"We had an excellent experience with this paint company from start to finish. Their team was highly professional and clearly took pride in their work. They went above and beyond when it came to prepping the walls—carefully patching and smoothing areas to ensure a flawless final result. Communication was outstanding throughout the entire process. They kept us informed every step of the way, especially when it came to any adjustments or the need for additional coats, which we really appreciated. They also maintained a very clean workspace and left everything spotless once the job was done. The attention to detail and commitment to quality truly stood out. We are extremely happy with how everything turned out and would absolutely hire them again. Highly recommend to anyone looking for reliable, high-quality painting services."

"Mr. Rodriguez did a thorough job of painting a kitchen cabinet. He advised me on using a special type primer to cover the chipping on the cabinet. I recommend him. I will use his services to do additional work."

"I have a large deck with a grape vine top. It was in dire need of repairs(washing, sanding, replacing rotted wood, staining) I called J. Corrigan from Angie's list. He arrived estimated and I contracted with him. His team arrived and an excellent job was performed in the amount of time given. I will be calling them again for other projects. "Thanks Joe and team for a job well done.""

"Dani and his team are fantastic. I had them paint 3 rooms and a hallway. During the quote phase Dani was able to give me advice when I was unsure and I was very happy with how it worked out. Additionally during the painting process he made sure to keep me up to date on where they were. 2 colors needed a 3rd coat and he was upfront about cost. When he took me to see the final product I was blown away by their hard work and cleanliness. I would hire them again!"

"Very professional and honest. Bartek took his time to go through all my options, very knowledgeable and patient. He gave me a fair estimate and kept his price without any “additional cost.” He did a beautiful job repainting my apartment. Detail oriented and very clean. I’m definitely using his services again."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Yes, you must thoroughly clean your deck before staining. If you don't, dirt, debris, grease, and mildew can get trapped between the wood and the new stain. This not only looks unsightly but also prevents the stain from penetrating the wood properly, reducing its ability to protect the deck from weather and UV rays. As a result, the stain won't last as long or look as good. Any existing mold or mildew left untreated can continue to grow beneath the new stain, potentially leading to wood rot and structural damage. Always wait at least 48 hours after cleaning for the wood to dry completely before applying stain.

Essential tools include brushes or rollers, drop cloths, sandpaper or power sanders, and appropriate cleaning supplies. Quality materials ensure long-lasting results.

You’ll need to wait until the surface is completely dry, which can take anywhere from 24 to 48 hours under optimal conditions. The waiting period depends on several factors, including the type of siding and the weather conditions. Trying to paint before the surface is completely dry can trap moisture under the paint, leading to bubbling, blistering, and mold growth.

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.

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.
