"Used them for painting kitchen cabinets. Did a meticulous job prepping and sealing off the work area. Final job was excellent. Cleaned everything up each day and did a beautiful job overall. Also had them paint some outside work and it was well done and reasonably priced. Nice guys too! From now on I wouldn t use anyone else."

"When I initially found jose it was just to power wash my back deck, he came the next day and I decided to get the deck redone, stain and paint. He did just that and he replaced my back door! He is extremely reliable, professional, and affordable. Some things I wanted to replace but he gives advice to save you money. He doesn't try to rip you off like some contractors out here and I trust him. So much that he is back 2 months later currently giving my kitchen and bathroom a face-lift. He is always on time and stays to his time frame. He works hard and he goes throughout the weekend and holidays to complete the job. I would def recommend him and JC. He will be contractor for all my needs. I'll be back to talk about my kitchen and bathroom when I finished. Next will be my basement!"

Out of the three estimates I got they were the most reasonable and in the end my house looks amazing!!I had my entire exterior painted including the shutters,my stucco repaired and painted ,and the entire garage painted. I would highly recommend them !!"

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

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.

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

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

Yes, many repair services include repainting to match the color of the existing siding or walls. Most professionals offer this service to ensure the repaired area blends in seamlessly.
