"We hired James to paint the entire interior of our home (walls, ceilings, trim, etc), as well as caulk all the new molding throughout the house, and paint all the doors - interior and exterior - and stain our front door. He did an excellent job. He worked clean and efficiently, and was able to get the job done in a good amount of time. The entire job took about 10 days. He was honest and accommodating to any changes, and when we asked about doing some jobs, he was honest and advised on how it may look (perhaps not as good as I���d want it to look) and what would be required, (even if it meant that he was talking himself out of work!) which I appreciated. He was professional and very responsive to my emails, texts, and calls. I would highly recommend his company and services to anyone who is looking for a great painter. Had a really wonderful experience and will use him for all our painting needs moving forward!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

It’s often best to spray on deck sealer. Sprayers can apply sealant more quickly and evenly than rolling while still enabling you to reach tight spaces. When using a sprayer, always use a low-pressure setting at a close distance to ensure an even application. Avoid using sprayers on windy days.

You can refresh a painted deck by either giving it a thorough cleaning or refinishing the deck altogether. Chipped or faded paint, as well as extensive damage, often calls for a new finish. To do this, remove the original coat of paint with a sander and add either a new coat of paint or a stain to protect the wood below.

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. 

It’s best to use an exterior latex acrylic paint to promote maximum adhesion to composite decking. This flexible paint type can better cope with the natural expansion and contraction that can occur with composite deck boards. Oil-based paints won’t adhere as effectively and are more likely to crack and peel as the boards flex. Testing whether your chosen paint will stick on an inconspicuous section or a spare board is a good idea.

Choosing the best color for your home exterior should factor in longevity as well as your personal taste. To keep your house looking newly painted as long as possible, stay away from red paint. Although red homes pop and are quintessential for country-style barns, red paint tends to fade fastest in the sun. Go with earth tones if you want paint that best resists fading.
