"The crew that came to do my work was very friendly and I felt very comfortable with them in my home... I had some painting done, and also some new shelving put into my bathroom and a couple of fixes around the house just after I bought my home... I love all of my paint and upgrades, and I would definitely use this service in the future as well. It's really fine work!"

"Tony did a wonderful job repairing and painting walls with very high cathedral ceilings. He did the bathroom, kitchen, and entrance hall in a day and a half for a very reasonable cost. The only issue I have is that I called the evening before he painted and told him I wanted to change the color for the front hall, and I still gave him a 4 1/2 because it is not a huge deal to me, but now I need to change the color of the inside of the door. Otherwise a beautiful job."

"We hire 614 Drywall to take care of our popcorn removal and re texture/paint the walls of a 1973 town home in Lakewood. They did an excellent job, work around the electrician’s schedule and patch the holes made by then. I am completely happy with Emilio, he is professional, knowledgeable and have a great customer service orientation. I recommend his company to whoever needs all type of drywall, paint and finishing work."

Customers say: True professional

"I hired Corey with Encompass for an interior painting project in my home, and I couldn't be more satisfied with the results! From start to finish, the experience was seamless. Corey was professional, punctual, and incredibly detail-oriented. He took the time to understand my vision and offered valuable suggestions that enhanced the overall look of my space. The quality of the work is outstanding; the lines are crisp, and the colors are perfect. He ensured that everything was meticulously prepared before painting, protecting my furniture and floors, which I truly appreciated. What stood out the most was his commitment to cleanliness, everything was always left clean and tidy. I highly recommend Corey with Encompass to anyone looking for a skilled and trustworthy painter. I will definitely be reaching out for future projects!"

"It is difficult to assess the quality since it is difficult to see it on the roof or using photos provided. There was a definite miscommunication between people in the company and contractors, but they have got in, finally and the job was done."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Stain is meant to be absorbed by the porous wood, allowing some of the natural grain to show through. With that in mind, you don’t want to add more stain than the wood can absorb, as you risk covering up its natural markings. Generally, two coats is the maximum you should do, although very dense hardwoods may only be able to take a single coat.

Staining a deck is typically less expensive upfront than painting. The cost to stain a deck professionally averages around $850, with most homeowners paying between $550 and $1,250, depending on the deck's size. A DIY staining project can cost less than $100. The cost to paint a deck ranges from $500 to $2,000. While the initial cost of staining is lower, it's important to consider long-term expenses. Paint can last up to 10 years, whereas stain needs to be reapplied every few years, which could lead to higher costs over time.

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.

Whether to brush or roll stain on wood depends on the project and your preference. Brushing is ideal for smaller, intricate areas and offers more control over the application, ensuring thorough coverage and penetration into the wood's grain. 

Conversely, rolling is efficient for more extensive, flat surfaces and can save time. However, it is not always the best fit for textured or uneven wood. Some projects may benefit from combining both methods, using a brush for detail work and a roller for broader areas. Ultimately, the choice between brushing and rolling depends on the specific requirements of your staining project.

Painted decks typically require a new coat about once every ten years. In between new coats, it's best to maintain your deck by regularly removing debris, washing it down with non-abrasive cleaners, and staying ahead of structural issues, such as loose boards and rotting wood. In some cases, painting a small section of your deck affected by damage or the sun can lower your costs and workload.
