"Tibi is super conscientious, fair priced, and hard working. After dealing with painters for various jobs over the past five years, Tibi is the most honest and professional painter I've come across in the Sarasota area. He is detail oriented, can spray, roll, and cut in, and his crew is experienced and reliable. I strongly recommend Painting by Tibi. I will gladly hire him again."

"I recently had the interior of my home painted, and I couldn’t be happier with the results. The work was clean, detailed, and very professional from start to finish. He took the time to prep everything properly, protected my floors and furniture, and paid close attention to every detail. The finish looks amazing, and the place feels brand new. He was punctual, respectful of my home, and easy to work with. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for quality painting work."

"Carter is awesome. He painted cabinets, installed a new counter and backsplash as well as put a new vanity, fixture and mirror in one of our bathrooms. Everything done within a week. Always punctual and follows through on his commitments. He and his team were excellent and completed the work (and there was a lot of it) quickly. I will use him again for things at our place in the future!"

"Mark personally was very attentive to detail, he made sure the job was completed in a timely manner. Our house was kinda dirty to begin with, but upon completion of the job, his crew went above and beyond to clean up not only their mess but sweep the place clean. It was perfect. Couldnâ t ask for better service. We will definitely use their services again for exterior painting next year. Thank you Mark"

Painting questions, answered by experts

The general consensus is that two coats of stain are required and since the cedar is siding, a third coat of sealant is always a good idea. This helps protect the wood and stain, so you won’t need to resand and restain for at least a decade. Each stain after the first will darken the wood, so be aware of that when choosing a colored stain.

Wood stain is typically dry to the touch within 6 to 12 hours, but it is not fully cured at this point. You should wait at least 24 hours before applying a second coat or a protective finish. For surfaces like decks, avoid walking on them for at least 24 to 48 hours, and wait even longer before placing furniture. The full curing process can take from 24 hours to one week, depending on the type of stain. Factors like high humidity and cold temperatures can extend drying and curing times, so it's wise to allow for extra time in these conditions.

If you want to achieve a deeper, darker stain color, wait 5 to 10 minutes before wiping it off. However, wipe it off faster for a lighter tone. When wiping off the stain during this part of the process, be sure to work in the direction of the wood’s grain for best results.

The easiest way to stain a fence depends on your experience and comfort level with the project. Applying stain with an airless sprayer or pump sprayer might get the stain job done faster, but it can be tricky. Paint rollers and stain brushes are slower but simpler for a DIY project.

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood to help prevent the boards from cracking. However, you must wait for the wood to dry out completely before applying any finish. Freshly treated wood can take weeks or even months to dry; a common recommendation is to wait three to six months. To check if the wood is ready, perform a simple water test: drip some water onto the surface. If the water beads up, the wood is still too wet and needs more time to dry. If the wood absorbs the water, it is dry enough to be painted or stained. You can proceed with building your deck or fence while the wood is still wet, but you will need to wait to apply the paint or stain.
