"I cannot say enough good things about A M Painting. Anthony removed the popcorn ceiling from our entire house, painted the walls in our foyer, and painted/refinished our kitchen cabinets. He wasn’t even finished with the ceilings and walls when we asked if he could do the cabinets too and he started those almost immediately after we brought it up. It was by no means a small project. By the time he was done we had a completely different looking beautiful modernized house. Anthony worked quickly and efficiently. He is very professional and personable, very responsive, and kept us updated on his progress throughout the entire project. And his work is just absolutely flawless. I can’t stop staring at how beautiful our cabinets look now. For high quality, efficient work for a very reasonable price I absolutely recommend A M Painting."

"Double Diamond Painting We canâ t say enough good things about Double Diamond Painting and its owner Brian Schaller. Heâ s been in the painting business for many years training many crews. He now has a truly professional handpicked crew that donâ t have to be told what to do. Iâ m a perfectionist and have always done things myself but at 70 Iâ m no longer able to climb ladders. I interviewed several painting companies. I could tell that Brian would be best for the job of painting the exterior of our home. Itâ s so rare to find people that care about their job and take pride in their work. The whole crew went beyond the call. I watched a neighbor get ripped off as a power washing company did the whole two story house from the ground. Double Diamond did it the right way by power-washing from a ladder so they were not shooting under the clapboards and not doing an inferior job. Preparation is the most important part of a good job. They scraped, sanded, and primed everything that needed special care. In the end it looks like a new home even though weâ ve been here for 40 years. Our heartfelt thanks to Brian and his professional crew. Did I mention Double Diamond was the lowest price of all I interviewed? We would highly recommend them for all your painting needs."

"I have not contacted Danilo as of yet, so my review is not a fair one. Although I am VERY pleased with Danilo's work in cleaning the gutters, However, the solution he used left stains on my window pains and I recently had all my windows cleaned professionally - Normally, I would just clean them myself, but age has deterred me from doing so.

"CertaPro Painters of Mystic - Glastonbury did an excellent job of painting the exterior of our house. They were very easy to work with and were careful not to damage any of the roses and other bushes around the house. They completed the job quickly and efficiently and now our house looks wonderful with its new coat of paint!"

"If you're looking for a company to do a quality professional paint job at an affordable rate I highly recommend Jonathan at Unique's Painting! I submitted a request for an interior paint project on the Angi app. Jonathan not only contacted me immediately, he also came to my house that same day to give me a quote. I hired him to paint 3 rooms in my new home. The existing paint job was horribly done and almost every wall was left with small holes and lumpy bumpy surfaces. Jonathan and his team did an amazing job at filling, sanding, & prepping the walls and trim prior to painting and as a result the final paint job in all 3 rooms turned out fantastic!! During the process Jonathan even repaired several damaged areas on the tin ceiling before painting it and sent me video updates since I wasn't there. I will definitely be calling Unique's Painting for all my future paint projects and you should too!!"

"KBG Constuction did amazing work for us. They have been very professional, friendly, and understanding to our needs, and did exactly what we asked for. They were on time, responsive, and completed the job very quickly with quality results we are very happy with. Specifically, we had a room that had extensive water damage, drywall and ceilings had to be replaced. We had hired a handyman to do the job originally, but he ended up doing poor quality work and stopped showing up. It was starting to become a nightmare. That's when we found KBG Construction and we had the job corrected and finished, sheetrock, ceilings, trim, paint all done in short order - we were and still are amazed at how nice everything came out, with no stress. Thanks KBG, glad we found you!"

Painting FAQs, 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.

Opt for an interior wood stain that is rated for your type of wood. Consider your personal style preferences as well as the overall use of the room when choosing a color. Remember, the color you see at the store may look different on your actual floors once applied. This is why if you have the chance, it’s helpful to test a few options on a scrap piece of wood in the room first. Once you narrow it down, you can test a small patch on an inconspicuous area in the room to see it on the actual floors.

You should repaint your fence every 1 to 3 years, depending on the appearance of wear and tear. Weather and usage will factor into how often you should paint another coat on your fence. If you need to replace a few fence boards or posts, you may want to consider repainting the fence to help protect the rest of the fence as well as the new pieces against damage and deterioration from being exposed to the elements.

Wood stains last anywhere from two to five years, depending on exposure to the elements, your local climate, the type of stain, and the surface it’s on. For instance, vertical surfaces last longer than horizontal surfaces. Some types of woods, like dense hardwoods, will require a recoat yearly, as they are too dense for the stain to absorb. In any event, apply a recoat every 2 to 4 years. As for storage, a can of unopened stain can last up to 5 years, though results may vary.

If it rains after you paint your fence, you may need to apply another coat of paint after the fence thoroughly dries. This will ensure a good seal if the rain weakened any areas of the paint. However, if your paint had enough time to dry thoroughly before it rained, you should have no problem.
