weather, high heat, or intense sun exposure, high-quality acrylic paint is the best option. Acrylic paint is durable, resistant to both heat and cold, and provides a protective barrier with excellent UV resistance. For best results, look for acrylics that contain natural earth pigments, which are better suited for resisting sun damage. While oil-based paint is also durable, it can be prone to fading in high heat and can become too viscous to apply easily in cold temperatures. Additionally, choosing a neutral or light color like gray, beige, or white can help, as these colors absorb less heat than darker shades.
