He is a true professional finished the job on time and on budget. The house looks great, and I would use Flopro Painting for my next project. Robert H. Port Charlotte, FL"

"Extremely happy with the job. Bluefox Painting washed the tile roof of our single-family home, pressure washed, repaired and painted the entire exterior walls, including the garage door, the exterior lamps, all the trim and the main door. The crew was here with a supervisor on time and on the day we had scheduled. We had no issues with the job nor the paint colors that were chosen. Top-notch service and quality of the job, we highly recommend them."

"We had a new construction house and Ted did the entire thing. Exterior, interior, staining doors, cabinets…EVERYTHING! They did a phenomenal job. Our ceilings are about 20 Ft up so it was not an easy task but we couldn’t have been happier with Ted and his crew. Would recommend them all day every day!"

"Miguel and crew were awesome! They set a date, showed up on time, and worked all day to get the painting job done. He has since followed up twice and will be making a quick stop by to do perform a few touch ups per our request. We will call Dr Home for our future painting and wood refinishing need. Thank you."

"I recently hired Fresh Coat Painters for an exterior paint job on my home, and I couldn't be more impressed. From the initial consultation to the final walk-through, the team was professional, punctual, and detail-oriented. They helped me choose the right color and finish for Florida weather, and their prep work — including pressure washing, scraping, and caulking — was top-notch. The paint application was clean and even, with sharp lines and no mess left behind. My house looks brand new! I’ve already received compliments from neighbors. Highly recommend Fresh Coat Painters for anyone looking for reliable and high-quality exterior painting."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Your tool of choice ultimately comes down to personal preference. Many DIYers prefer applying stain with a lint-free rag, but others stick with a paint brush or a roller. Wipe the stain and work it into the wood, working with and against the grain. If you’re applying multiple coats, allow the stain to dry for around four hours between coats.

Wood stain does go bad, but it will last in the can for between three and six years, provided you use proper storage techniques. Storing wood stain in open containers or in extremely low or high temperatures will cause your wood stain to become unusable much more quickly. Water- and latex-based wood stains typically last for just two to four years, while oil-based wood stains can last for three to six years.

Satin paint is generally considered a better choice for woodwork—including trim, baseboards, cabinets, and doors—than flatter finishes like eggshell or matte. Its soft sheen enhances architectural details and stands up well to frequent cleaning and daily wear. Compared to eggshell and matte finishes, satin is more durable for high-touch areas because it is less porous and doesn't absorb dirt as easily. Matte finishes, in particular, are prone to scuffs and are harder to clean, making them less practical for surfaces like doors and cabinets.

It’s necessary for paint to completely dry before exposure to rain, and that drying time varies by the type of paint used. Oil-based paint takes 6 to 8 hours to dry on average, meaning that’s the minimum time needed between the last brush stroke and the first raindrop. Latex paint dries faster at around 1 hour, and acrylic paint is even quicker, usually drying in about 30 minutes. If rain is in the forecast, check the paint manufacturer's details before laying on a new coat. 

Yes, you can and should paint or stain pressure-treated wood, as this helps prevent the surface from cracking. However, it is crucial to wait for the wood to dry out completely from the chemical treatment process before applying a finish. If the wood is still wet, the paint will not adhere properly. The drying time can range from weeks to six months. To test if the wood is ready, drip some water onto a board. If the water is absorbed, the wood is dry enough for painting or staining. If the water beads up on the surface, it needs more time to dry. You can build with the wood while it's still wet, but you must wait for it to dry before painting.
