"The weekend M&M Painting completed an exterior painting project at my primary residence. Rotted wood and siding was replaced, pressure washing of driveway and siding walk, gutter cleaning was done along with painting of the entire house. They were prompt, very knowledgeable, and friendly. They made sure we were taken care of. Very reliable and affordable. Will use this company again for future projects. Very pleased."

"Dante did the job exactly as discussed for a great price. He showed up on time and had one helper. They completed the job the same day which included painting shutters, metal garage doors and metal exterior doors. We supplied the primer and paint. After finishing the job they cleaned up everything before they left. Dante’s communication was very good and he and his helper were both very polite."

"Excellent handyman! He installed a ceiling fan, replaced a towel rack, and repaired a leaking dishwasher hose. He was professional, informative, and did quality work. We appreciated the helpful suggestions he provided for other home projects. We’ll definitely be hiring him again to paint our fence. Highly recommend, Thank you Drew!"

"Mr. Giles did an incredible job on our home. He built us a brand new deck that’s one of the sturdiest, most impressive additions we’ve made in years — true craftsmanship and pride in his work. He also put together a closet system for my wife and painted the walls and closet with an excellent design aesthetic. She’s thrilled with it. He showed up on time, communicated well, and worked efficiently. What sets Andre apart: he’s not a contractor trying to keep everything in-house. When a job needs extra hands, he brings in the right people to do it right. That honesty is hard to find. He’s worth every penny. We’re already planning to have him stain the deck and redo our basement next. I’m recommending him to family, including older relatives who need trustworthy work done."

Painting FAQs, answered by experts

A five-gallon bucket of deck stain will cover roughly 875 square feet in a single coat. Actual coverage will vary based on the type of wood you’re staining and the number of coats. If you plan on doing multiple coats, multiply the square footage by the number of coats to calculate how many buckets of stain you’ll need.

Yes, staining or sealing a cedar deck or fence is highly recommended to extend its lifespan, typically by five to 10 years. While cedar is naturally resistant to mold and mildew, it can still fall victim to moisture, sun exposure, and rot over time. Applying a treatment creates a protective shield that helps prevent splintering, fading, and decay, preserving the wood's strength and appearance. A combination stain and sealer often provides the best protection, as it soaks into the wood grain rather than just sitting on top. This offers superior defense against UV damage and rot and lasts longer than a sealer alone. To maintain the wood's natural look, consider using a near-translucent stain. You should plan to reapply the stain or sealer every two to three years.

You should stain both sides of your fence to get the full benefits. Fences often fall along property lines, so you may want to save a buck by leaving your neighbor’s side in the dust. If you do that, all you get is a slightly better view. Moisture and UV rays can still sneak in through the side that’s unpainted or worn down and damage your fence. Rot and rust will spread, even if you can’t see it from your side of the lawn.

Wood stain is not flammable after it dries. The solvent in wood stain is what causes the liquid form to be highly flammable, but the stain drying process involves the solvents dissolving, which leaves behind a non-flammable product on your wood project. Wood stain is, however, flammable before you apply it, so you should always store partially full cans and used wood stain rags away from sources of heat and open flames.

While power washing isn't a requirement before you stain a fence, it can make the job much easier and faster while reducing manual labor requirements. The stain will not work if the wood is full of dirt and dust, so power washing, sometimes called pressure washing, is a fast and effective way to prepare the wood for staining. Remember that you need to stain or repaint relatively soon after the wood has dried so that there isn’t time for dust and dirt to build up again.
