"Erin and his team did a remarkable job. Erin promised to get our rental painted and some carpentry work completed in four days and they met their deadline. Not only did they do a great job, Erin is an excellent communicator and wrote a detailed contract that we appreciated."

"I am recommending HDRYWALL to anyone with drywall needs or painting! Harry and his guys know what they are doing when it comes to a job like this. I had all my popcorn removed and the orange peel texture is beautiful that they applied! Thank you Harry and crew!"

"John did an amazing job painting my apartment and I would definitely hire him again. I had several estimates and by far John’s price was the most reasonable and his paint job was fabulous. Please give a chance and you will not be disappointed. He is a good family man who is willing to work hard to earn your business. Thank you John!"

"Leo's Painting

We liked the job ultimately that Leo's Painting did, there was a couple little things that slipped through the cracks which maybe part their fault and part mine. One was, I am not sure if he put in mildew sides, we discussed before and I didn't follow it up like I should of and I have a feeling it wasn't put in. The job they did was very good, I had no problems with any of the people, they were punctual and in general it was a good experience compared to other experiences I have had in the city.."

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

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.

Generally, these steps are included in exterior house painting:

  • Prepping and protecting the areas not being painted

  • Scraping away loose paint

  • Cleaning off dirt, grease, and debris

  • Caulking gaps and openings

  • Priming with a quality paint primer

  • Painting the prepared areas, including trim and accents with chosen paint finish

  • Adding a second coat

  • Cleaning up the site and disposing of tape, plastic, and drop cloths

A properly applied coat of stain will last between 3 and 8 years, depending on your climate. If you live in a place where your fence experiences a lot of moisture or high heat, your stain will last for a shorter period than in more temperate conditions. We recommend reapplying stain every 3 to 5 years to keep your wood in good condition.

For the longest-lasting exterior paint, consider acrylic or enamel (oil-based) paints. Acrylic paints, including acrylic latex and acrylic enamel, are known for withstanding harsh weather and sun exposure. Enamel-based paints are also one of the most durable options available. While latex paint is common, it typically has a shorter lifespan than acrylic or oil-based options. The paint's finish also affects its durability; a higher gloss finish is generally more durable. For resistance to moisture and cracking, matte and satin finishes can be effective, while a high-gloss acrylic or oil-based paint offers a combination of maximum longevity and durability.

When applying multiple coats, wait four to six hours for each coat to dry. Not waiting long enough can result in streaks, peeling, and uneven color. Plus, it will be more difficult to discern where the second coat has already been applied.
