"I hired That 1 Painter – Central Iowa to repaint our kitchen, and the entire experience was excellent from start to finish. Samantha was a pleasure to work with — professional, friendly, and responsive. She provided a fair quote and was flexible with scheduling to meet our needs. The work itself was outstanding. Our kitchen has a lot of odd corners and detailed woodwork, but everything was painted with precision. The lines were sharp, and not a single drop of paint landed where it shouldn’t. The job was completed in one day and looked far better than anything I could have done myself. This was truly a hassle-free experience, and the results speak for themselves.

Owner operated. Uses subs for labor & large jobs. Cost is determined by the job. No travel charges. No service charges. May contact through email.

"Andy's crew is very professional and did a great job. My home was difficult to get drywall into. They carried each sheet upstairs. Walls finished very well. Dedicated spray equipment created smooth application of knock down texture. Ceilings Looks great. No damage. No surprises. Priced right, but they weren't the cheapest option. On time. No excuses. They protected my property and cleaned up after themselves. As a property manager, I will definitely use Scott's again."

"Quick to schedule me and good quality of work. UPDATE 8/23/22: Our experience with this company will sound outrageous to any decent human being. We hired them to install a range hood in September 2021. They showed up and did a good job installing it for us. Then they suggested we also install a vent cover which they could make it for us for $200. We thought it would be nice to cover the vent so we agreed and paid them to bring it to us later. Then things started to escalate from here. They promised to drop it off on Oct 6, DID NOT show up. Then on Nov 1, my husband contacted them, they promised to drop it off the second day, DID NOT show up. My husband contacted them three times in December (Dec 1, 16, and 17), and they replied on Dec 17 saying that they would bring it on the 24th, DID NOT show up. Contacted them again on Dec 30, said they would come, DID NOT show up. Ever since then, they stopped replying to our messages. We texted them at least once a month, with NO RESPONSES AT ALL. Yesterday (August 23, 2022), I called them and someone picked up. I confronted them and they told me they NEVER came to where I live to do any job! This is completely unprofessional and outrageous. We gave them the benefit of the doubt but they failed us over and over again. They either deliberately lied to us or they intentionally stole from us! It is disgusting! Today is August 23, 2022. we called them and an automated voice said, this number has a caller restriction which prevents us from calling them!!! We tried to be as civilized as we can but this is beyond unacceptable. If this is how they do business with everyone, then they will be out of business in no time! We will expose them on every platform they are on so no one else will fall for their despicable act!"

Deck Staining questions, answered by experts

When staining a deck, don’t skip surface prep, avoid staining damp or dirty boards, and don’t apply stain in extreme heat, cold, or wet conditions. Never overload the wood with a stain, as too much can cause tackiness or peeling. Also, don’t forget to test a small area first to ensure the color and finish look right.

You’ll want to avoid excessively hot or humid conditions, so it’s best to apply your stain in late spring to early fall. It's also important to watch the weather forecast and aim for days when there isn’t rain expected for at least three days. For new decks, allow the wood to season beforehand for at least four to eight weeks.

Pressure-treated wood can not only be painted and stained, but it should be; doing so will help to prevent surface or deck board cracking. Allow the wood to dry out before painting it, as pressure-treated wood from the hardware store takes longer to dry than kiln-dried lumber. If water beads on the surface, it needs additional time to dry—in fact, it can take weeks or even months to fully dry. As soon as the wood absorbs water on the surface, it is ready to be painted or stained.

Rags used with oil-based stains are highly flammable and can spontaneously combust in the right conditions. To reduce the fire risk, throw them in a metal container after use and add rocks on top to secure them. Add an inch of water and seal the container. Take the rags in the container to a hazardous waste factory as soon as possible.

The best way to protect a deck is to prevent damage from UV light, water, mold, mildew, insects, and abrasive cleaning methods. Sweep regularly to prevent debris that hides bugs and traps moisture that can result in mold or mildew growth. Use a deck cleaner once a year to remove algae, mold, and mildew. Avoid using pressure washers on high, as they can damage the wood. Applying a deck sealant can protect the wood from UV and water damage, and adding shade can also reduce sunlight damage.

By submitting this question, I acknowledge and agree that Angi may publicly display my name, city, state, and question on the website for professionals and others to see.
