"This was my second time using Sunrise Quality Painting and the quality was equally as good as the first. Nick and the team arrive 7AM each day to complete a careful and thorough paint job on the entire inside of the home. They cover the existing smoke smell of the home and vastly improved the appearance. I would recommend them to anyone who is looking for a quick and quality paint job."

"Carlsons did a great job outside painting our home. Also painted our pool screen enclosure and our cool deck. In addition they added a small fence section to hide garbage containers and AC unit. We also had an outside bathroom door replaced and painted. Carlsons team did a great job. There were a few minor things that needed retouch, I pointed them out and they came back and satisfactorily retouched everything we pointed out. I highly recommend them."

"We hired David and his team to paint the exterior of our 3 story home along with trim and decking. They were VERY timely and did it very efficiently and did such a great job. They left behind no mess and all the trim work looked perfect. I have referred them to other friends and family and would recommend them to anyone looking to have painting done at a fair price. We will use again."

Customers say: True professional

"We needed someone to paint the exterior of the house and replace some posts and panels for a stretch of fence that had rotted and come down in the wind. A couple of quotes I got were crazy high…and them Sami and his son came out The price they quoted was excellent; now I just had to see if they knew what they were doing. Happily, Sami is the real deal. He cut in the painting expertly and did an excellent job overall, cleaning up after himself as he went. The fence was a bear, as the rotted posts were still anchored in concrete. He and his son dug the cement out, poured new cement, set new poles and reattached the existing panels. The work was professional, the results look great and the price was very reasonable. Now, they are my go to guys for any handyman projects that come up. Highly recommend!"

"After I described the details of what I hoped to get from my Pool Deck Refinish project, Matt began to explain the tasks needed to get what I wanted. I could tell by his confident demeanor that this was someone I could trust to get it done, and done right. The quote for the work was received on the same day. The work was scheduled a few days after our agreed-upon price. A price that was easy to accept. Pleased with our deal, Volvo, my assigned painter made the deal all the more worth the price. His attention to detail and concern for my agreement with each planned task were comforting. The finished work was far beyond our expectations. Thank you Matt for sending Volvo to refinish our pool deck and for the timely and reasonable offer. Will strongly recommend your company to our neighbors."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Ipe wood can last up to 75 years with minimal maintenance because its own oils help to preserve it. However, to get the most out of your Ipe wood deck, you should perform some routine maintenance, including regular cleaning, sweeping of leaves and debris, and rinsing spills with a hose. It’s also important to repair any deep scratches as soon as you spot them and reseal the deck annually to protect against scratches and scuffs.

While the answer varies based on weather, 10 a.m. is a good time to start painting. The dew will have dried, meaning there’s no moisture on the house, and the temperature will likely be moderate and the sunlight less direct. Starting mid-morning should also give you enough daylight and pleasant weather to work on the job for several hours.

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.

DIY is possible but presents risks of uneven surfaces or improper adhesion; professionals offer expertise to ensure a lasting finish.
