"This is a great option for painting your house. The crew did an excellent job. They were on time and worked very well together as a team. Pressure washing was excellent. All paint to house was sprayed and backrolled with two coats. Fascia, soffit and gutters were sprayed, or hand rolled. No drips or errors. Victor is great to work with and answered the phone EVERY time we called! We will use them for our indoor project next year. Pricing was very fair. Not cheap or expensive. but fair. An excellent option for painting your house, in my opinion."

"We had Leo clean and paint our driveway and concrete pool deck and porch. He works clean and works with meticulous attention to detail. It just looks stunning. He is always on time and explains what he will be doing as he goes. Even his proposals are in great detail and he double checks color choices just prior to avoid mistakes. I have already referred him to several friends with great confidence. There are several other projects that need to be done, and I plan to call on him when we are ready."

"Juan and Anthony did a remarkable job with prepping our house and shed to be painted. The paint job is fabulous and we couldn’t be happier with it. They were such a joy to work with. They were great with my hubby being out there watching and asking questions. We will certainly refer anyone we know who needs their home painted. Juan is a true professional and a down right good man and his son Anthony is remarkable young man with a work ethnic that most adults, could you learn from. We have made plans to do things together outside of this job , as friends. Thank you very much for the wonderful job you did for us. We are truly grateful for all your hard work. God bless this family."

"We highly recommend Nelson Brothers Painting!! Larry and Gary are very knowledgeable and experienced professionals with high attention to detail. They did a superb job, at a reasonable price, on painting the exterior of our stucco home, including, all doors and dormer. We had asked for options to paint the soffits and fascia, pool deck, and shed. In their proposal, they broke out the costs for the options as requested, which we in turn, had them include everything. We liked the fact that both Larry and Gary did the initial site visit to develop their proposal, as it is always better to talk directly to the people who will be doing the work. The Nelson brothers were always very personable and professional and eager to please. They finished right on schedule and we appreciated the constant communication, ensuring that we were happy with the daily progress being made. Larry and Gary always cleaned up the area around the house at the end of the workday. They do very high-quality work and aim to please!!"

"I'd give 10 stars if I could. The quote was accurate and fair, and the team was wonderful! They showed up on time and the walk-through was smooth. They had paint on the wall right away and the final touches made the difference - the paint looks GREAT. The crew leader Trina, was terrific, and the whole team worked great under her direction. I would not think twice about hiring them again!!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

Staining a deck with a rag is typically a better option than using a brush, as it helps the stain penetrate deeper into the wood. However, both brushes and rags are best reserved for detailed work because using these tools on an entire deck can require tediously crawling around on your hands and knees. A pad applicator, sprayer, or roller are preferred alternatives to applying stain over the majority of a deck. Use a rag for railings and other detailed work, and let the wood soak up as much of the stain as possible before wiping away drips or pools.

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.

Yes, it's a good idea to sand the wall with fine-grit sandpaper after spackling, especially if you plan on painting. You can do this by hand or using a sander, but the idea is to ensure the spackle is flush with the wall. Sanding will give your wall a smooth, uniform finish and help your paint and wallpaper stay put.

Yes, you can waterproof any wood that has not already been treated. A good way to test this is to splash some water on it. If the water starts to bead up, the wood is treated and most likely doesn’t need another coating.

Applying a sealer or topcoat after staining wood is highly recommended, though not always strictly required. A sealer protects the wood from moisture, UV rays, and weather-related issues, which is especially important for outdoor surfaces like decks and fences. It also enhances the stain's durability, prevents fading over time, and gives the wood a cleaner, more professional-looking finish. For some indoor applications, a sealer may not be necessary, depending on the type of stain used and the level of protection needed. It's always best to check the stain manufacturer's recommendations and consider the wood's intended use and exposure when deciding whether to apply a sealer.
