"Clei was wonderful to work with. He kept me updated constantly and was very responsive to all my requests…he even suggested the perfect color for my shutters after the samples I chose didn’t work out! He also repaired and painted my old deck, which everyone else said couldn’t be done, making it look like new. He did a beautiful job on both my house and my deck, and I highly recommend him. I will definitely use him for any future painting jobs."

"Nixon repaired two very extensive cracks in our Corian sink that others did not want to deal with. He also fixed more problems that we were not aware of but could readily see when he showed them to us. Nixon saved us the cost of replacing the whole Corian kitchen counter top and potentially future large water damage. He is easy to deal with and provides prompt service."

"Hired to paint entire interior of my condo which included removal of popcorn ceiling. The job was done beautifully and the price was reasonable and competitive when compared to other quotes. Jacob was a pleasure to work with, he kept my timeframe for getting the work done in mind. Highly recommended Propainters."

"Esteban Vazquez the owner of Taurus Painting is extremely courteous, hard working and efficient. I have lived in the CT area for 13 yrs and have had my house painted 3 X and never have i had such a fantastic job! Esteban went beyond just painting in fixing rotten wood etc. He started when he said he would, worked from 8-5 everyday and finished when EVERYTHING was painted (actually stained) His entire crew was polite and hard working. If I could have rated him a 10, I would have! Taurus Painting deserves an A++++++"

"Initally it took some back and forth conversations with the sales rep to get them to match their competitors bid but they did come through on their promise. Although it did take a few pointers with the paint crew to make sure they understood the job and the quality of work we were expecting we are very pleased with the outcome. The painters were friendly and easy to work with. I do think the company should invest in some lifts or something as there was quit a bit of inefficiency with them trying to paint our 21 ft ceilings with ladders? They had to have two guys hold the ladder while one guy painted. I'm thinking the lift would pay for itself in a few jobs just with the savings in productivity alone? As a result it took a lot longer to complete the job. But over-all very pleased with the work and the experience. I will hire them again when we need the outside of the house painted."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It is not always necessary to remove old stain before restaining a deck. If the previous stain is in good condition and is compatible with the new stain, you may be able to apply a new coat after thorough cleaning. However, if the old stain is in bad condition, flaking, or peeling, it is best to remove it completely to ensure an even surface and proper adhesion for the new coat. Staining over a damaged layer can lead to an uneven finish and poor penetration. For best results, test a small area first and consult the stain manufacturer's guidelines.

The number of coats you need to apply when whitewashing a surface depends on how opaque you want the final product to be. If you're going for a transparent, barely there look, a single coat or two may suffice. For fuller coverage, you'll want to use multiple coats. Another option is to use a less diluted paint to get a thicker coverage. 

Wet-sanding and dry-sanding each have pros and cons. Dry-sanding is less messy, so it’s a good option if you’re trying to minimize dust (for example, if you’re sanding an occupied home or working with particularly dry or dusty drywall mud). However, dry-sanding is quicker because you don’t have to keep rinsing a sponge or wait for it to dry before painting.

Whether you can paint over your existing paint depends on what’s on there. Most of the time, you’ll want to sand down or scrape off the paint that’s currently coating your surface. Epoxy paint, for example, won’t let new paint stick to the surface. Latex paint is more forgiving and will accept a new coat, but a primer is recommended if you’re switching colors.

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.
