"Ted was referred to me by a friend in the neighborhood who was very pleased with his work. When we met he gave me a sense of confidence and I could tell from our conversation he was trustworthy. I was uncertain about the paint color. He showed several options from the paint chips he had with him. Because I was somewhat hesitant to make the decision, he left the paint chip palette with me so I could take some time to make a final decision. We made the final decision, but I was going out of town for a 2-week vacation which would delay the start time. He suggested that they could do the painting while we were gone and explained that he would take down all of the draperies, move the furniture, and have it all placed back exactly as we had it when we came back. My husband was also confident that he was trustworthy, so we hired him. He did exactly as he said he said he would. The house was perfectly in order and the paint was beautifully done. Ted and his crew are simply exceptional."

"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

You don't need to seal your deck after painting it because most exterior paints are waterproof and weather-resistant. While stealing is not necessary, it can add an additional layer of protection.

Liquid rubber is great for waterproofing, but it can damage your deck if it’s not applied correctly. First, it can trap moisture in the wood if the deck isn’t completely dry before application.  Second, applying it too thickly can create a heavy, rubbery surface layer that peels and cracks under fluctuating temperatures. For the best results, ensure the wood is completely dry before application, and apply the liquid rubber in thin, even coats. A quick inspection every now and then will help you catch any issues early, keeping your deck protected and looking its best.

If you don’t treat a cedar fence, it will turn from reddish brown to gray over time. You can keep the cedar from graying and retain its attractive, deep red color by sealing your cedar fence with a stain that keeps the wood’s oils in and serves as a barrier against the sun’s UV rays.

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.

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.
