"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."

"They are unsurpassed. Keith and his team of painters were friendly and truly knowledgeable. I see why they have the name of Meticulous because they are. My house needed a lot of prepping and repair work it had been over 15 years since the last time painted. They accepted the challenge and did some great work. Our family and neighbors really liked the results. I would highly recommend Keith and the Meticulous team for any painting projects."

"Mikalai expertly repaired extensive areas of head-to-reach wood trim and fascia on the exterior of our 35-year-old house. Some of the trim required highly skilled craftsmanship. When finished, the woodwork looked seamless and like-new. The complex external crown-like molding (cornice) matched perfectly. I can highly recommend him."

"It was a most pleasant experience working with Jay, Robert and their crew. I have been extremely happy with the end result and the quality of their work. They also painted my pool deck and patio in addition to the exterior of the house and it's just beautiful!. The stucco work needed was done professionally as well. Contacting them was a breeze as well and Jay was quick to respond to my requests/questions. I highly recommend Attract Home Improvement for your painting needs."

Deck Staining FAQs, answered by experts

Provided conditions are ideal, staining an entire deck should take as little as a couple of hours and up to a couple of days to apply and cure. Additional procedures, like sealing a deck or using additional treatments, may extend the project by a few additional days.

It’s best to prime composite decking before painting. This promotes better paint adhesion, helps create a smooth finish, and can mean the paint job will last longer. Always follow the manufacturer’s instructions for application, allow ample primer drying time before painting (typically 24 to 48 hours), and thoroughly clean the deck boards to promote the best adhesion.

100% acrylic latex lasts the longest for most siding. Premium 100% acrylic products carry lifetime warranties against peeling, blistering, and fading. Match the grade to your surface and climate for the best lifespan.

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. 

Staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan and protect it from the elements. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it is not impervious to damage from moisture, sun exposure, splintering, fading, and rot over time. Applying a protective finish creates a shield that preserves the wood's strength and appearance, potentially extending its life by five to 10 years.

When choosing a finish, it's helpful to understand the difference between a sealer and a stain. A sealer sits on top of the wood, whereas a combination stain and sealer soaks into the top layer. Because it penetrates the wood, a stain generally offers better protection against UV damage and rot and lasts significantly longer. For the best results that also preserve the wood's natural color, consider using a near-translucent stain.

To maintain protection, plan on reapplying the stain or sealer every two to three years, either as a DIY project or by hiring a professional.
