"I hired Mr. Ouellette repair cracks in my ceilings(Sheetrock) and to paint them(LR, DR, Hallway). Guy and his crew were very courteous, professional and friendly. They were very prompt. Guy gave me a scheduled date and time and they were Spot on. Canâ t say enough about their communication skills. Over the top! They explained how they would make the repairs and very thorough and â meticulous â when they made them. Since my ceilings were of a fine sand finish, they had to match the paint texture to match it(1967 vintage). After numerous trials, a lot of patience and â finickinessâ on their part an exact match was achieved. But NOT before they made sure I was satisfied with it. It was Perfect! The Crew was very neat, clean and protected all the surroundings, including the walls. When they finished everything was put back in its place. Service by Guy and his Crew was exceptional and beyond what I was expecting. He will be my â One stop Businessâ for future house painting projects!"

They recently completed several projects at my home, including painting the exterior of the house, installing vinyl flooring, and removing a popcorn ceiling in the bathroom. Their work was high quality, done efficiently, and the team was professional and respectful throughout the process. Communication was clear and timely, and they took care to ensure everything was completed to my satisfaction. If you’re looking for a dependable and skilled team for painting or general home updates, CRS Painting is an excellent choice."

"It is very rare that I take the time out of my day to actually sit down and write a review about one of the billions of businesses I have encountered in my life. However, every once in a great while when you come across a business that not only has satisfactorily completed the job they were hired to do, but they weâ re able to exceeded your expectations in numerous ways I feel compelled to do so. Honestly , I feel it is the very least I can do to show Uniques painting just how much I truly appreciated them. In addition to thanking thank them, and letting them know how great of a job they did, I also want to be able to help others who are currently in search of a reputable painting company. If you need a painter, I can guarantee you that you donâ t have to look any further. You donâ t have to read any more reviews, Uniqueâ s Painting Company is the way to go! They were on time every day, always very courteous and professional. They paid attention to detail, and the job was well done. I mean amazing customer service at a great price, how can you go wrong? Just to truly exemplify how happy I was when the job was completed, i want others to know I hired them for an additional two more painting jobs. I also referred my parents and two friends to Uniques painting. All three of my referrals provided very similar feedback and couldnâ t thank me enough for helping them. I know itâ s not always easy to pick a painting company from a some online customer reviews, and possibly a few photos. The majority of the time many of us are left disappointed and frustrated about a painting job we just paid for. So please take my advice, and make sure you hire them! Uniques painting I just want to say thank you again, and any future jobs I need done I know exactly where to go."

Painting questions, answered by experts

Regular cleaning, touch-ups for small defects, and resealing or repainting every 2-3 years help to maintain a vibrant appearance and protection.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.

The easiest way to stain a fence depends on your experience and comfort level with the project. Applying stain with an airless sprayer or pump sprayer might get the stain job done faster, but it can be tricky. Paint rollers and stain brushes are slower but simpler for a DIY project.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

You can weather a new wood fence by applying vinegar with steel wool as a way to fade some of the coloring. You may also find it easier to stain your entire fence a new color instead of trying to get newer fence boards to match an older one.
