"Hutchinson custom paint was fantastic to work with - Michael Hutchinson runs the show and provides excellent service at a good value. We used Michael to paint our condo 8 years ago and the paint job held up so well that it was an easy decision to hire again to paint the interior of our new house. Michael was able to do the work in the time frame we needed and the results look fantastic. Michael has a great eye for paint colors and how they will look before they go on a wall. He can guide you on accent walls (or talk you out of them!) or other design choices. He's been in the business for a long time and provides a very professional experience. I highly recommend Hutchinson Custom Painting for any and all of your painting projects!"

"I have been waiting for a contractor for three months that was going to replace a closet door. I saw an ad for Angi in my email so I checked it out. Within 1 day I was contacted and the owner of D. Fuentes Painting showed up and gave me a reasonable quote to install and paint the door. Within 2 days I had the door installed and painted by a professional crew. I am very happy with the results and would highly recommend Mr. Jose Yanes company, D. Fuentes Painting. Top notch company!!"

"I highly recommend Emerald Painting. Roland was incredibly responsive and helpful with suggestions. His crew was professional, efficient, and skilled. We love the finished product - new exterior paint on a brick row house, repaired and painted concrete steps and porch, painted steel rail, and stained wooden deck. I will hire Roland and Emerald Painting for all similar future projects."

"Mr. Mendez and his crew did an excellent job with our skylights installation and painting our shutters and also painting our kitchen and family room. He is very responsive and completed the work very efficiently. Will definitely be calling him again for more painting projects. Highly recommend him. UPDATED AS OF 02/27/2022: Mr. Mendez also replaced our stair railing. He built everything from scratch. He also replaced some light fixtures. He does so much more besides painting. We plan on calling him when we renovate our lower family room."

"Ferney and his team did an excellent job of taking down old walls, replacing portions of the ceiling and walls, building new walls, and installing electrical outlets and switches. They installed new doors and molding and prepared the new walls for painting, including priming the walls. They took pride in their workmanship and on several occasions worked well into the night, to get the project completed as soon as possible. They provided professional recommendations to ensure that the end result was the best possible. They were professional throughout this project."

"Edward and his team did a fantastic job staining our new hybrid deck and painting the front porch! They worked meticulously to tape around all the composite wood before staining the deck. It was a significant amount of work at a very reasonable price. Edward also returned to the house to touch up a few spots after the team was finished. Lastly, he was very flexible with the timing of the project, as we had to push the start date back a bit when something came up. Weâ d highly recommend D. Fuentes Painting for any painting or staining project!"

Painting questions, answered by experts

You can apply stain over peeling stain, but it’s not a good idea. Your old stain will get in the way of your new stain bonding to the wood, so you’re likely going to see the same issue again shortly after application. Your best option is to sand off the old stain and clean the surface thoroughly before applying new stain.

The best finish for wrought iron railings is either a semi-gloss or a gloss sheen, as each offers good durability against rain, wind, heat, cold, and snow. 

Choose based on climate, finish preference (glossy, matte), and durability. Tailored coatings also provide longevity.

Yes, many fence repair services include finishing treatments like sanding, priming, repainting, coating, and rust treatment. These services help restore the fence's original appearance, protect it from corrosion, and enhance its aesthetic appeal. However, since offerings can vary by provider, it is best to confirm what is included before scheduling the work.

Painting or staining protects fences from environmental damage, enhances durability, and improves curb appeal with a fresh, customized look.
